Today we have Tommy and Dennis Burgess

This is an unscheduled cast because I have been trying to make this happen for a couple months now and our two busy schedules have finally aligned. (And there’s enough useful information to work with)

We are talking about the new FCC 477 and BDC (Broadband Deployment Collection) requirements for ISPs and how Tower Coverage can help with those issues.

https://www.towercoverage.com/

https://www.linktechs.net/index.html

This week we just have Tommy (I am ordering echo stuff for my room because I have listened to this cast 3x now and hate the sound of my own voice…)

Also note: I guess I have been running my mic backwards for the last couple weeks like a moron. ( you can see the silver dot which is the front of the mic facing towards the camera. I have been informed of this particularly foolish mistake and I have been told I sound great now…) I apologize for the horrible audio quality and hope to do better in the future.
