WASHINGTON, July 21, 2026 – The Federal Communications Commission’s plan to sell off 160 megahertz of upper C-band spectrum received even more input last week ahead of the agency’s vote.

The FCC will vote on finalizing those plans at its meeting tomorrow, July 22. The draft order has already generated many meetings and filings as parties push the agency to make changes.
