Key figures
- FCC (027) in Tennessee: $1,133,555,248.48 across 4,317 awards.
- Average obligation per award is about $262,579.40.
- The total is obligations, not outlays, and not nationwide FCC.

What the FCC-Tennessee join is
Awarding agency 027 and place-of-performance state TN meet here. $1,133,555,248.48 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Federal Communications Commission's nationwide budget, not Tennessee's entire federal inflow, and not cash already paid. Rural-broadband, universal-service, and statewide tower folklore may send a reader here. Those stories are not packet NAICS and not a census of Tennessee households online.
4,317 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — thousands of award actions behind a billion-dollar obligation total. Thousands of rows can mix small support payments with larger instruments. The join does not rank Tennessee against other states and does not name carriers inside the extract.

4,317 FCC actions under one Tennessee filter
Dividing $1,133,555,248.48 by 4,317 yields about $262,579.40 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical universal-service award. A second FCC slice on another state uses the same agency code and a different dollar total. Do not treat Tennessee's 027 total as a synonym for every FCC account.
Rural-broadband, universal-service, and statewide tower folklore is a coding conversation, not a packet field. Agency names and recipient rows live on the overlay table, not in this narrative's extra columns.
