The FCC is proposing some rule changes that could delay DISH's planned network. This could affect the granting of the waivers that DISH is currently pushing for. I wonder if AT&T is behind this?

 

The Death Star was arguing that the FCC should hold DISH to the same standards as LightSquared in making DISH build its network before it was ready. I think this was a ploy to force DISH in a corner and possibly spurring a spectrum sale to AT&T. Now it appears that all the sudden the FCC wants to delay things which could also play into AT&T's hands. Egan says they may not go forward if FCC interference increases it's risk profile.
