 PROFILE
There's nothing backwoods about Rural Cellular Corporation (RCC). The company delivers wireless communications services to more than 620,000 customers in 14 states in the Midwest, New England, the Pacific Northwest, and the South. The company provides mobile phone service and paging under several brand names, including CELLULAR 2000, CELLULARONE, KEYPAGE and UNICEL. RCC has been upgrading its analog networks to the digital TDMA (time division multiple access) system. The company owns 70% of Wireless Alliance, which has launched a digital PCS network in Minnesota, the Dakotas, and Wisconsin. RCC has grown by acquisition; it nearly doubled in size with the purchase of Triton Cellular Partners.
