Ride Along With a Real Verizon Wireless Tester

Posted by samzenpus on from the everything-on-tv-is-real dept.

jonknee writes "So you're probably sick of the Can you hear me now? ads, but here's a new article about a real-life Verizon Wireless network tester. This guy logs over 3,000 miles a month in a station wagon decked out with over a quarter-million dollars worth of network gear (I dare say the most valuable station wagon ever?). An audio file is linked at the bottom of the article that has a few minute sample of the audio Verizon tests with. It's bizarre!"

    Again? That implies that there was a first time.

    In actuality, I left out one word. I do that from time to time, in spite of using the preview feature. (sigh). Anyway here is what I meant to post...

    I don't think that I would want anyone, who must listen to that audio all day, to be driving any manner of military vehicle.

    How's that? More comprehensible? :)
