SpaceX says it has announced an agreement to acquire a nationwide portfolio of low-band spectrum licenses for Starlink Mobile in the United States. The company plans to combine the spectrum with its Gen2 satellite constellation to provide high-speed mobile broadband.

SpaceX describes the agreement as a step toward becoming a major U.S. mobile carrier; its broadband coverage statement is a company claim.
