Allocating publicly owned assets: the case of personal communications services

Ian Gale

Economic Commentary, 1995, issue Jan

Abstract: An examination of the rationale for the recent use of government auctions to allocate radio spectrum. Auctions are a more equitable allocation method than either comparative hearings or lotteries, will help put a dent in the federal debt, and will be fair to small firms that face capital constraints.
