Form 477 records count census blocks a provider reports it can serve, not subscribers or homes connected, a measure of reported reach.
Record scope. E-TEL filed 656 Form 477 records; 308 (46.9%) are flagged as offered to consumers, and only those are counted here. This provider's record count, its rank, and the peer figures below are therefore a smaller subset of what it filed than for a provider with no notice like this. How the count is scoped.
E-TEL state-reach reading
E-TEL sits in the lower third of Form 477 providers by record volume (< 329). Thin filing books still matter when they dominate one state or a niche technology pocket rather than a national residential footprint.
Kentucky alone accounts for 100.0% of E-TEL's filings (308 of 308), a concentrated book where one state can swing the national picture. Form 477 historically let providers mark a whole census block from a single reachable address; treat these counts as declared capability, not address-level availability, speed, or price.
