Re: Application for experimental authority pursuant to Section 5 of the Commission‘s
    Rules. (Salt Creek, California)                                                  |


Dear Mr. Caton:


AT&T Corp. ("AT&T®") in accordance with CFR 47, Sections 5.51, 5.52, 5.54, and 5.55 of the
Commission‘s Rules requests experimental authority to transmit data, voice, fax, and video
transmission using the INTELSAT Satellites in the Pacific Ocean Region (POR) to and from
seagoing vessels using C—band earth stations.

The Public Interest will be served by fostering the development of new maritime services using
C—band earth station technology aboard ships.

The experiment will entail the use of a land based earth station at Salt Creek, CA (Call Sign KA—
373) in conjunction with leased space segments in the POR provided by COMSAT World
Systems initially using two vessels, one a cruise ship and the other a naval vessel.

A petition for rule—making to amend CFR 47, Part 80 of the Commission‘s Rules to permit the
use of C—band frequencies by shipbound earth stations is pending before the Commission.

AT&T intends to charge for the use of the INTELSAT space segment in connection with this
proposed experimental authorization and will file a tariff with the Commission.
