Re: Dumb CLECs

who says they can't use wireless? and in many areas the Power company owns the poles not the telco.

And for the other poster a Muni is not a CLEC. And they could have built out they just didnt. and now in many states, the state regulates the ROW and not the local areas. and why not go to the state and ask to pop up your own poles or put your line underground?

More and more Power companies are Clecs. In our area our Power Company is a Clec and it isn't very cooperative with the other CLecs either. Oh and it's also owned by the city government to boot. Wireless can be another problem because it's rather difficult to deploy new tower sites because people are afraid their eyes will fall out if they have too look at another tower.

A lot of people around here like to bitch about the lack of choice but they also like to bitch about the infrastructure that is needed to give them choice.

You don't need a super large tower to offer wireless a small 200ft tower is usually fine. But in Ohio the major power company is a CLEC too they offer dial-up though in most of the area but using their CLEC brand- First Communications owned by First Energy. but AEP doesnt care to be a CLEC.

But also in Ohio we have a statewide ROW agreement. Which could be used to enter in the market. Especially if video was going to be offered.

Also in this area the cable company owns a great deal of their own poles. Power and Phone are on one side of the street and cable is on the other.

In Chattanooga, TN people protest towers even if they live miles away. This is from the same city that recently solved every problem they have. They now have their sights set on LED signs and their brightness.
