Letters to the Editor: Cell Service Is Important to Business

I have seen some articles in your paper about the lack of high speed internet in Door County which can hurt growth and business expansion.

Now it appears we have a problem with cellular service. Maybe this is just a far north problem, we live in Gills Rock but up here we have reached a point where you hardly make a call on certain days without the call dropping. In our case we use Cellcom so maybe it’s a problem with just that company? Cellcom’s main office does not seem to want to admit there is a problem on their end however on the local end the word is Cellcom does not have enough capacity. I am not sure iff this means on their towers or what. In our case I can see the nearest tower from my house!

As mentioned above maybe this is just a Gills Rock problem and the information above is just from what I have gathered. As you have so excellently researched and commented on the internet issues you may want to research this issue as well as cell service is just as important as good internet to businesses.
