About McCaw Cellular
McCaw Cellular provides cellular mobile telephone, paging, conventional mobile phone, and answering services. McCaw Cellular rose with the rest of the cellular telephone industry in the early 1980s and grew rapidly through acquisitions during the decade, taking on enormous debts to do so. In an effort to build a nationwide mobile telephone service, the company assembled a network of cellular properties, which together were dubbed, Cellular One. By the end of 1987, McCaw Cellular had acquired licenses for 94 markets with a combined total of 37 million potential customers, making the enterprise the largest U.S. cellular phone operator. Founded in 1986, McCaw Cellular is based in Redmond, Washington. It was acquired by AT&T in 1994.
