The legal obstacles that are preventing the Superintendencia de Telecomunicaciones of Guatemala from tendering the AWS frequency may not be solved in the short term.
The Telecommunications Authority has announced that by June it plans to issue tenders for a part of the radio spectrum, specifically for private communication frequencies and UHF links. But the most anticipated auction for the three local operators, the AWS frequency, still hasn't made any progress since 2015 due to the 16 appeals processes that have not yet been resolved.
Although a date for the changeover has not yet been set, the Telecommunications Authority has presented a preliminary project to define the transition to digital TV.

The number of frequencies to be tendered will be 68 in the AM band and 69 in the FM band, and the convocation will take place between November 21 and 25.
