FCC Assignment Transactions posted on March 14, 2018
In this weeks transactions, T-Mobile (through their Iowa Wireless subsidiary) continues to roll up the independent spectrum owners in Iowa. AT&T is acquiring 700MHz C block spectrum in Kentucky and Virginia for their 700MHz (non-FirstNet) LTE. First Communications is leasing back most of the LMDS (28-31GHz) spectrum that they sold to AT&T. T-Mobile retains access to 850MHz of the the spectrum in Lima, Findley, Mansfield, Sandusky, and Ashtabula, OH. Smith Bagley leases lower 700MHz spectrum from AT&T in their Arizona and New Mexico markets. These leases are in rural areas outside of AT&T's current coverage. This rural roaming strategy is similar to ATNI"s (Commnet) strategy in many western states.
