It nonetheless retained the prohibition against stations licensed as private systems offering common carrier services. While the Commission set forth how private licensees above 2 MHz could elect common carrier status, it excluded the 2 GHz bands. On February 26, 1997, August 4, 1997, and September 11, 1998, respectively, Westinghouse Communications Services, Inc., AT&T Wireless, Inc. and Nextel Communications, Inc. applied to modify the status of private systems using 2 GHz band frequencies allocated exclusively to POFS licensees to common carrier or hybrid private/common carrier status, and sought rule waivers to permit the use of those frequencies for common carrier services.
