8. Description XM Radio Inc. (XM) requests renewal of special temporary authority (STA) for 30 days to conduct a limited In−Orbit Test of XM−1 (Call Sign S2118), which currently operates as an in−orbit spare, and take EIRP measurements of the payload of that satellite. As a result of a delay in developing the testing procedure, XM may be unable to complete testing within the 30−day period authorized pursuant to File No. SAT−STA−20071019−00144. As stated in the initial STA application, the testing will not cause interference to XM or other satellite operators. The specific frequency for testing will be 2338.75 MHz, which is at the center of XM’s licensed spectrum and normally used by terrestrial repeaters. The transponders will be operated at saturation (approximately 70 dBW). The test transmissions from XM−1 will comply with all power flux density restrictions applicable to XM’s current operating satellites, XM−3 and XM−4. The testing is required to assess the performance of the XM system and the state of health of the XM−1 payload. The emissions designators for the test transmission for the test signals are 1M84G1EDW and N. 5
