The CB Radio channel 19 is still good for monitor truck drivers giving
However, I doubt that 99 percent number since there is still not any
cell phone coverage most places out west or most places in the
mountains, either.


Why would those peopl buy a cell phone when there isn't any cell phone
service there?


Even if 99 percent of the people did have cdell phones, they still
would not work in the mountains nor most places out west, whether flat
or mountainous, simply because there are not any cell phone towes o
companies providing any cell phone service out there.


The penetration of cell phones in the US is nowhere NEAR 99%.. I doubt
seriously it's over 50%. *At least online article puts it at 81% of the US
population owning cell phones, but I'm certain that does not take into
account that many people own more than one cell phone. Now then, here in the
land of the morning calm, I could give credence to nearly universal cell
phone ownership, since I see young kids (5-6 years old) walking around here
in my little (only about 20,000) burg with cell phones, and you won't see
one of those "kiddie" phones that only call three numbers, either..

The FCC and Each US States Department of Consumer Affairs
and Public Utilities Commissions should require that All
Cellphone Service Providers are required to offer at least
one Cellphone for America's Senior Citizens who need an
Easy-to-See and Simple-to-Use with Big Key Numbers and
a Big Digit {Numbers and Letters} Display. -end-of-rant-
