Gentlemen :

     GE American Communications,    Inc.  ("GE Americom") hereby
applies for special temporary authorization, for the maximum 180—
day period, to continue to operate its Satcom SN2 satellite beyond
the September 1994 end of its current license.

      Satcom             SN2    initiated   operations       in      September               1984         and was
licensed to operate for a period of ten years.        Although this
license is about to expire, sufficient fuel remains on board Satcom
SN2 to continue spacecraft operations beyond September 1994.

     Special temporary                 authorization is necessary so that GE
Americom can continue                  to offer sufficient ongoing satellite
capacity for its customers. Such temporary authorization will also
contribute towards the Commission‘s policy goal of achieving the
most efficient utilization of orbit and spectrum resources, since
Satcom SN2 has remaining useful life and can continue to provide
valuable customer services at its present orbital location at 69°
wW.L.

     For these reasons, good cause exists to grant Satcom SN2
special temporary authorization to continue operating for an
additional one hundred and eighty days.

     A completed Form FCC 159 and a check for $705 accompanies this
request.  Will you please date—stamp the enclosed copy of this


                                 2

letter and return it to the undersigned.

                               Respectfully submitted,



                                     Philip V. Otero
