PanAmSat Licensee Corporation has filed an application for authority to launch and operate a replacement satellite, PAS-24.
PanAmSat Licensee intends to be operate the PAS-24 satellite as a hybrid C/Ku-band replacement satellite for its PAS-6 satellite
located at 68.5 degrees E.L. The PAS-24 will consist of 24 Ku-band transponders, each with a bandwidth of 36 MHz, and 24 C-band
transponders, with bandwidths of 54 MHz and 27 MHz. Services are proposed on a non-common carrier basis.



SAT-LOA-19991207-00117              S2385          PANAMSAT CORPORATION
Launch and Operating Authority


PanAmSat Corporation has filed an application to launch and operate a hybrid C/Ku-band satellite, Galaxy V-R satellite, at 125 degrees
W.L. PanAmSat proposes to operate the C-band capacity as a replacement for its C-band Galaxy V satellite, which is currently
operating at 125 degrees W.L. PanAmSat asks that the Commission waive its rules to permit it to include Ku-band capacity on this
satellite without initiating a new processing round. The proposed C-band payload would consist of 24 transponders with 36 MHz
bandwidths. The Ku-band payload would consist of 24 transponders. Both payloads contain a switch which could reverse the
polarizations in accordance with Commission rules. Operations are proposed on a non-common carrier basis.



SAT-LOA-19991207-00118              S2386          PANAMSAT CORPORATION
Launch and Operating Authority


PanAmSat Corporation has filed an application to launch and operate a hybrid C/Ku-band satellite, Galaxy IX-R satellite, at 127
degrees W.L. PanAmSat proposes to operate the C-band capacity as a replacement for its C-band Galaxy IX satellite, which is
currently operating at 127 degrees W.L. PanAmSat asks that the Commission waive its rules to permit it to include Ku-band capacity
on this satellite without initiating a new processing round. The proposed C-band payload would consist of 24 transponders with 36
MHz bandwidths. The Ku-band payload would consist of 24 transponders. Both payloads contain a switch which could reverse the
polarizations in accordance with Commission rules. Operations are proposed on a non-common carrier basis.

PanAmSat Corporation has filed an application to launch and operate the Galaxy I(H) satellite as replacement satellite for its Galaxy
I-R satellite. PanAmSat proposes to operate the replacement satellite at 133 degrees W.L., where Galaxy I-R currently operates.
PanAmSat asks that the Commission waive its expansion satellite rule so that PanAmSat can replace the Galaxy I-R satellite, a C-band
satellite, with a space station that includes both C-band capacity and Ku-band capacity. The proposed C-band component would consist
of 24 transponders with 36 MHz bandwidths. The Ku-band component would consist of 24 transponders. Both payloads contain a
switch which could reverse the polarizations in accordance with Commission rules. Operations are proposed on a non-common carrier
basis.
