DE QUEEN prefixes in area code 870

NANPA records 7 assigned NXX blocks to rate center DE QUEEN in area code 870, 0.9% of the 785 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. 4 holders hold those blocks, the largest being WINDSTREAM ARKANSAS, INC. (4), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - IL (1), LEVEL 3 COMMUNICATIONS, LLC - AR (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2004-05-24 and the most recent 2015-07-13. 5 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
