November / December / January / February Newsletter

Winter is, and has been here!

This is a busy time for enriching ourselves in understanding the technology that is the Internet. Time to skill up and get ready for the inevitable thaw and the return to outside plant operations. Strong storms have battered the west coast and others as well. There is rebuilding to be done, and as always we like to build it better.

It has been a busy winter here at CellStream HQ. We have a lot to catch up on, so check out the details below.

A quick Thank You to the Wisconsin State Telecom Association, the Minnesota Telecom Association, North Dakota's Telecom Training and Safety, and the Oklahoma Telecom Association for your invitations to have me speak on various topics at your 2024 conferences. Thank You.
