                      Request for Special Temporary Authority
         To Operate a Lower Power Terrestrial Repeater at PGA Tour Events
                       (IBFS NO.SAT-STA-20050418-00086)


The portion of XM Radio Inc.’s (XM Radio) request for special temporary authority
(STA) seeking authority to operate a terrestrial repeater with a maximum power of 2 kW
EIRP at a Professional Golf Association (PGA) tour event, the Presidents Cup, to be held
on September 19-25, 2005, IS GRANTED, effective September 22, 2005.’ At the same
time, we DISMISS as moot the portion of the STA request seeking to operate a terrestrial
repeater at PGA tour events that have passed and were not part of the prior Partial PGA
XM STA Grant.* Accordingly, XM Radio is authorized to operate a terrestrial repeater
with a maximum power of 2 kW EIRP at the Presidents Cup, effective from September
22 until September 25, 2005, in accordance with the terms, conditions, and technical
specifications set forth in its application, this Attachment and the Federal
Communications Commission’s Rules, and subject to the following conditions:

        (a) Any actions taken as a result of this STA are solely at the applicants’ own
            risk. This STA shall not prejudice the outcome of the final rules adopted by
            the Commission in IB Docket No. 95-9 1;

        (b) Operation of all SDARS repeaters authorized pursuant to this STA is on a
            non-interference basis with respect to all permanently authorized
            radiocommunication facilities. XM Radio shall provide the information and
            follow the process set forth in paragraphs 14 and 17 in 16 FCC Rcd 16773
            (Int’l Bur. 2001) and 16 FCC Rcd 16781 (Int’l Bur. 2001), as modified by 16
            FCC Rcd 18481 (Int’l Bur. 2001) and 16 FCC Rcd 18484 (Int’l Bur. 2001);

        (c) SDARS repeaters are restricted to the simultaneous retransmission of the
            complete programming, and only that programming, transmitted by the
            satellite directly to SDARS subscriber’s receivers;
I
  XM Radio Inc., Request for Special Temporary Authority to Operate a Lower Power Terrestrial Repeater
at PGA Tour Events, IBFS No. SAT-STA-20050418-00086 (filed April 18,2005). On June 9,2005, the
Satellite Division granted, in part, XM Radio’s request for special temporary authority to operate a
terrestrial repeater with a maximum power of 2 kW EIRP at certain PGA tour events for 180 days. See XM
Radio Inc., Order, DA 05-1641, 20 FCC Rcd 10661 (Sat. Div. Int’l Bur. June 9,2005) (“Partial PGA XM
STA Grant”). The Satellite Division deferred those portions of the XM Radio’s STA request that were
opposed by Total RF Marketing Inc. (Total RF). Id. at n. 15. On September 2 1, 2005, Total RF filed a
letter withdrawing its opposition to the remaining portions of XM Radio’s STA request. See Letter from
Fred Fellmeth, General Counsel, Total RF Marketing Inc., to Marlene Dortch, FCC, dated September 2 1,
2005.

  Nothing in this authorization grants XM Radio authority to operate at events that occur more than 180
days from June 9,2005. XM Radio must seek additional special temporary authority for such events.

                     international agreements including those with Canada and Mexico;

                 (e) SDARS repeaters shall comply with Part 17 of the Commission's rules -

                       Commission's rules;

                 (g) SDARS repeater out-of-band emissions shall be limited to 75+log(EIRP) dB
                     less than the transmitter EIRP;

                 (h) This STA will expire on December 9,2005, or on the date on which
                     permanent rules governing repeater operations become effective, whichever
                     occurs first.3

                 (i) XM Radio Inc. is afforded 30 days from the date of release of this STA to
                     decline this authorization as conditioned. Failure to respond within that
                     period will constitute formal acceptance of the authorization as conditioned.

                 (i) This action is taken pursuant to Section 0.261 of the Commission's rules on
                     delegated authority, 47 C.F.R. 0 0.261, and is effective upon release. Petitions
                     for reconsideration under Section 1.106 or applications for review under

                     filed within 30 days of the date of the public notice indicating that this action
                     was taken.




