As far as the SAS is concerned, it's all irrelevant. 

They were talking about coexistence groups where a group of operators could 
have overlapping assignments because the operators are using some mechanism to 
coexist in the channels assigned. I don't know if those made it to the end, nor 
what form they've taken.

Not at all. If I am running the same standard as someone else and the same 
split then I can synchronize with them and we aren’t going to interfere even if 
we’re relatively close. If on the other hand we are not running the same 
standards in the same split then we are going to interfere with each other even 
if we are very far away from each other.

How does the SASI sure there will be no interference? Since you can run so many 
different standards and settings?

Josh, 


You will have interference protection through the SAS so that someone just 
can't blindly fire up right on top of your channel right next to you. Every AP 
has to get a grant from SAS before it can transmit. Also if Demand says 15 
there is no way to tell if that is 15 individual bidders or if 4-5 bidders are 
trying to bid on 4x10mhz channels each. We will know when the auction is over 
more info but while the auction is taking place everything is a secret.

If you think CBRS will give you interference free protection I'd love to know 
you do because I don't feel that's going to be a game changer for hitting 
customers.

Correct - no way to tell who is bidding. The complete list of bidders is public 
knowledge: https://www.fcc.gov/document/auction-105-35-ghz-qualified-bidders 


Which counties those 271 bidders are bidding on is only known by the FCC

Note that the confidentiality and anti collusion rules apply for anyone who

violate the FCC rules. 


Everything discussed so far is from the public information the FCC is releasing 
or from the auction public notice. 


To read the results Josh posted: 

The price does not include discounts - 75% of the posted price if you qualified 
as being under 25M/year in revenue - so closer to 27k There is also a rural 
provider credit. 


It reads: 


In the initial round the price of one 10Mhz PAL was $21,000 not counting any 
discounts you may have been eligible for. There were 14 bids at that price, 
with only 7 lots available. 
In the second round the price of one PAL was $24,000 (less discounts). There 
were 15 bids at that price, with only 7 available. 


In the 5th round the price for one PAL went up to $33,000 (less discounts) with 
demand down to 10 PAL’s. The price went up for ALL 7 of the PAL’s. 


The price will keep going up until the demand is equal to 7. Once demand gets 
to 7 there is still a posted price increase - but unless someone adds 
additional demand the price will stay at the previous start of round price. 


The price/demand could sit at 7 for the next (insert number) of rounds and then 
start going back up if another bidder decides they are priced out of one county 
and want to move to another county. Or if they are just playing games. 


Once a county is at or above a demand for 7 PAL’s the price won’t go down. If 
you get a PAL in a round and later decide you don’t want it, you are stuck 
buying it unless someone else bids at the higher price. You can change your 
demand to 0, saying you don’t want it anymore, but unless someone else wants it 
you are stuck with it. Just like a normal auction - once you are the winning 
bidder, you own it unless someone outbids you. 



For bidders there are required activity levels that you have to meet. 
Essentially you have to bid 95% of your initial deposit on each round. If you 
don’t bid that what you are allowed to bid in the next round goes down. The 
rule is basically to keep bidders from sandbagging - if you haven’t been 
bidding and are just waiting to see what others are going to do you will run 
out of eligibility pretty quickly.

Im sooo sick of the BS games the FCC and 'BIG BOYZ' Are playing. 

So funny how they say "Sure anyone can get a pal" 

FCC should have shoved a big FU to all WISPs and just let us die. 

When I first saw the pricing on our county and surrounding countys for 
bid I knew there was no chance. 

Let the lawsuits FLY...
