Hi Eric,

I see that you're in Santa Clara, so likely have many options for 
alternate carriers.

Street View shows pretty much unobstructed view of the sky which makes 
you a great candidate for Starlink. W6GJB and I have both signed up for 
it, and are six months into waiting. Neither of us has cell coverage. 
Comcast and satellite are my only options, Glen has flaky DSL from AT&T, 
and satellite. He's tried two, latency makes them slow and prone to 
dropouts. He has a good enough view of the sky that Starlink needs; mine 
is pretty limited by the tall redwoods, but I'm hoping.

73, Jim K9YC
