                                 Amendment No. 1


              The  undersigned  registrant  hereby  amends  the  following  item
included in its  Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31,
1996, as set forth in the pages attached hereto:

              Part I.     Financial Information

                           Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
                              Operations and Financial Condition

              The 1996 breakdown of net income and earnings  per  share  between
operations,  PCS  development  costs and gains  from the sales of  non-strategic
investments  in the second full  paragraph and table on page 2 is hereby amended
to read as follows:



Net income  available to common for the first  quarter of 1996 and 1995 included
significant gains from the sales of non-strategic  cellular  interests and other
investments and increased broadband PCS development costs. Excluding these gains
and PCS  development  costs,  along with the related  income  taxes and minority
interest,  net income available to common would have been $16.8 million, or $.28
per share, in the first quarter of 1996,  compared to $14.2 million, or $.24 per
share, in the first quarter of 1995.
