Recently I wrote about how there are too many locations in the National Broadband Map when you compare it with the recently-released Census count of housing units. In rural areas, there are 30.1 million housing and business units according the National Broadband Map, and 24.6 million housing units according to the Census. This isn’t just academic. Some (in fact many) of those extra locations are Unserved or Underserved.
"Unserved locations in dense Served areas" are unserved for a reason -- usually because serving them would be prohibitively expensive. Perfect fit for grant funding.
We've been mapping cell towers and rooftop antenna site for over 20 years as the FCC only maps registerd ASR sites and can appreciate the challenges of the broadband effort. (www.towermaps.com)
It is a daunting task to accurately map broadband coverage on national scale. Remember that the FCC has yet to offer an accurate map of cellphone 4G/5G coverage that is reliable or verifiable.

Howdy Mike, would it be possible to make that list of potentially suspicious locations available?
Just looking for location IDs, really. Thanks!
