EchoStar said it would sell a set of wireless spectrum licenses to SpaceX for about $2.6 billion in exchange for stock in the space startup, expanding on the $17 billion deal the companies struck in September, News.Az reports, citing Reuters.
The AWS-3 licenses cover airwaves across the U.S. that can be used to support mobile and satellite communications.
