One reason we were holding out on responding was because we have a new earth station in Prudhoe Bay, Alaska that will communicate with the NGSO constellation once it is approved by the Commission. We thought that the site would be approved by now, but there have been a few minor complications that have prevented the site from being licenses. Nevertheless, the new site is listed as Site 1 in the attached chart. The license application is being coordinated at NTIA right now. Also, we are working on an STA for the site right now, hopefully to be filed early this afternoon, to enable DigitalGlobe to perform communications testing at the site in advance of the ultimate approval of the underlying SES license (SES-LIC- 20020607-00808) in a few weeks. For more information on the site, please give me a call (or talk to Scott Kotler). I hope the attached chart is responsive to your inquiry. I will call you in a little while to discuss in either event. Best regards, Keil ***************************************** Keil J. Ritterpusch, Esq. Pierson, Burnett & Ritterpusch, LLP 517 S.

Hi Keil, I have not heard back from you. Please provide me the requested information pertaining to station(s) located on the ground as soon as possible so that I can send DigitalGlobe application's FAS records to NTIA for coordination ASAP. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Sylvia -----Original Message----- From: Keil J.

I am forwarding this e-mail to DigitalGlobe's FCC expert, Howard Gannes, as well as to two (2) DigitalGlobe engineers who will assist in providing the information requested. We will get back to you as quickly as possible. Again, thanks for all of your help. Best regards, Keil ***************************************** Keil J. Ritterpusch, Esq.

NTIA got back to us and would like your application to be coded using instruction from NTIA's Manual. I am working on the FAS coding, The FAS coding includes two sections: one section collects data of satellites transmitting to the ground stations and the other collects data of ground stations receiving from the satellites. Your application indicates that the NGSO will transmit remote sensing data to the ground stations in the US and the world. Can you provide specific information for your ground stations? The information should be as the following for the frequencies 8185 MHz/375MG7D, 8380 MHz/2MG7D, and 2085.6875 MHz/128KG1D: 1. Address of site location. 2. coordinates (Latitude and Longitude) 3. Polarization 4. Minimum Angle of elevation 5. Call Sign 6. Antenna gain for the receive 7. beamwidth 8. The range of azimuth 9. The range of elevation 10. Height of antenna.
