IN BRIEF: Guatemala planning spectrum auction

The Guatemalan government has revealed plans to auction mobile spectrum before the end of the year, local daily El Periódico reported.
To date, the country has only allocated 210MHz, which represents around 16.2% of what the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) recommended it should have assigned by the end of last year, which is 1300MHz.
Guatemala's head of the presidential commission on competitiveness and investment, Aciscio Valladares, said the decision to auction more spectrum was important for the development of the country.
