No. I self financed. There was another township that did go to the voters near me. One passed and another failed.

You too can start a telco and do this. Like I said it was just $1k to get on the list.

The numbers are to be believed, I can tweet usage graphs aside from what's in the slides. 5Mbps per subscriber on average. Some pull as much as 20Mbps and the big peaks are when my…

No problem, you're asking to see photos of my baby, I can talk about my baby all day :-)

It's pretty easy, I just sell myself an easement on the property for $1 before I sell to someone else. I can also just move the electronics somewhere else. The nice thing about fib…

the issue with this approach is if you depend on it, it may just go away some day, either with the police called and if they track it back to you, you may be prosecuted under the l…

that's what i did. there also are not poles the whole way, so with some drilling, it's easier to just drill the whole way. plus if someone digs it up, i can go after them for repai…

Yes, there's no suitable spectrum available to towers due to topography, etc.. I might have to build towers at both ends to run in a licensed range, eg: 11Ghz, and even there there…

you can negotiate this, it depends largely on what market you are in and what their costs are.

yeah, i had to recover my HN account, i forgot i made one

can confirm the shape of this assertion. Having a 10G even if rate-limited to something just over 1G gives the burst. When my son got a new laptop pre-school starting we could see …

yes, because i have fiber and starlink is going to be great for people who are 1 home per square mile or less in Montana etc.. I'm also in a position to offer much higher speeds wh…

too much time.. the payback is actually reasonable (under 4 years)

I purchased a tk recon 2

I ran short distances (like my private road, or driveway crossings/private property runs under trees) with it. It has a reach of around 150-200' and is not suitable for a large pro…

The pole owner controls what is attached.. There may be pole attachment agreements you can review, but depending on the distance and complexity of the route and how many poles may …

our local area had to hire someone to drive all the roads and look for the telltale signs of the utilities to get an accurate map. This was taking a cross-section of a survey that …

I had to build it 2 miles north to a fiber rich intersection. Even with it there it doesn't mean anyone will sell to you. I kept getting results a mile east or west of where I was …

Wireless is a great solution when there is spectrum available. If you have access to low band frequencies as the cellular companies do you can blast through trees, walls, etc. Even…

Or swapping the optics. Today they swapped from the 1G to 10G. I can use other strands or run them in the second conduit we installed.

Hah. My kid goes to school with CmdrTacos kid. His old house was not very accessible. Lightspeed - I forget who bought them maybe MEC. Try them

There are many parts that posed challenges. At the height of covid lockdowns - talking to contractor about if they will start at all was a big decision. Thankfully they were a fami…

Optic swap to the 10G was today. I won't disclose what the usage is but with everyone live there is tons of headroom. The redundant carrier and construction is underway as well.

150k or so 126+ was in 2020
