"We are proud to join the WCAI's Emerging Market Committee that is
dedicated to work on rural issues and provide updates on broadband
stimulus developments. This announcement follows the recently signed
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) that focuses emphasis on
rural broadband. The Rural Utilities Service (RUS) and the National
Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) are planning to
hold a number of rounds of applications for broadband funding under the
(ARRA) over the next year. Over the past 37 years, Berkeley Varitronics
Systems has provided advanced wireless test equipment that is designed
and manufactured in America which is attractive to the "Buy American"
status that is sought after on-going procurement." states Scott Schober,
