I do not for one instance believe NXLK and WNP colluded before
first auction. The seven sister VC's involved in WNP nearly did yet converged together well before the FCC filing date and even added video and telecom face guys to join their game theory wise professorial President. What we have now is a DEJA VU and something long
expected as these two entities could be seen rubbing shoulders as far back as Bear Stearns competitive telecom conference last fall.

Entities can not talk once FCC date passed so Winstar or anyone else can't manipulate. In some early other spectrum auction there were
charges of signal bidding but subsequent changes have ended this
practice, sadly for John Q. Public bid levels have still remained rather depressed.

I don't agee with the reply the usually very astute Bernard Levy gave
to my post but am a little too lazy now to look back at it exactly. But the remnants do include Puerto Rico and in less populous areas one
can have more wide reaching sectors as each angle has its own mulitple OC-3 capacity to distribute to x amount of end users. Spokes
connecting hubs do not have to be overlapping millimeter feeds either.
One can possibly find fiber to go miles between cities. For instance
Iowa I believe has a statewide fiber ring.
