Steve, I took that post to mean $2.25 per population, not per channel population. Thus, WCII has about 180mil population coverage with it's spectrum and the value at the bid would be $405 mil.

This contrasts with the bid price that was set in 1995 (seems like a long time ago) at $2.00 per channel pop for the 38 ghz auction (that still hasn't happened).

Don't know enough now to speculate about how the calculation will take into account the difference in bandwidth between 1150 megahertz for LMDS and the multiple 100 mhz channels in 38 ghz.

Anyone else have any comments please respond....We could use some more info to help with these guesstimates.

Regards, Brian
