Now, I have gone over the license winners, and found that most of the winners already have coverage in these areas.. So these were mostly additional spectrum wins..

It's kind of like a game of Poker.. If the FCC appeals and FCC denies to hear the case.. Then the other auciton winners could lose it all... If they let Nextwave keep the F Blocks.. The operators would lose very little as far as overall coverage goes...
