How can they be getting phone calls?
Ph lines back up, cell ph towers working again?
thanx
One of the first priorities of the telco emergency crews is to install emergency generators with large fuel bladders to repower the cell towers. They also bring temp towers and such with them.
Cell towers *can* talk peer to peer if they have problems - all they need is one tower in line of sight of the others with a working landline connection - and I think that's the BellSouth building.
