PUBLIC NOTICE FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION 445 12th STREET S.W. WASHINGTON D.C. 20554 News media information 202-418-0500 Internet: http://www.fcc.gov (or ftp.fcc.gov) TTY (202) 418-2555 Report No. SAT-00659 Friday January 15, 2010 POLICY BRANCH INFORMATION Satellite Space Applications Accepted for Filing 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 Notice may depend on the Commission's action on another satellite application earlier in the queue. Petitions, oppositions and other pleadings filed in response to this notice should conform to Section 25.154 of the Commission's rules, unless otherwise noted. 47 C.F.R. § 25.154. SAT-ASG-20091215-00145 E S2367 Liberty Satellite Radio, Inc. Date Filed: 12/15/2009 15:00:42:15600 Assignment Current Licensee: AfriSpace, Inc. Debtor-in-Possession FROM: AfriSpace, Inc. Debtor-in-Possession TO: Liberty Satellite Radio, Inc. SAT-LOI-20091110-00119 E S2753 Hughes Network Systems, LLC Date Filed: 11/10/2009 18:31:16:31000 Letter of Intent On November 10, 2009, Hughes Network Systems, LLC, filed a Letter of Intent (LOI) seeking access to the market in the United States using its SPACEWAY 4 GSO Ka-band space station licensed by the Administration of the United Kingdom at the 107.1° W.L. orbital location. In its market access request, Hughes seeks to operate the SPACEWAY 4 space station in the following frequency bands: 28.35-29.1 GHz and 29.25-30.0 GHz (Earth-to-space); 18.3-19.3 GHz and 19.7-20.2 GHz (space-to-Earth) with operations in the 18.8-19.3 GHz bands on a non-harmful interference basis. Hughes requests waivers, to the extent necessary, of Section 25.114(c)(4)(iii) and Section 2.106 Footnote, NG165 to the United States Table of Frequency Allocations. This application reflects changes to the design of the SPACEWAY 4 space station for which a market access request was previously submitted by Hughes in 2008. See SAT-LOI-20080603-00118; SAT-AMD-20090608-00065 (Call Sign S2753). The November 10, 2009 LOI seeks to use the same orbital location and frequencies that were requested in 2008, with the exception that Hughes no longer seeks to use the 28.1-28.35 GHz frequency band (Earth-to-space). Pursuant to 25.137(e) of the Commission's rules, the November 10, 2009 application will be treated as an amendment to the previously filed market access request for the SPACEWAY 4 space station for purposes of processing under the Commission's first-come, first-served licensing queue. As a result, we will retain the same call sign (Call Sign S2753) for the SPACEWAY 4 space station. To avoid confusion regarding the technical characteristics of the market access request for the SPACEWAY 4 space station, however, we will close the prior files (SAT-LOI-20080603-00118; SAT-AMD-20090608-00065 ) in our licensing database.
