The Hinsdale, New Hampshire, town planning board has given AT&T the go ahead to bring in a portable cell site atop Cannon Hill for the next 12 to 18 months while the company finds a good spot for the permanent site. AT&T currently has equipment on another tower in the area, but they will no longer use this structure so for the time being they will bring in the COW so there is no disruption in service. William J. Dodge, an attorney representing AT&T told the Reformer, “the need for a new cell tower stems from AT&T’s desire to convert from the existing roaming service — which allows customers to use cell phones to make calls and send and receive data while outside the coverage of the home network — to 3G service, and eventually to 4G service.”
