$15 Billion Wireless Auction Set for Tomorrow

90MHz of spectrum goes on the auction block tomorrow as the FCC begins one of the largest spectrum auctions in its history. Up for grabs are licenses to the 1710-1755MHz and 2110-2155MHz bands—prime real estate for companies eager to jump into wireless services. When the auction is finally over (a process that could take weeks), the US government could be $15 billion richer, and wireless options across the country could get much more interesting.
