AWS-3 Remnants Analysis: A Free Excel with the Available Licenses

Published on Feb 14, 2025

The FCC published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on February 6th, 2025, to auction remaining AWS-3 spectrum licenses from Auction 97.

The Airwave Research team has analyzed what licenses are still available. There are 200 licenses available, 197 of which are from the cohort of Dish licenses returned to the FCC. The other 3 were not purchased during the auction.

For each remnant license, we provide the following information: market, channel block, bandwidth, 2020 population, and MHz-Pop.

All components of this analysis came from data within the Airwave Research platform, which you can get access to today.