           December 9, 2005, is 180-days after the released date of the Partial PGA XMSTA Grant.

       Re:     XM Radio Inc.
               Request for Special Temporary Authority to Operate a Lower Power
               Terrestrial Repeater at PGA Tour Events

Dear Ms. Dortch:

        XM Radio Inc. (“XM’), one of the two Satellite Digital Audio Radio Service (“SDARS”
or “satellite radio”) licensees in the United States, pursuant to Section 25.120(b)(2) of the
Commission’s rules,’ hereby requests Special Temporary Authority (“STA”) to operate one
lower power terrestrial repeater at the weekly PGA Tour event occumng at the locations and
during the dates listed in Exhibit A and pursuant to the technical parameters listed in Exhibit B.
This lower power repeater will transmit at a maximum Effective Isotropically Radiated Power
(“EIW”) of 2 kW, a power level which adjacent band licensees have stated does not present an
interference concern. Because this repeater will transmit at a maximum EIRP of 2 kW and will
be limited to coverage of a golf course for a limited duration, there will be no risk of harmful
interference to other communications services.

        Background. The Commission has recognized that terrestrial repeaters are critical to
satellite radio to overcome the effects of signal blockage and multipath interference.2 Consistent
with this policy, the International Bureau (“Bureau”) in September 2001 granted XM an STA to
operate terrestrial repeaters while the Commission concludes its rulemaking proceeding
regarding final technical rules.3 In granting this STAYthe Bureau noted that XM “needs to

employ terrestrial repeaters to provide adequate service.” See X M Radio STA Order 7 7 . Soon
after grant of this STA, XM began commercial service. Since that time, satellite radio in general
and XM in particular have proven to be unmitigated successes, confirming the Commission’s
vision in establishing the satellite radio service. As of April 1,2005, XM had approximately
3.77 million subscribers.

        In March 2005, XM announced that it will add a PGA Tour Network channel to its
channel line-up, which will air coverage of the weekly PGA Tour event along with daily
programs designed for golf enthusiasts. Moreover, at the weekly PGA Tour event, XM will offer
its portable, hand-held satellite radios for sale or rental to spectators. By tuning to the XM PGA
Tour Network channel, spectators will thus be able to keep track of the leader board and real-
time action around the course. The portable radios will also allow spectators to be aware of
impending severe weather.

        Request for STA. XM requests an STA to operate one terrestrial repeater at the weekly
PGA Tour event at the locations and during the dates listed in Exhibit A. XM requests this STA
for a period of 180 days after grant4 or until the date on which permanent rules become effective
for the operation of terrestrial repeaters, whichever occurs first. Grant of this STA will serve the
public interest by ensuring that spectators at the weekly PGA Tour event receive adequate
satellite radio service. While many areas on a golf course, such as fairways and greens, provide
an unobstructed view of XM’s satellites, there are many other areas on a golf course where the
view may be obstructed, particularly by trees and foliage. It is in these obstructed areas where
spectators at a golf tournament are located so as to avoid interfering with the golfers. By
operating one lower power repeater, XM will be able to mitigate the potential blockage of its
satellite signal by trees and foliage, thereby providing spectators with adequate satellite radio
service.

  XM requests authority to operate a lower power repeater only at those events listed in Exhibit
A that occur within 180 days after grant of this request. XM will file a new STA request prior to
the expiration of this request for authority to operate a lower power repeater at those PGA Tour
events that occur beyond 180 days after grant of this request.


