Interesting report buried in the from ISOC-SF on mobile broadband (or lack thereof) in CA farmlands.. guess the main point was to discredit the CA PUC’s testing of mobile broadband which tends to just test along major roads.. not in the farms themselves.. and thus shame the PUC into changing their testing methodology and ultimately pressure the mobile operators into more tower density in agricultural areas.. thanks for including! ..and good luck getting the PUC’s attention next with this report. (at least that was my summary of it..) -ron

Many of the measurements in our project also took place on public roads (155 sites) as getting access to private farmlands is difficult. But we were fortunately able to take measurements on five different ranches (at seven separate sites). > ..and good luck getting the PUC’s attention next with this report. - Thanks: we have the support of CA State Broadband Coordinator Chief Strategy Officer for Agriculture Technology and Innovation, Robert Tse, who has already had discussions on the project in D.C as well as with other states looking to replicate the project in their own regions. We're also working on a video of the project which we'll release soon and will be highlighting the results of the project at the Silicon Valley AgTech conference in May.

Hello Ron: Thank you for noticing and reading this update. I believe that the newsletter needs some refining, that's probably what led you noting that our update on this project as hidden, I think :-). Susannah, put it perfectly below. I have been Project Lead on this for the full year and engineered the BNET grant process while the Chapter Chair in 2016 so we have been sending frequent updates since then to the NARALO community. We just completed the project at the end of January 2018. For more information on the project (incase you missed past updates) and upcoming Silicon Valley Agtech Conference (https://www.svagtech.org/wp/) where we will debut the project report (To be presented by CSU Chico/GIC) please visit our website https://www.sfbayisoc.org/projects-overview/current-and-future-projects/rural-broadband-project/ Feel free to share this information.
