Key figures
- USAspending cell: FCC × Connecticut = $200,572,072.66.
- 3,320 records, about $60,413.27 each as a mean.

$200,572,072.66 belongs to a pair, not a slogan
USAspending.gov reports $200,572,072.66 when the awarding agency is Federal Communications Commission and the place of performance is Connecticut. The matching action count is 3,320. Those are the only numeric facts in the packet.
A long award list still needs a caveat: 3,320 is not unique licensees. Broadband, spectrum, and communications folklore remains a search path, not a published breakdown.

Using $60,413.27 without overclaiming
About $60,413.27 is $200,572,072.66 ÷ 3,320. Quote it as a mean of two packet facts. Do not quote it as the size of a typical communications or broadband award in Connecticut.
No CFDA, NAICS, or instrument table is attached. Without those columns, carrier, tower, and universal-service folklore cannot be turned into a subtotal.
Geography grain: Connecticut statewide
The packet does not split Hartford, New Haven, and Stamford. A searcher can still type those names; the dollars stay on CT.
Place-of-performance codes for New York, Massachusetts, or Rhode Island are outside $200,572,072.66, including work that only uses a Hartford mailbox.
Why outlays are missing
Voice on the packet says obligations, not outlays. $200,572,072.66 is therefore a commitment total. Cash paid is unpublished here.
No fiscal year is published either. Do not attach FY labels to $200,572,072.66 or 3,320 from memory.
Neutral reading of a public-records join
This file does not call $200,572,072.66 wasteful or essential. It does not rank Connecticut. It does not invent licensees.
It also does not merge FEC donations into $200,572,072.66. Different datasets can share a place name without sharing a funding path.
Keep Federal Communications Commission and Connecticut on the same citation
Federal Communications Commission in Connecticut holds the live rows. Connecticut federal spending and Federal Communications Commission are the parent hubs. All spending ties is the index of other joins.
Until then, the reusable facts are $200,572,072.66, 3,320 awards, agency 027, Federal Communications Commission, Connecticut (CT), and the obligation unit. All spending ties is an index of joins, not a hidden total that already includes $200,572,072.66. Federal Communications Commission in Connecticut remains the place to verify the live rows. Place-of-performance Connecticut is statewide; it does not split Hartford, New Haven, and Stamford. Neighbor-coded activity in New York, Massachusetts, or Rhode Island stays out even if mail is handled in Hartford. Correlation is not causation. Broadband, spectrum, and communications folklore can be a legitimate research question on another page. Here it is labeled folklore because the packet has no NAICS, CFDA, or program column. Shoreline, insurance-city, and river-valley folklore is the same kind of reader path: useful for search, unused as math. Agency 027 on a different state's overlay is a sibling join, not a remainder that must add to a national FCC budget on this page. Connecticut's $200,572,072.66 cell stands alone. Do not subtract it from Federal Communications Commission and call the difference 'Connecticut versus everywhere else' without a published national total in this packet — there is none. Federal Communications Commission is the awarding-agency label stored on the Connecticut overlay; the numeric key is 027. Readers who only remember the short name FCC still need both the state tag and the agency tag before quoting $200,572,072.66. The 3,320 figure is not a count of licensees and is not a count of distinct FCC programs. Modifications can add rows without adding new vendors. That is another reason the mean of about $60,413.27 is not a typical communications or broadband award. Hartford is a reader landmark, not a published subtotal. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov. This file copies overlayTarget /states/ct/agencies/027/ and canonicalPath /ties/federal-communications-commission-in-connecticut/ from the packet. It does not add a fiscal year, a contractor, or an FEC dollar. If the live overlay later disagrees with $200,572,072.66 or 3,320, trust the table and treat this prose as dated to the extract. Repeat the pair before any reuse: Federal Communications Commission in Connecticut. Repeat the source: USAspending.gov. Repeat the unit: obligations, not outlays. The overlay path /states/ct/agencies/027/ and the canonical path /ties/federal-communications-commission-in-connecticut/ describe the same join. Internal links stay limited to the four packet hrefs. No other URL is added. No recipient, contractor, or donor name is invented to fill space. The facts remain the dollar total, the award count, the agency code, the agency name, the state name, and the state code.
