In part of a low-frequency airwaves auction, which includes spectrum set aside for non-dominant carriers, No.3 U.S. wireless player T-Mobile was the only major bidder in sight. But new competitors for the spectrum are surfacing, which could dash T-Mobile's chances of acquiring enough spectrum at a price it can afford.
