Audacy Corp. 340 S. Lemon Ave., Suite 8787 Walnut, CA 91789 http://audacy.space info@audacy.space April 2, 2018 Subject: Audacy Corporation, IBFS File No. SAT-LOA-20161115-00117 (Call Sign S2982) De​ar Ms. Dortch, Audacy Corporation (“Audacy”) herein responds to the Federal Communication Commission’s (“Commission’s”) request for clarification of the term “off-nominal” in the above-referenced application for a non-geostationary satellite system. Audacy clarifies that the term “off-nominal” refers to scenarios when a Medium Earth Orbit relay satellite’s ground-facing, high-gain antenna becomes unavailable for any reason, including in emergency and otherwise anomalous situations. In such cases a backup omni-directional antenna is employed to ensure uninterrupted space-to-ground communications until normal operations can be resumed. Should the Commission staff have further questions or require clarification, please let me know. Sincerely, /s/ James Spicer Chief Engineer +1.650.999.0331 | james.spicer@audacy.space 1
