Maybe we should look at a different metirc.

Debt per Covered POP? After all, you gain debt by building a network to cover more potential customers.

PCSA....11.3 M Covered 555 M/ 25M $46.90 per COVERED POP
LWIN.....25.3 M Covered 1,871 M/270M $63.28
UBIQUITEL 7.13 Covered 405 M/105M $42.07
DCEL.... 6.4 Million Covered 1,278 M/ 248M $160
Alamosa 11.5 Million covered 846 M / 129M $62.34
Unwired 6.8 Million covered 390 M / 58M $48.82

Again. LWIN/DCEL actually hold licensed spectrum, while the Sprint Affiliates use Sprints spectrum.

In addition LWIN debt on a per licensed POP basis is just over $29.

Which is below the average price paid for Spectrum-only on a licensed POP basis in Auction 35.
