COWs, COLTs, and WOWs

Natural disaster responders, large event planners, and rural kids trying to do their homework all have something in common: they need a little extra help to get connected. COWs, COLTs, and WOWs can do just that. Mark Houtz joins Keith Parsons to explain how and why COW operators do what they do. First, he explains the acronyms: Cellular on Wheels/Wings (COW), Cellular on Light Transit (COLT), and Wireless on Wheels/Wings (WOW). Then Mark considers making a COW, including whether to choose private cellular (CBRS), Wi-Fi, or point-to-point links. By the end of the episode, you’ll be tempted to make your own car into a COW.
