The applications listed below have been found, upon initial review, to be acceptable for filing. The Commission
reserves the right to return any of the applications if, upon further examination, it is determined the application is not in
conformance with the Commission's rules or its policies. Consideration of each satellite application in this Public

rules, unless otherwise noted. 47 C.F.R. § 25.154.

SAT-MOD-20070911-00123            E S2119                 XM Radio Inc.
Date Filed: 09/11/2007 14:17:20:01300
Modification


XM Radio Inc. (XM) requests authority to modify three of its licensed satellites - XM-1 (Call Sign 2118), XM-2 (Call Sign S2119), and XM-3
(Call Sign S2617) - by collocating the satellites at the nominal 85º W.L. orbital location in order to ensure optimal performance of XM’s Satellite
Digital Audio Radio Service (SDARS) system in the event of an outage. XM proposes to position these three satellites side-by-side within an
overall station-keeping box of 0.2 degrees. XM requests authority to 1) operate XM-1 as an in-orbit spare at the 85.150° W.L. orbital location
with an East-West station-keeping tolerance of ±.033°; 2) operate XM-2 as an in-orbit spare at the 85.217º W.L. orbital location with an
East-West station-keeping tolerance of ±.033°; 3) operate XM-3 at the 85.083° W.L. orbital location with an East-West stationkeeping tolerance
of ±.033° including continuous operation of its communications payload during the drift to that location; and 4) activate the communications
payload of XM-1 and XM-2 in the event of an XM-3 or XM-4 service outage.

Special Temporary Authority


On September 7, 2007, Sirius Satellite Radio (Sirius) filed a request for special temporary authority for a period of 180 days to operate operate
terrestrial repeaters at power levels at or below EIRP of 200 watts; and signal boosters with an EIRP of 0.0001 watts at trade shows to begin
November 7, 2007 thru February 18, 2008. Sirius states that the repeaters will operate within its licensed frequency band (2320.-2332.5 MHz)
pursuant to the technical parameters listed in the STA request.
