Apparently there is a meeting scheduled today, April 25, at the FCC over
how the 700 MHz band is going to be split up for auction. It amazes me
how we can be kept in the dark about these meetings. If anyone can tell
me how to get included on announcements of such meetings I need to know
about
, but I'm not.
I agree with you on the base station license thing.

Apparently
FCC Digest comes out daily with about 30 to 50 items. Sign up at fcc.gov
This announcement today about the first of 2 auctions for 700 MHz is
going to describe how the auction will go.
Will it be large geographic chunks or smaller broadcast areas.
Starts at 10:30.

The meeting notice popped up last week.
I didn't know about the 700 MHz until this morning.
The 700 MHz has been on comments since 2003.

This is just my opinion, but I seriously doubt the FCC is just going
to give away 700MHz licenses, even on a per base station basis.
I never said they should give it to us. I said they should have base
station sized auctions. They can include an opening bid

The other issue is equipment... you are willing to spend $20k RIGHT NOW
for the license, but it would be at least a year before any equipment
was available, and then it would be $500 per CPE and $10k per base station.
A lot of the WISPs on this list spend an hour building a CPE to save $5.

This is just my opinion, but I seriously doubt the FCC is just going to
give away 700MHz licenses, even on a per base station basis. And the
WISP community is not going to spend even $5,000 per license if they
could. The cell companies will be bidding
