This is an incomplete review. Where is this taking place ? Where is this tribe? There are hundreds of tribes in this country. What state ? if Canada what province ? Poatings like this drive me nuts. There are too many lose sight of the fact that they are reporting to the world not to their immediate locale.

I read the article but it does not say exactly where the tower is. Could be at Klamath or maybe Trinidad. (rancheria)

“What is more important, the location or the Technology? FYI this reservation straddles the counties of Humboldt and Del Norte in northwestern calif on the Klamath River...”

Even the tech end is not coversd because it doesn’t cite for compaisons sake the frequwency bandwidth being used, (sources fault)and after after sourcing this piece this comes from a Florida paper.

Correct. I went to school up that way (northern coastal California) with Yurok and Hoopa kids in Del Norte County.

As soon as you mentioned Gasquet I remembered you. Getting old and can't find the glasses I have up on my forehead. LOL Doing fine, was up there for my month as I do every year. Sold lots of my Indian art, more than paid for my trip and brought home fifty pounds of fresh salmon. Aloha

Nice country. I used to pass through there often. Haven’t been up that way in about a decade though I’m afraid.
