Generally speaking, outside of the lower 48, spectrum isn&#8217;t in that desperate of a need because there isn&#8217;t sufficient population density to worry about it. County-level maps <strong>do provide<\/strong> information for Alaska, Hawaii, and PR.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>In some cases, a license can be divided in terms of both frequency (subdividing a 10MHz chunk of spectrum into two 5MHz pieces for the entire area) or in terms of geography, or both. For example, AWS-1 block E (1740-1745, 2140-2145) Western Region is owned by AT&amp;T, however they let MetroPCS use this spectrum in Santa Barbara County, CA &#8211; this is geographical division. The licensed-area maps don&#8217;t support visualizing the geographic divisions within a license area, so it just looks like they both own that slice of spectrum. The County-level maps do a much better job at this.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Developed by\u00a0Anthony Fiti\u00a0(Twitter).
