Letter: Verizon Montara tower still not online

On December 7th you showed a picture of a new Verizon Wireless Tower being installed at the Montara Sanitary District.  However, Verizon customers have been unable to receive any reception through this tower.  After much discussion with Verizon I heard from them today that the tower is not working and they are having troubles.  They also told me that if I had signed up for their service on the basis of this tower they were willing to break my contract.  When this tower is going to be functional I do not know, but as of this date there is no signal.

Thanks for posting this. Your contact at Verizon obviously knew more than mine. If you (or anyone else) hears any updates on this, please post them. I am really looking forward to having cell phone coverage in that area. Now if only they could get Devil’s Slide covered…

I offered to let Verizon put an antenna on our house (we’re up high in a great location for it) at the same price they’re paying MSWD—but so far I haven’t heard anything. ;->
