For Special Temporary Authority to Add
Sixteen Terrestrial Repeaters

To: Chief, International Bureau

                          PETITION TO DISMISS OR DENY OF
                         BELLSOUTH MOBILE DATA, INC. AND
                         BELLSOUTH WIRELESS CABLE, INC.

         BellSouth Mobile Data, Inc. ("BSMD") and BellSouth Wireless Cable, Inc.

("BSWC"), wholly—owned subsidiaries of BellSouth Corporation (collectively,

"BellSouth"), pursuant to Section 25.154 of the Commission‘s Rules, hereby request

dismissal or denial of the above—captioned request for modification of Special Temporary

Authority ("STA Request") filed by Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. ("Sirius") on June 23,

2006 proposing to add sixteen more high—power terrestrial repeaters to its satellite digital

audio radio service ("SDARS").!

         As demonstrated herein, the STA Request should be dismissed or denied for

several reasons. First, Sirius has failed to demonstrate the "extraordinary circumstances"

required for STA grant. Second, Sirius‘ STA Request erroneously implies that BSMD

did not respond to Sirius‘ notice that it intended to seek authority to add new terrestrial

repeaters. In fact, not only did BSMD respond before Sirius‘ arbitrary deadline, BSMD

clearly stated that Sirius was not authorized to represent that BSMD consented to the

Request"). The STA Request was accepted for filing in Public Notice, Report No. SAT—003481, rel. Aug.

additional repeaters and further noted that BSMD expected to object. Third, operation of

the proposed new repeaters Sirius seeks in the STA Request would result in harmful

interference to BellSouth‘s Wireless Communications Service ("WCS") operations. The

Commission thus must reject Sirius‘ STA Request.

                                             Background

         Together, BSMD and BSWC hold 41 WCS licenses across the country.

BellSouth pioneered the testing and commercial deployment of WCS services in

numerous markets and has significant WCS operations. In fact, BellSouth recently

announced the launch of broadband services on WCS spectrum in five new markets."

BellSouth believes that WCS spectrum holds great promise for deployment of wireless

broadband services and has made significant investment in constructing and operating

systems, notwithstanding the long—standing proceeding that leaves unresolved technical

rules for SDARS repeaters such as those proposed by Sirius."

        In its STA Request, Sirius seeks to add sixteen high—power repeaters to its

expanding terrestrial network. The markets Sirius proposes to serve are within the areas

licensed to BellSouth on its adjacent WCS spectrum.

                                               Discussion


     I.       SIRIUS HAS FAILED TO MEET THE STANDARD FOR SPECIAL
              TEMPORARY AUTHORITY.

          Section 25.120(b)(1) of the Commission‘s Rules permits the Commission to grant

an STA "only upon a finding that there are extraordinary circumstances requiring

temporary operations in the public interest and that delay in the institution of these

temporary operations would seriously prejudice the public interest.""* Notwithstanding

this strict standard, Sirius attempts to justify the addition of new terrestrial repeaters by

stating simply that:

          All of the proposed sites are located within Metropolitan Statistical Areas
          ("MSAs") where Sirius is already licensed to utilize complementary
          terrestrial repeaters to overcome the effects of satellite signal blockage and
          multipath interference. Based on operational experience, Sirius has
          determined that incorporation of the proposed sites is necessary to
          optimize quality of service within each MSA.*

These statements fall far short of demonstrating the existence of "extraordinary

circumstances" such that "delay . . . would seriously prejudice the public interest."

          First, Sirius fails to make any attempt to show that each proposed new repeater is

necessary to promote the public interest, instead relying on the fact that it previously

obtained repeater authority in the same markets. While it is perhaps true that Sirius

satisfied the standards of Section 25.120(b)(1) in the past, that has no bearing on whether

the Commission should now authorize new high—power repeaters without any evidence

that each proposed repeater is designed to overcome an obstruction. Sirius cannot




* See also Carlos M. Nalda, 21 FCC Red 1609 (2006) ("Special temporary operations are only warranted
when there is an extraordinary circumstance in the public interest in accordance with Section
25.120(b)(1)") (emphasis added).
° STA Request, Attachment A, at 1.


bootstrap its newest request to past Corhmission actions predicated on different facts; its

STA Request must stand or fall on its own.

