Spectrum Summary - April 20, 2018 April 20, 2018 00:00

In this week's transaction report, there are 3 groupings of transactions.  First, RigNet (a commercial operator to oil platforms in the gulf) is acquiring AT&T's 700 C&D block licenses covering just the Gulf of Mexico.  The D block licenses in ULS didn't properly show licenses over the Gulf so RigNet/AT&T submitted the original FCC EAG regions map indicating their inclusion in the EAG703 and EAG705 licenses.  The second grouping is Sprint's continued roll up of 2.5GHz leases in areas that SpeedConnect was the previous lessee.  As Sprint has committed to overlaying 2.5GHz on all of its towers, these new leases provide new or expanded channels in ID, MI, TX, NE, SD, and MT.  Predominately, these licenses cover rural areas.  The third grouping is a pending termination of PCS licenses in American Samoa.  American Samoa Telecom Authority has already filed an extension request citing the difficulty to build in a market with limited flights and a challenge that followed a cyclone hitting the islands.  I consider it likely that the FCC will approve their extension request in which American Samoa Telecom Authority indicated that would meet the construction bench marks by July 2018.
