Wireless Bureau Asks Questions on AT&T Buy of Kaplan Licenses

The FCC Wireless Bureau asked AT&T and Kaplan Telephone a series of questions Wednesday on a proposed deal in which Kaplan would sell the larger carrier three spectrum licenses, all in Louisiana. The licenses covered are a cellular B-block and two lower 700 MHz C-block licenses. Petitions to deny are due Thursday. To complete its review of the deal “we require additional information, documents, and clarification of certain matters discussed in the applications and other information provided to the Commission,” said a letter from the Wireless Bureau.
