Premier Satellite state-reach reading
Premier Satellite opens on geographic reach: #187 of 2,138 filers by states with filings (2 states), with 84 records behind that footprint.
Premier Satellite 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.
Tennessee alone accounts for 97.6% of Premier Satellite's filings (82 of 84), 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.
