Weekly Spectrum Transaction Summary - January 4, 2019 January 4, 2019 00:00

FCC Transactions from January 2, 2019
In this week's FCC transactions, T-Mobile filed to acquire 11 AWS and PCS licenses in Iowa to provide more contiguous spectrum across the state.  Much of the PCS spectrum was originally broken up on the local exchange carrier boundaries.  Iowa Wireless accumulated much of this spectrum before being acquired by T-Mobile, but these transactions pull in additional licenses and license areas.  Cherry Capital also filed to lease BPC Spectrum's 700MHz Guardband channel in one Michigan county.  The last two transactions have Sprint taking over leases from Spectrum Holdings for two Georgia licenses.
