FCC Chairman Kevin Martin is currently working to change the open access rules that were agreed upon for the auction of the 700 MHz spectrum scheduled for next year. The FCC felt pressure from Google to include open access rules with the auction of the spectrum. The executives from Verizon met with the FCC on September 17 and discussed their disagreement to include the open access rules in the auction. Verizon is interested in bidding on the spectrum but obviously want to maintain the integrity of their current business. AT&T and Frontline have also filed petitions with the FCC but nothing has been reported as to the the contents of those petitions.
