WAMEGO prefixes in area code 785

NANPA records 4 assigned NXX blocks to rate center WAMEGO in area code 785, 0.6% of the 726 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. 3 holders hold those blocks, the largest being WAMEGO TEL. CO., INC. (2), UNITED STATES CELLULAR - KS (1), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - KS (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2002-11-12 and the most recent 2005-04-04. 4 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
