I hope the H block auction is sometime in Oct/Nov this year and I do expect Dish to try to cause havoc in bidding for the large markets like LA, NYC, Chicago, Houston, etc to drive the price up for Sprint/Softbank. I think Sprint/Softbank needs to spend whatever it takes to get nationwide H block to bolster their overall PCS holdings and to get contiguous 10 MHz so that they can add another 5x5 LTE carrier for capacity.
I don't think Sprint needs to mess with the H block now , when they have TD-lte deployed and with trip band phones coming out shortly there is no need to get in a bidding war with Dish for only 5x5mhz.