          Second, Sirius claims that it is seeking only to "optimize" the quality of an

existing subscriber service. However, Sirius makes no effort to show that a failure to

"optimize" service "would seriously firejudice the public interest." Indeed, to apply this

rationale would make special temporary authority a routine matter — any party could

justify grant of an STA simply because it wants to do what every Commission licensee

wants to do — optimize service.

          At bottom, by relying solely on past Commission actions and failing to make any

specific claims that each proposed repeater is necessary to avoid prejudicing the public

interest, Sirius cannot demonstrate the "extraordinary circumstances" required by the

Commussion‘s rules. The STA Request be denied on this basis alone.

    IL.      SIRIUS‘ INACCURATE REPRESENTATIONS ARE GROUNDS FOR
             DISMISSAL OF THE STA REQUEST.

          The events preceding the filing Sirius‘ STA Request demonstrate that it is

predicated on an inaccurate representation of BellSouth‘s position. On June 15, 2006,

Patrick Donnelly, Executive Vice President and General Counsel of Sirius, sent letters via

e—mail to both James Harralson (on behalf of BSMD) and Robert Saunders (on behalf of

BSWC).° The e—mails indicated that Sirius planned to modify its existing STA to add

sixteen terrestrial repeaters and included technical specifications. The letters also stated

that Sirius "would appreciate a response from [BSMD or BSWC] by June 22, 2006. If

we do not receive a response by June 22, 2006, we will presume that [BSMD or BSWC]

had no objections to the proposed modifications."

° Copies of these letters are attached hereto as Exhibit 1. Mr. Harralson is the FCC contact for BSMD and
Mr. Saunders is the FCC contact for BSWC.


         On June 21, 2006, Mr. Harralson replied by e—mail to Mr. Donnelly‘s June 15

correspondence,"‘ stating that:

         I will forward a more formal response when I return to my office, but I
         send this email to ensure that the position of BellSouth Mobile Data, Inc.
         is not misrepresented.

         You are not authorized to represent that BellSouth Mobile Data, Inc. has
         no objection to the STA modifications described in your letter. While our
         investigation is continuing, we currently would expect to object.

         I hope to contact you Friday regarding your offer to provide further
         information. 4s a matter offuture practice, I also ask you to note that lack
         ofa response by a date you specify should never be construed as
         acquiescence ofBellSouth to a proposal.

(Emphases added.)* Notwithstanding this very clear statement, communicated to Sirius

before its arbitrarily—established deadline, Sirius claimed in Attachment A to its STA

Request that:

         Sirius contacted each entity holding a WCS license covering a market
         affected by its proposals . . . to notify them of its proposed modifications
         to its STA. Sirius requested that the WCS Licensees respond by June 22,
         2006. To date, Sirius has received responses from Nextel and NextWave.

This statement would lead anyone to believe — erroneously, as it were — that BSMD did

not respond. In fact, BSMD did respond, clearly indicating that it had problems with the

STA Request and objecting to Sirius‘ imposition of an arbitrary deadline.

        Despite the fact that BSMD responded in advance of Sirius‘ unilaterally—imposed

deadline, Sirius failed to tell the Commission in the STA Request that BellSouth would

not waive its rights to object to the STA Request. This omission is even more egregious



‘ A copy of Mr. Harralson‘s response is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.
* Although Mr. Harralson‘s reply was in response to Mr. Donnelly‘s e—mail to BSMD, it would be illogical
for Sirius to assume that BSWC would have a different view, particularly when Sirius was expressly
advised that BellSouth‘s failure to respond by a specified date "should never be construed as acquiescence
of BellSouth to a proposal." Exhibit 2.
° STA Request, Attachment A, pp.1—2.


in light of Mr. Harralson‘s clear statement that BSMD "would expect to object" to the

proposed addition of the high—power repeaters.

           Moreover, Mr. Donnelly‘s letter implies that BellSouth would waive its rights to

object to the STA Request if it failed to note objection by an arbitrary date established by

Sirius. Such tactics are no doubt intended to increase the prospect for approval of the

additional repeaters at the expense of the procedural rights of parties that could be

adversely affected by their operation. The Commission should not reward such conduct

by granting the modified STA.

