Special Temporary Authority


On May 22, 2008, XM Radio (XM) filed a request for special temporary authority to operate a 2 kW EIRP (average) terrestrial repeater at various
PGA Tour events throughout the U.S. from July 23 through October 12, 2008. The repeater would operate within the 2332.5-2345 MHz
frequency band allocated for the Satellite Digital Audio Radio Service (SDARS) and assigned to the exclusive use of XM. XM states that it
carries the PGA Tour Network channel as part of its programming and offers portable, hand-held satellite radios for sale or rental to spectators at
PGA Tour events. By tuning to the PGA Tour Network channel, spectators are able to keep track of the leader board and follow real-time action
around the course. XM states that the repeater is necessary to overcome heavy foliage and other obstructions on the golf course that block direct
reception of the satellite signal.
