Back in October, AT&T purchased a significant amount of 700 MHz spectrum from Aloha Partners. When completed, the transaction would make AT&T the company holding the most spectrum excluding acquisitions made during the FCC auction (which began this week). At the time of the purchase announcement, AT&T said that they hoped to have all necessary government approvals to close the deal within 6-9 months. Less than four months later, FCC Chairman Kevin Martin is pushing to get that deal approved by the rest of the FCC staff. He needs two votes out of four to make the deal happen but no decision has yet been made.
