ViaSat, Inc. filing-volume reading
ViaSat, Inc. opens on filing volume: #1 of 2,138 of 2,138 Form 477 filers by deployment records (11,049,786 records).
Among 2,138 Form 477 providers on this site, ViaSat, Inc. sits in the upper third by record volume (≥ 2,064). Large books usually mean many census blocks marked served, not that every block has active subscribers.
ViaSat, Inc.'s filings are geographically dispersed; even the lead state (Texas) is only 8.3% of the book (914,231 records). 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.
