In accordance with Sprint’s requirements, the Company launched third generation (3G 1X) wireless service in August
2002.  3G 1X is the first of a four-stage migration path that will enable additional voice capacity and increased data
speeds for subscribers.  The network upgrades completed in 2002 were software changes, channel card upgrades, and
some new network elements required for packet data.  The Company’s base stations were outfitted with network card
enhancements, thereby allowing the Company to provide 3G 1X service without wholesale change-outs of base
stations.  3G 1X is backwards compatible with the existing 2G network, thereby allowing continued use of current
customer handsets.  The impact of 3G 1X-network enhancements on revenues became more pronounced in 2003, as
use of new 3G services and features generated approximately $1.0 million for the year, compared to $0.2 million in
2002.  The growth in 3G revenue is the result of more subscribers on 3G plans and the increase in popularity of camera
phones during 2003.
The shift in originating traffic is the result of implementing software capable of identifying actual interstate and
intrastate traffic specifically delivered to the wireline switch, where previously usage was allocated between interstate
and intrastate traffic types by the interexchange carriers.
The following table shows the access traffic minutes of use for the two years of 2003 and 2002.
Originating access revenue increased in 2003 due in part to a shift from interstate to intrastate traffic.  On similar traffic
volume in both years, the Company generated an additional $0.4 million due to a favorable rate differential of $0.03
per minute on the increase in the mix of intrastate traffic.  The Company’s increased access revenue was also a result of
the benefit gained through terminating more minutes through the switch, which increased 36.0 million minutes or
35.7% over 2002.  The rates for terminating traffic were similar in both years, although the percentage of terminating
traffic to total traffic increased from 58% in 2002 to 65% in 2003.
Within wireline revenues, the Telephone operation contributed $22.7 million, an increase of $0.3 million, or 1.2%.
Telephone access revenues were $11.6 million, an increase of $0.7 million or 6.7%.  During 2003, the Company
recorded a $1.2 million reduction to access revenue, of which $0.7 million was related to 2002, resolving disputes with
interexchange carriers on the rating of long distance calls transiting the Telephone switching network for termination
on wireless networks.
Wireless revenues from the Company’s paging operation were $0.2 million, a decrease of $0.1 million as the customer
base increasingly chose alternative wireless services.  Paging service subscribers declined by 32.3% in 2003 from
2,940 subscribers to 1,989 subscribers.  The paging operation continues to decline as more areas are covered by
wireless voice services, which have features that surpass those of paging technologies.  The Company anticipates that
