MobilTel, the only GSM provider in the country, was given additional frequencies today. This amendment to the license of MobilTel ensures the long expecting expansion of the network of the first GSM operator in Bulgaria. After January 1, 2002 two frequency bands in the 900-megahertz range will be used by the operator. The amendments to the MobilTel`s license are made according to the proposal of the State Telecommunications Commission (STC), thus ensuring guarantees for the equal separation of the radio-frequency spectrum between MobilTel and the second GSM-operator GloBul.
