CVUS did not have to pay anything for their license.

Here's the short version...

Because CVUS was the innovator of the LMDS technology, the FCC granted them the "Pioneer's Preference " award for the NY license. CVUS has retained the only LMDS operating license in the US. They have been operating the technology for a few years now.

If you go to the FCC web site, there is information about the "Pioneers Preference" award.

Sorry, no earlier auctions.

Hope this helps.
