RADB entry

Anyone,
Hopefully this is a simple question about RADB. I'm
supporting a small wireless ISP, they just recently added a second upstream
connection - Charter (AS 20115). The IP space was originally issued by the
other upstream Windstream (AS 7029). Looking at a few resources such as the
bgp.he.net to see who peers with who and looking glasses, it seems that not
all of AS 20115 peers are accepting our prefix. AT&T is an example -
AS7018. In one case, it's an upstream 2 levels up - Century Link accepts
from Charter, but Level 3 doesn't accept it from Century Link. Charter uses
RADB. The entry for the prefix looks like this:
route: 75.77.38.0/23
descr: Vybrent_Communications AS26296
origin: AS20115

75.77.38.0/23 is our prefix. Our AS is 26296. Does that entry look right?
I'm wondering if the 'origin' AS in the Charter entry is correct, since that
is Charter's AS, not ours. To avoid confusion, Nuvox is the ISP that
Windstream bought out, hence the name change. Vybrent and Community Connect
are the same company by the way as well. Other than RADB, are there any
other database registries that should be checked to make sure the info is
right?
Thanks,
Chuck
