    Dear Ms. Dortch:

          Further t myletter of January 12, 2005, The DIRECTV Group,Inc.
    (DIRECTV") wishes to clarify the operation ofits beams covering Hawail on the
    DIRECTV 10 and DIRECTV 11 satelltes. Each ofthese satellites has a dedicated spot
    beam covering Hawail. These spot beams are used for both national and local
    programming, and as indicated in Table 5.2 of each application, the peak EIRP of these
    beams is 59.5 dBW. As also indicated in Figure 5—1 of those applications, national
    programming is provided by 14 Ka—band transponders on each satellite —and the Hawaii
    spot beams are fed with the same programming from the same uplink transmissions as the
    beams serving CONUS and Alaska.. In addition, two more Ka—band transponders on
    DIRECTYV 11 can be used in the same beam for the retransmission of local broadcast
    signals t subscribers in Hawail.The complete beam contouss are depieted on the
    attachment to this lette.


                                                    Sincerely yours,
                                                TithansM. Zhlsed.s,
                                                    WilliemM. Wiltshire
