The FCC understands it very well. The problem is that WISP's are not well
known as far as where, how many, and what speeds they serve......ever wonder
why they have been pushing the Form 477? This yet another example of how
trying to stay under the Radar is going to come back and bite the industry
in the butt. Who knows, if they do a good job of USF reform and a WISP is in
a very rural area, they may be entitled to RECEIVE USF funds on a monthly
basis. But of course if we cannot quantify the WISP industry and/or show a
good coverage area, the policy makers will have no choice but to make
decisions based on what they have in front of them for information.....maybe
it's time to dust off the National WISP map again and do another push to
improve that.


Thank You,
Brian Webster
