If I were an Investor, I would be looking at Cband auction in late 2020 instead of CBRS. CBRS has too many variables that makes it a risky investment.

What's to stop you from buying the PAL and sitting on it until there's enough congestion in GAA that somebody wants it? it doesn't matter if somebody is already using it as GAA... once you turn on your stuff using the PAL, they get kicked out, if I understand correctly.

They paid for much more expensive equipment than a 3.5ghz AP. Maybe someone squats all the PAL's in a market until Select Spectrum finds a cell phone company who wants to pay a few mil for them. Or is there something in the rules to prevent that? On 1/23/2020 3:08 PM, Mark Radabaugh wrote: If you buy it but don’t operate in it then the spectrum stays as GAA which anyone can use. I don’t see it as being a good speculative investment play given that it returns to GAA unless you are actually using it. In a metro area it might make sense from an investment perspective but in a rural area where there are a very limited number of potential users trying to hold the spectrum to maximize value is pretty difficult. If the investor can’t come to an agreement with the operator the operator still gets the spectrum as GAA. The investor then has to go find an operator willing to utilize the spectrum and incur the buildout costs. The idea behind having spectrum revert to GAA is meant to discourage warehousing and speculation on spectrum. Hard to say at this point if it will work out that way, but it’s at least a start at breaking the current speculative warehousing the goes on in spectrum.
