You are spot on in your comments too about where they need to get it but I feel a few of those spots are not going to happen now, but a couple will.<br /><br />Leap's spectrum must be sold as part of AT&T's purchase of them as stated by the FCC. Question is whether they will allow T-Mobile to buy it. Since it hasn't happened yet, I'm guessing that they are sitting on it waiting until the last moment or are trying to find other buyers.<br /><br />US Cellular is using their spectrum, so I don't see T-Mobile getting any spectrum from them. Perhaps they could do some good roaming agreements, but that is only a partial solution unless done very well.<br /><br />Cox sold their licenses to AB License Co and I have no clue what is going to happen with it now.<br /><br />As for Vulcan and McBride, they are in the process of being bought by T-Mobile and will be huge for them.<br /><br />I'm happy as I'm in Michigan and T-Mobile now own 700Mhz Block A for all of the lower peninsula as well as the eastern upper peninsula.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09015172923086008143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1573789373395047799.post-28863479754112122562014-08-11T14:18:30.181-07:002014-08-11T14:18:30.181-07:00The only transactions received at the FCC currentl...The only transactions received at the FCC currently relate to the I-700 spectrum in KY, IN, and IL.

AllNet's Spectrum Analysis Tool for August will include any transactions filed before 8/1/2014. As you can see on the map T-Mobile is missing quite a few large cities. Do you want me to contact you when I get the transaction information?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05859085221823705403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1573789373395047799.post-22909953213985939262014-07-31T14:26:03.364-07:002014-07-31T14:26:03.364-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05859085221823705403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1573789373395047799.post-83473816480055173932014-07-31T10:02:38.486-07:002014-07-31T10:02:38.486-07:00http://www.fiercewireless.com/story/t-mobiles-lege...http://www.fiercewireless.com/story/t-mobiles-legere-we-dont-need-make-deal-be-successful/2014-07-31<br /><br />According to this article on fierce wireless T-Mobile purchased some spectrum.

Sprint holds a block of SMR (800MHz) spectrum nationally but isn't focuses on adding towers in rural areas to use it. I think T-Mobile has the same reluctance. Both T-Mobile and Sprint rely heavily on AT&T and Verizon to provide their "National" coverage. I wouldn't be surprised if AT&T and Verizon made data roaming more expensive or unavailable once the current roaming contracts expire.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05859085221823705403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1573789373395047799.post-49846590639676400002014-01-04T10:23:23.210-08:002014-01-04T10:23:23.210-08:00What's the likelihood of T-Mobile acquiring th...What's the likelihood of T-Mobile acquiring the whole nationwide block 700 A licenses?
