GETTYSBURG prefixes in area code 717
NANPA records 10 assigned NXX blocks to rate center GETTYSBURG in area code 717, 1.3% of the 784 blocks assigned in the code. A rate center is the billing geography a block is allocated to – NANPA truncates the name to ten characters, so read it as a NANPA label rather than a town. 6 holders hold those blocks, the largest being BRIGHTSPEED OF PENNSYLVANIA, LLC (4), D&E/OMNIPOINT WIREL JOINT VENT LP DBA PCS ONE (2), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - DC (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-02-16 and the most recent 2002-01-18. 7 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots. The same rate center name also appears in area codes 223, 605, 937 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
