       Re:     Application of AfriSpace, Inc for Authority to Launch and Operate a Satellite
               Sound Broadcasting Transmission System; File No. CSS—90—017; IBFS File

Dear Ms. Salas:

       It has come to our attention that a filing was submitted to the Federal Communications
Commission (the "Commission") by the General Aviation Manufacturers Association
("GAMA") on May 3, 1999. Section 25.154(a)(5) of the Commission‘s Rules requires that
oppositions to pleadings must "[cJontain a certificate of service showing that it has been mailed
to the applicant no later than the date the pleading is filed with the Commission." Contrary
to Section 25.154 of the Commission‘s Rules, this filing did not contain the required certificate
of service and was not served on AfriSpace‘s couns=l or on AfriSpace itself. We therefore
request that the Commission reject this filing.

       If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me at (202) 736—1809.

                                                     Sincerely,




                                                     Counsel to
                                                     WorldSpace, Inc. and
                                                      AfriSpace, Inc.
