MTS RECEIVES 3G FREQUENCIES IN ARMENIA

The Public Services Regulatory Commission of the Republic of Armenia
has allocated domestic mobile operator K-Telecom with the requisite
frequencies to operate a 3G network in the country. According to
reports from Telecompaper, the allocation is valid for a ten-year
period. K-Telecom is an 80%-owned subsidiary of Russian mobile operator
Mobile TeleSystems (MTS). The Russian firm had been anxious to secure
3G bandwidth in Armenia to keep pace with ArmenTel, itself backed
by another Russian cellco Vimpelcom, which secured 3G frequencies in
the 1929MHz-1935MHz and 2110MHz-2125MHz range on 8 October.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
