Harris/CAPROCK, http://www.harriscaprock.com, provides VSAT worldwide to =
shipping, offshore platforms and remote islands.

Additionally, Andros has quite a bit of undersea fiber going to it.  The =
USAF Eastern Test Range and the Naval base there was the forcing =
function.  The range contractor, http://computersciencesraytheon.com, =
could probably give you a heads up or if I can help I can call some =
friends there.
