I had received a card saying I would soon get a new remote-read electric meter on my house, and today turned out to be the day. Now I know for sure that there is a satellite going over Brandywine Hundred, north of Wilmington, Delaware. What a historic day for this humble house!
Here is a picture of Jason, of Delmarva Power installing the meter.
He said that meter readers will no longer try and fight my lilac bush and ivy to read the meter. Also, they won't have to fight their way through the prickly bushes which surround some other meters.
That good old satellite will fly over and do the job! Brandywine Hundred, I have seen the future, and it is here! Well, at least in one small way!

We have meters like that here. The meter readers only have to shoot thier gun in the general direction of the box and get the reading. No more getting out of the truck and crying about being afraid of my dogs
