1. A base station system, comprising:
- an antenna;
a processor; and
a memory device storing instructions which, responsive to being executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations, the operations comprising;
receiving, from a wireless application gateway, wireless markup language messages, wherein the wireless mark-up language messages are received by the wireless application gateway from a communications server via a data network, wherein the wireless markup language messages comprise content formatted by the communications server, wherein the content is received by the communications server from a headend of a community antenna television network via a satellite link;
transmitting, via the antenna, the wireless mark-up language messages via a wireless data network to a mobile device; and
processing a dual-tone multi-frequency signal received via the wireless data network from the mobile device, the dual-tone multi-frequency signal input by a user of the mobile device, the input indicating declining receipt of the wireless mark-up language messages transmitted by the base station system.

Abstract
Methods and systems are disclosed for delivering electrical signals from a cable network to a telecommunications network. The electrical signals are received from a community antenna television network and communicated via the telecommunications network. The telecommunications network may then communicate those electrical signals to end-users and to customers. Because the electrical signals may include video, music, data, and other cable content, this cable content is communicated along the telecommunications network and, thus, distributed to an end user.

10. A method comprising:
-
receiving, by a system including a processor, content via a feed connected to a headend of a community antenna television network; formatting, by the system, the content into wireless markup language messages; sending, by the system, the wireless mark-up language messages via a data network to a wireless application gateway for wireless transmission from a base station; and receiving, by the system, a dual-tone multi-frequency signal transmitted from a mobile device via the data network, the dual-tone multi-frequency signal input by a user of the mobile device to decline receipt of the wireless mark-up language messages wirelessly transmitted via the data network from the base station. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, the operations comprising:
-
receiving content via a feed connected to a headend of a community antenna television network; formatting the content into wireless markup language messages; sending the wireless mark-up language messages via a data network to a wireless application gateway for wireless transmission from a base station to a mobile device; and ceasing the wireless transmission of the wireless mark-up language messages in response to a dual-tone multi-frequency signal generated at the mobile device, the dual-tone multi-frequency signal input by a user of the mobile device to decline receipt of the wireless markup language messages. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
