You can purchase C band spectrum, but it will be sold in PEA sized chunks.   
Opening prices have been announced, auction starts in December I believe.   

Not sure of the short form date but if you are going to bid in it you may want 
to form a group.   Unfortunately some of the people you probably want to talk 
with might be in the CBRS auction which can make things difficult with the 
anti-collusion rules.
