Hi Carter, here's the latest available data on toll service revenues--market share. Got it from here: fcc.gov Which is a link from here: fcc.gov The filename I pulled this from is 97PSOCC.PDF. It's a large file (not so bad if you have a cable modem) but contains lots of comparison information. Sorry the format doesn't paste well here. The WCOM entry is empty in the 1984-88 row, so it's pretty hard to read this. Downloading the file is the best bet.
