Satellite companies suffer setback in C-band plan

While a lot of details have yet to be hammered out at the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), wireless carriers both big and small expressed optimism about the prospects for a public auction of C-band spectrum for 5G. It’s unknown, however, how cooperative satellite companies will be under the new plan.
Pai chooses public auction of C-band spectrum

That time-to-market advantage that the C-Band Alliance (CBA) claimed to have with its market-based proposal for getting C-band spectrum allocated for 5G faster? That appears to have flown out the window.
CBA’s revelation about Treasury contributions not likely to work - analysts

A letter from the C-Band Alliance (CBA) on Friday that said its auction plan, including significant contributions to the U.S. Treasury, appears to be a case of too little, too late, according to analysts at New Street Research.
