       Re:     XM Radio Inc.
               Request for Special Temporary Authority to Operate a Low 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, 47 C.F.R. § 25.120, hereby requests Special Temporary Authority ("STA")
to operate one low power terrestrial repeater at the weekly Professional Golfers‘ Association
("PGA") Tour event occurring at the locations and during the dates listed in Exhibit A and
pursuant to the technical parameters listed in Exhibit B hereto.‘ The Commission‘s International
Bureau (the "Bureau") has previously granted XM five similar STA‘s for coverage of PGA
events, the latest of which it granted on February 7, 2007, and which covers events occurring
through July 1, 2007." The low power repeater authorized under this STA will transmit at a
maximum Effective Isotropically Radiated Power ("EIRP") 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. Moreover, the coalition of Wireless Communications Services
("WCS") licensees has stated that it will defer from objecting to STA requests that propose
operations of no more than 2,000 Watts EIRP, even if they do not specify peak or average EIRP,
provided that grant of the STA (i) is conditioned on operation on a non—interference basis; and


‘ To the extent a particular tournament involves play at more than one course, XM intends to
operate a low power repeater at each course.

  (ii) is subject to the condition that the issue of peak versus average EIRP will be addressed in the
  pending DARS rulemaking (IB Docket No. 95—91)." XM agrees to these conditions.

  Background. The Commission has recognized that terrestrial repeaters are critical to satellite
  radio to overcome the effects of signal blockage and multipath interference.* Consistent with
  this policy, in September 2001 the Bureau granted XM an STA to operate terrestrial repeaters
  while the Commission concludes its rulemaking proceeding regarding final technical rules." In
  granting this STA, the Bureau noted that XM "needs to employ terrestrial repeaters to provide
— adequate service." See XM Radio STA Order § 7. Soon after grant of this STA, XM began
  providing commercial service. Since that time, satellite radio in general and XM in particular
  have proven to be a highly attractive service to American consumers, confirming the
  Commission‘s vision in establishing the satellite radio service. As of now, XM serves over 8
  million subscribers.

  In March 2005, XM announced the addition of a PGA Tour Network channel to its channel line—
  up, to provide coverage of the weekly PGA Tour event along with daily programs designed for
  golf enthusiasts. Moreover, at the weekly PGA Tour event, XM offers portable, hand—held
  satellite radios for sale or rental to spectators. By tuning to the XM PGA Tour Network channel,
  spectators are able to keep track of the leader board and follow real—time action around the
  course. The portable radios also inform spectators of impending severe weather.

  Requestfor 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 grant" 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

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

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 low 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.

Operation of one low power repeater at each weekly PGA Tour event will not cause harmful
interference to adjacent—band Wireless Communications Service ("WCS") licensees 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. While XM is unaware of
any WCS operations in the markets listed in Exhibit A, even if there were, under current rules, it
is extremely unlikely that WCS equipment would be used on a golf course. Second, the potential
for interference is further minimized by the fact that the EIRP of the repeater will never exceed 2
kW EIRP. 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 concern.*

Attached as Exhibit B is the following technical information for the low 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

blanketing interference from DARS repeaters that operate with an Equivalent Isotropically

concerning peak vs. average EIRP raised by the WCS Coalition in IB Docket No. 95—91. See
File No. SAT—STA—20061114—00138 (granted Feb. 7, 2007).

course." XM accordingly requests the flexibility to operate one low power repeater at the events
listed in Exhibit A within the range of technical parameters listed in Exhibit B.

XM certifies that its operation of the low power repeater will comply with the same conditions
the Bureau imposed on XM in granting its current STA to operate a low power repeater at PGA
Tour events. See XM Radio PGA STA Order. Specifically, XM Radio certifies the following:

    a) Any actions taken as a result of this STA are solely at XM‘s own risk. This STA will not
       prejudice the outcome of the final rules adopted by the Commission in GEN Docket 95—
       91.
    b) Operation of the low power repeater authorized pursuant to this STA is on a non—
       interference basis with respect to all permanently authorized radiocommunication
       facilities. XM will provide the information and follow the process set forth in paragraphs
       14 and 17 in 16 FCC Red 16781 (Int‘l Bur. 2001) as modified by 16 FCC Red 18484
       (Int‘l Bur. 2001).
    c) The low power repeater is restricted to the simultaneous retransmission of the complete
       programming, and only that programming, transmitted by the satellite directly to SDARS
       receivers.
    d) Where applicable, coordination of the low 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.

° 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.E.R. § 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.
XM STA Order § 12. Such a waiver is also consistent with precedent. In granting XM‘s original
repeater STA, the Bureau said 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. 14. 9.

        guidelines for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields as defined in
        Sections 1.1307(b) and 1.1310 of the Comumission‘s rules.
    g) The out—of—band emissions of the low 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 XM
Radio STA Order "[ 14. XM is willing to comply with this requirement, but 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. § 853(a).

XM will provide payment to the Federal Communications Commission for the sum of Seven
Hundred Ninety Dollars ($790.00). This filing fee amount is applicable to requests for STAs for
geostationary ("GSO") satellites. See International and Satellite Services Fee Filing Guide
(September 2006).

Please direct any questions regarding this matter to the undersigned.


                                              Very truly yours,

* 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 XM
Radio STA Order 14. In the XM Radio STA Order, the Bureau stated that it expects "WCS
licensees to provide a schedule or as much advance notice as possible of when their stations are
to be placed in operation." Id. XM has not received information directly from any WCS
licensee regarding their plans for WCS deployment. While one WCS licensee (Horizon Wi—
Com, LLC) has notified the Commission that it is operating WCS base stations in the Buffalo,
Cincinnati, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh MEAs, none of the events listed in Exhibit A will occur
in those MEAs. Moreover, it is not clear from the Horizon Wi—Com notification filed with the
Commission whether its base stations are receiving transmissions from CPE or whether they are
engaged in transmit—only operations. If only the latter, potential interference to the Horizon Wi—
Com base stations is not an issue.
