Signal Cingular got 21 PCS licenses in Auction 58

Cingular under Edge Mobile won 21 PCS licenses for $184,397,000 or $.82 per POP MHz. Cingular will use these airwaves for extra calling capacity and highspeed data services like W-CDMA and HSDPA in the future.

Will Edge keep any vested interest in these licenses or just in the areas where they operate as Edge??

Default Re: Cingular got 21 PCS licenses in Auction 58

Since they are so dispersed throughout the country I would imagine Cingular will use them on their own.

Now, I imagine the C1, C2 and C3 is C block split into three 10Mhz blocks, but C4 and C5 means it is split into two 15Mhz blocks. Can someone clarify this?

it goes C = 30 MHz if no split
C1 and C2 each are 15 MHz if there is split
C3 and C4 and C5 are 10 MHz if there is 3 way split
