Federal Communications Commission Auctions
FCC auctions are conducted electronically and are accessible over the Internet. Thus, qualified bidders can place bids from the comfort of their home or office. Further, anyone with access to a computer with a web browser can follow the progress of an auction and view the results of each round.
Depending on the auction design, number of bidders, and the number of licenses being offered, an auction might run anywhere from one day to several weeks. Auctions are typically conducted Monday through Friday during normal business hours (Eastern Time).
The first day of an auction generally opens with long bidding periods, typically two bidding rounds lasting one or two hours each, followed by round results. As the auction continues, the Commission generally increases the number of rounds per day and decreases the duration of the rounds. Bidders drop out of the auction when licenses in which they are interested exceed the value they are willing to pay. The auction typically continues until all bidding activity stops.
