legion125 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Looks like the FCC has shot down DISH's attempt for a network just as it did to LS2. I'm sure AT&T is at DISH's office right now with its checkbook in hand to help ease their pain. FCC denies Dish Network's waiver request for new LTE network http://www.theverge.com/2012/3/3/2840587/fcc-denies-dish-network-waiver-request-new-lte-network 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legion125 Posted March 14, 2012 Author Share Posted March 14, 2012 Hmm? Dish and Ergan must have something up their sleeve. DISH went through with the sale to buy the satellite assets although the FCC did not grant the waiver to operate or build its network. The FCC approved the transfer of the spectrum last week, but did not grant the company a waiver to immediately start using its new radio real estate to start broadcasting LTE signals. Still, it was a good enough sign for the satellite company, which completed the purchase of the two properties. http://www.engadget.com/2012/03/13/dish-buys-terrestar-and-dbsd-inches-towards-lte-future/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
