The 700 MHz auction ended two months ago, but you'd never know it.
Few things rarely are settled in official Washington. The Federal Communications Commission this week plans to launch a rulemaking to consider changes to the D Block. The national public-safety/commercial licensee was stranded in the 700 MHz auction after no company came close to bidding the minimum $1.3 billion for it. Up for review are the reserve price, penalties for failing to reach a network-sharing agreement with the public-safety broadband licensee and other rules that critics claim are unclear and skewed too much in public-safety's favor.
