On WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1995, in Washington, D.C. (location to 
be announced) a coalition of public policy organizations, consumer 
groups and individuals will hold a press conference to formally 
launch the campaign to roll back the giveaway of *new* broadcast 
spectrum to incumbent broadcasters to provide digital television 
services and non-broadcasting services--paging, pay-per-view, home 
shopping--under the guise of *spectrum flexibility*.  The estimated 
value of the proposed giveaway ranges from $11 billion to $70 billion.  
The future valuation of the spectrum may be as high as $500 billion 
according to a report prepared by the Federal Communications Commission.
