The research takes time and will probably result in dissapointment of an organization wanting too much money to sublet it or a cell company already got it. If you find a school that hasn't already leased out the spectrum or isn't already in talks, it is possible they don't even know about it an

The band generally called "2.5" refers to an almost 200 MHz collection of spectrum divided up about 60% as non-profit "EBS" (educational broadband service) spectrum and 40% commercially auctioned "BRS" (broadband radio service) spectrum. These were formerly called ITFS (instructional fixed televisi

It looks as though BellSouth and Nextel have the 2.3 and Nextel has the 2.5. I thought they set aside some of those frequencies for schools? Can the schools still have the license along with the big guys? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of P

That's a very simple process Scottie, which is achieved using the FCC Web site. From the home page of www.fcc.gov, go to the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau area (choice on the right, scrolled down a tad), then go to License Search (also a choice on the right). Specifically, go here: http://wire

Scottie, If you think the base station is expensive, then you'd pass out knowing how much it'd cost you to get access to just 12 MHz of either set of spectrum even in a rural market. Put it this way, a big city would carry a price tag well into 8 digits. - Patrick -Original Message- From
