The west Virginia town , what
we called a hope taker country in tech field. The town in Pocahontas country
with a small population of 143 according to the last census report, Wireless
facilities are banned or illegal in the country. No cell phones, No WiFi, No
Bluetooth, No electronic facilities at all. The town even removed the
electronic doors from the stores as they caused too much interference.
The rules are too strict and to tough actually that someone
roves the streets listening for verboten wireless signals. This rules lies in
the town which is the home to the green bank's telescope, the largest steerable
radio telescope of the world. Scientists listen there radio energy sources that
how stars and galaxies are formed and the rough radio signal prevent the
discoveries which will be the big question about the how universe ticks.
In green bank's finding phone
service is the only thing harder than finding a another human. No service
provide by the town's government an only you receive sometime a AM broadcasting
channel hosted by the Allegheny Mountain Radio Network.
Only residents allowed first
to use the communication radios, although they are limited to the short
distance radios. If you are lost, than a pay phone service is for you, by which
you can surf the web there but you will have to grant a permission to the modem
dial up again.
But now there are new thing
are happen and the service is now slowly changing. Because if you are in
Green's bank and if you want to send a message to social sites or update a
status than you are in luck because AT&T brought cellular connectivity to
the Snowhouse Mountain Ski Resort, which lies in the centre of quite zone. The
task was not so easy as they want to get radio signals to extremely down level.
The director of AT&T said
that to do this he has to get the approval and to get the approval he installed
180 antennas around the resort and 3 miles of fiber optic cables so that there
will be no interference and signals don't need to travel too long. Which is
good because they want to reduce the power and our phone emits an average 500
milliwatts when we are using it, but you are skiing the slopes, than that goes
down automatically to a less than a milliwatt, said the director of AT&T.