    III.      OPERATION OF THE PROPOSED REPEATERS WOULD CAUSE
              HARMFUL INTERFERENCE TO WCS OPERATIONS.

           BellSouth believes that terrestrial repeaters operating below 2 kW peak EIRP will

not cause undue interference to its WCS operations, and has not opposed the use of such

repeaters either by Sirius or XM. However, because each of the proposed new repeaters

specifies operation at 2400 watts EIRP or above, BellSouth must object to the grant of an

STA. For the past five years, BellSouth has consistently opposed the deployment and

operation of repeaters operating at more than 2 kWPeak EIRP until such time as an

acceptable agreement can be worked out with Sirius and XM that may allow for the use

of repeaters that exceed 2 kW peak EIRP without impairing the performance of customer

equipment in the WCS bands.

           The record before the Commiuission, including detailed technical showings

submitted by BellSouth and others over the last five years, demonstrates that operation of

high—power repeaters creates large exclusion zones around WCS receivers and increases

the costs of CPE. For instance, in a letter from 2001, BellSouth cautioned that "[t]o

avoid blanketing interference to nearby WCS receivers, the EIRP of every SDARS


repeater should be limited to no more than 400 W/MHz."‘" A year later, BellSouth stated

that "omni—directional 40 kW repeaters blast their signals across a large geographic area

éreating an exclusion zone for WCS licensees whether or not its purpose is to function as

a gap—filler.""‘ More recently, BellSouth reiterated that the record in the pending rule

making proceeding "indicates that high—power 40 kW repeaters would cause interference

to far larger area than 2 kW repeaters first proposed."" And, as BellSouth and others

recently described to the Corfimission, adding more repeaters under STA, especially

those above 2 kW peak EIRP, serves only to compromise BellSouth‘s ability to invest in

a more aggressive and expansive roll—out of competitive commercial broadband services

in the WCS band." BellSouth reiterates its long—standing objection to the operation of

terrestrial repeaters operating at above 2 kW peak EIRP, including the sixteen repeaters

proposed in the STA Request.

                                       Conclusion

       The Commussion should deny Sirius‘ STA Request in light of Sirius‘ failure to

satisfy the Commission‘s standards, Sirius‘ inaccurate representations to the

Commuission, and the demonstrable interference and constraints operation of the high—

power repeaters would place on BellSouth‘s WCS operations.

                              Re:       Sirius Satellite Radio Inc.——Request to Modify Special
                                        Temporary Authority to Operate Satellite DARS Terrestrial
                                        Repeaters

                      Dear Mr. Saunders:

                      Sirius is planning to modify its existing special temporary authority ("STA") in
                      order to operate sixteen satellite digital audio radio service terrestrial repeaters
                      located in the following cities: Boca Raton, FL; Clearwater, FL; Miami, FL; St.
                      Petersburg, FL; Los Angeles, CA; Valencia, CA; New York, NY; Hill Side, NJ;
                      Lake View, NJ; Jersey City, NJ; Rutherford, NJ; Dallas, TX; Norwalk, CT. The
                      enclosed spreadsheet includes the proposed technical specifications for these
                      repeaters.

                      We would like to represent that Bell South Wireless Cable, Inc. has no objection to
                      Sirius‘ proposed modifications to its STA. Thus, we would appreciate a response
                      from Bell South Wireless Cable, Inc. by June 22, 2006. If we do not receive a
                      response by June 22, 2006, we will presume that Bell South Wireless Cable, Inc.
                      had no objections to the proposed modifications.

                      Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or need any additional
                      information.
                                                                       Sincerely,

From:                        Harralson, James
Sent:                        Wednesday, June 21, 2006 8:30 PM
To:                          ‘Donnelly, Patrick‘
Subject:                     RE: WCS Notifications


Dear Mr. Donnelly:

| will forward a more formal response when I return to my office, but I send this email to ensure that the position of
BellSouth Mobile Data, Inc. is not misrepresented.

You are not authorized to represent that BellSouth Mobile Data, inc. has no objection to the STA modifications described
in your letter. While our investigation is continuing, we currently would expect to object.

I hope to contact you Friday regarding your offer to provide further information. As a matter of future practice, I also ask
you to note that lack of a response by a date you specify should never be construed as acquiescence of BeliSouth to a
proposal.

Very truly yours,

James G. Harralson
