Spectrum Summary - May 25, 2018 May 25, 2018 00:00

In this week's transactions Verizon is acquiring 6 of Cleartalk's PCS and AWS1 licenses, primarily in Minnesota, New Mexico, Arkansas, and Idaho.   Sprint is leasing EBS spectrum in Idaho Falls, ID and Flagstaff, AZ.  These leases were previously in SpeedConnect's control.   The next 38 leases are between Commnet (ATNI) and AT&T.   Commnet is leasing typically a 5 or 10 MHz channel for roaming outside of AT&T's coverage in Colorado, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, and Arizona.  Some of these licenses appear to target resorts and tourist locations like Moab and the Staircases.  This is a significant increase in the areas that Commnet will have available for roaming coverage.  On a similar note, Inland Cellular and Sprint have initiated leases on Sprint's 800MHz SMR block (Sprint's low band LTE and CDMA) outside of Sprint's existing coverage in Washington, Idaho, and Oregon.  This continues Inland's strategy from last week to increase their rural spectrum in each of these markets.  This is the first we have seen Sprint lease their SMR spectrum.  These leases doesn't make a lot of sense when you consider the T-Mobile/Sprint merger, in which they will be increase their targeting these more rural markets but these transactions were probably well underway before the merger was announced..  The last group of transaction are leases of Sprint's BRS spectrum in Michigan and Iowa by SpeedConnect.
