                                                      Re: File No.: SES—ASG—20110506—00559

Dear Mr. Cook:

         On May 6, 2011, Videocom Satellite Associates, Inc. (Videocom) and Metrovision
Production Group, LLC (Metrovision), filed the referenced application for assignment of four
earth stations, call signs E980388, E990026, E890129, and E990347, from Videocom to
Metrovision. For the reason stated below, we dismiss the application as defective, without
prejudice to refiling.‘

         Section 25.112 of the Commission‘s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.112, requires the Commission
to return, as unacceptable for filing, any earth station application that is not substantially
complete, contains internal inconsistencies, or does not substantially comply with the
Commission‘s rules. The application is not substantially complete, which renders it unacceptable
and subject to dismissal. The deficiency is as follows:

        Question A21 of FCC Form 312—ScheduleA requires that the applicant "attach as Exhibit
F, a complete statement setting forth the facts which show how the assignment or transfer will
serve the public interest." The application does not include the required exhibit.

        In light of the above, pursuant to Section 25.112(a)(1) of the Commission‘s rules, 47
C.FR. § 25.112(a)(1) and Section 0.261 of the Commission‘s rules on delegations of authority,
47 C.F.R. § 0.261, we dismiss the referenced application without prejudice to re—filing.

         Although not a basis for dismissal, we also request that any re—filed application include
information concerning the ownership of Metrovision, including the names, addresses,
citizenship, and the percentages of voting and equity interests of those owners holding 10 percent
or more of Metrovision.

                                                               Sincerely,


                                                                 4A

                                                              Robert G. Nelson
                                                              Chief, Satellite Division
                                                              International Bureau


‘_ If Videocom and Metrovision re—file an application that supplies the missing information within 30
days, they need not submit an application fee. See 47 C.F.R. §1.1111(d). We note, in addition, that in
order for any re—filed application to be processed both Videocom and Metrovision will need to resolve
certain financial obligations that are currently shown as unpaid in Commission records and that have
resulted in "red—light" status.
