Anyone Know if USCC is bidding on the new Spectrum
Does anyone know if US cellular is bidding on the new auctions for the spectrum. I looked at the complete list and i dont find us cellular or TDS on the bidder list. Are we partnering with a group of regional carriers or is it our poilicy to but the spectrum from the winners?
Anyone got any info on this???

I would be really surprised if USCC was not bidding. However, carriers usually set up seperate companies to do their bidding at the auctions. The names of these other companies usually don't look familiar at all. The carriers don't want each other to know what they are bidding on.
...
Looks like USCC is bidding in the auctions via two different companies - Barat Wireless, L.P. and American Cellular Corporation.
...
What exactly are they bidding on?? and what would it mean if USCC won the "new spectrum"?
...
I think it's for new markets, both Altell and USCC are pretty close to having enough markets to become true nationwide. Pretty close meaning within like 10 or so states or something like that. My technical knowlege on this subject is almost nil. So don't hold me responsible for any of this, I don't know takes so much less to type.
...
Not sure exactly where USCC is biding, but they would bid on spectrum to enhance their coverage, capacity, products and service that they offer to their customers. New spectrum enables the company to expand in the ways that I just mentioned.
