I have a suspicion that a certain large WISP aggregator is tired of UL and will be a big bidder on PALs in their territories.* Also from the standpoint of valuation, wireless companies tend to be valued based on their licensed spectrum holdings. Even warehoused spectrum seems to increase valuation, as long as it’s licensed. CBRS spectrum isn’t quite like 600 MHz or 2.5 GHz spectrum, but still probably viewed as an asset, unlike unlicensed.
