HNS Licensee Sub, LLC Modification Application Call Sign WE2XEW November 2010 MODIFICATION APPLICATION TO ADD POINT OF COMMUNICATION By this application, HNS License Sub, LLC (“Hughes”), hereby requests a modification of its license for experimental Call Sign WE2XEW, File No. 0096-EX-ML-2009, to add the Galaxy 19 space station at 97.0° W.L. (Call Sign S2647) as an additional point of communication in the Ku-band fixed-satellite service frequencies. The addition of Galaxy 19 as a point of communication would provide a valuable new satellite platform that will enable Hughes to continue its domestic testing, demonstration and training operations of mobile terminals in the continental United States. Further, the addition of this point of communication will increase Hughes’ ability to find suitable satellite capacity that will ensure its ability to satisfy its obligation not to cause harmful interference through the terminals it is authorized to use. Having the flexibility to look to multiple satellites for the space segment component ensures the minimization of the potential for undesired interference resulting from the ongoing experimentation program. This modification application proposes no change whatsoever to the technical characteristics of the license for Call Sign WE2XEW as authorized in its September 16, 2009 modification grant. All technical operations with the Galaxy 19 satellite will be consistent with the terms of the existing authorization. Prior to commencement of operations using Galaxy 19, Hughes will coordinate its use of antennas authorized under Call Sign WE2XEW with Intelsat, LLC (the satellite’s operator) and other nearby co-frequency satellites.

In view of the benefits outlined above and the absence of a need for detailed technical review, Hughes respectfully requests the expeditious consideration and grant of this application.
