[Winstar sells $1.6 bln equivalent notes]

NEW YORK, March 27 (Reuters) - Winstar Communications Inc. on Friday privately sold about $1.6 billion of notes in a four-part deal in the Rule 144a market through Credit Suisse First Boston and Salomon Smith Barney, market sources said.

The size of the deal was reduced from an original $2.0 billion equivalent.

The four tranches listed below had originally been expected to total $300 million of eight-year senior notes, 250 million euros plus $1.0 billion of 10-year senior notes, and $450 million of 10-year senior discount notes.

The respective yields had been expected to be 11.875 to 12.125 percent for Winstar's eight-year notes, 12.25 to 12.50 percent for its 10-year notes, and 14.25 to 14.50 percent to maturity for its discount notes. Earlier, the expected yields had been 11.25, 11.75 and 13.75 percent, respectively.
