Securities and Exchange Commission
450 Fifth Street, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20549

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Arthur Andersen LLP ("Andersen") has represented to CT Communications, Inc. that
the audits they performed on the 10 RSA Cellular General Partnerships invested
in by Palmetto MobileNet, L.P. were subject to Andersen's quality control system
for the U.S. accounting and auditing practice to provide reasonable assurance
that the engagements were conducted in compliance with professional standards
and that there was appropriate continuity of Andersen personnel working on the
audits and availability of national office consultation. Availability of
personnel at foreign affiliates of Andersen was not relevant to the audit and,
thus, CT Communications received no assurance from Andersen regarding such
availability.