Ms. Marlene H. Dortch

         Operation of one lower power repeater at each weekly PGA Tour event will not cause
harmful interference to adjacent-band Wireless Communications Service (“WCS”) 1’icensees or
any other communications service.’ First, the repeater will be deployed in a manner intended to
allow for coverage primarily of the golf course. Most of the WCS applications that have been
contemplated to date are for fixed services to homes and businesses. Although it is XM’s
understanding that there are no WCS facilities in operation today, even if there were, it is
extremely unlikely that WCS equipment would be used on a golf course. Second, the EIRP of
the repeater will never exceed 2 kW EIRF’. The adjacent-band WCS licensees are permitted to
operate base stations at a power level of 2 kW EIRP and therefore must be able to withstand
potential interference from such operations. Moreover, as the Bureau acknowledged in granting
XM’s original repeater STA request, the WCS licensees have confirmed that operation of
terrestrial repeaters at an EIRP of 2 kW or less is not an interference concern6

        Attached as Exhibit B is the following technical information for the lower power repeater
XM seeks to operate pursuant to this STA: (1) maximum EIRP; (2) maximum antenna height;
(3) possible antenna types; (4)range of antenna beamwidth; and (5) range of orientation. XM
has also attached as Exhibit C the specification sheets for each of the possible antenna types
listed. Because the terrain and foliage of each golf course will vary, XM is unable to specify
precisely the type of antenna, antenna beamwidth, or antenna orientation it will deploy at each
golf c o ~ r s e XM
                 . ~ accordingly requests the flexibility to operate one lower power repeater at the
events listed in Exhibit A within the range of technical parameters listed in Exhibit B.




 XM has notified Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. of this request, and it does not object.
 XM Radio STA Order 7 12 (“The comments from WCS licensees express concern about
blanketing interference from DARS repeaters that operate with an Equivalent Isotropically
Radiated Power (EIRP) above 2 kW.”).
 For this reason, to the extent necessary, XM requests a waiver of Section 25.120(a) of the
Commission’s rules which requires an STA request to include the “full particulars of the
proposed operation.” 47 C.F.R. 5 25.120(a). The good cause for this waiver is that requiring
XM to file for and receive an STA for each individual PGA Tour event will require both the
Commission and XM to expend significant resources with no concomitant benefit. This is
especially the case because the Bureau has acknowledged that the interference concerns of
adjacent-band WCS licensees are limited to repeaters operating with an EIRP greater than 2 kW.
XMSTA Order fi 12. Such a waiver is also consistent with precedent. In granting XM’s original
repeater STA, the Bureau held that XM was not required to provide the full particulars of
operation for the repeaters it proposed to operate with an EIRP of 2 kW or less because these
repeaters would not impact adjacent-band WCS licensees. Id. 7 9.

       XM certifies that its operation of the lower power repeater will comply with the same
conditions the Commission imposed on XM in granting its original STA. See XM Radio STA
             Specifically, XM Radio certifies the following:

               Any actions taken as a result of this STA are solely at XM Radio’s own risk. This
               STA will not prejudice the outcome of the final rules adopted by the Commission
               in GEN Docket 95-91;

               Operation of the lower power repeater authorized pursuant to this STA is on a
               non-interference basis with respect to all permanently authorized
               radiocommunication facilities;

               The lower power repeater is restricted to the simultaneous retransmission of the
               complete programming, and only that programming, transmitted by the satellite
               directly to SDARS receivers;

               Where applicable, coordination of the lower power repeater shall be completed
               with all affected Administrations prior to operation, in accordance with all
               applicable international agreements including those with Canada and Mexico;

               The lower power repeater will comply with Part 17 of the Commission’s rules
               regarding antenna structures;

               The lower power repeater will comply with Part 1 of the Commission’s rules,
               Subpart I - Procedures Implementing the National Environmental Policy Act of
               1969, including the guidelines for human exposure to radio frequency
               electromagnetic fields as defined in Sections 1.1307(b) and 1.1310 of the
               Commission’s rules;

               The out-of-band emissions of the lower power repeater will be limited to 75+log
               (EIRP) dB less than the transmitter EIRP.

       One of the conditions imposed in the original STA grant was the requirement that XM
pre-coordinate with WCS licensees any repeater affecting an operational WCS base station. See
XI4 Radio STA Order f 14. XM is not aware of any operational WCS base station in any of the
locations listed in Exhibit A.

        XM hereby certifies that no party to this application is subject to a denial of Federal
benefits pursuant to Section 5301 of the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988,21 U.S.C. 6 853(a).
