10. This assumes that PCS companies must
deploy approximately three cell sites for every cellular cell site
in order to achieve comparable coverage and that a hypothetical
single nationwide cellular company would have deployed 7,500 cell
sites to provide coverage.

12. This assumes that cellular companies
will roughly double the number of cell sites they had deployed as
of midyear 1994 in order to improve coverage and capacity, and that
Nextel will build out its 4,000 sites. The equivalent of four
30-MHz PCS systems would require a theoretical total of 90,000 cell
sites (4 × 22,500 = 90,000). In fact, the number of antennas
may be higher regardless of the number of service providers, simply
to ensure adequate coverage and service quality.

hired to study (antenna transmissions) came back and found our
cellular installation safe."
