Secretary 445 12th Street, SW ° TW—A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: L3 Communications, Interstate Electronics Corporation (IEC) Application for Earth Station Authority File No.: SES—LIC—20020611—00939 Call Sign: E020160 Dear Ms. Dortch PanAmSat Corporation ("PanAmSat") received from L3 Communications, Interstate Electronics Corporation (IEC) ("IEC"), a letter, dated November 1, 2004, , together with information pertaining to the above referenced application. IEC states that we should reply directly to the FCC on this matter and that the lack of a reply "within thirty calendar days from the date of this notice" would be construed "as an assent to the grant of IEC‘s earth station application". In similar situations, an affidavit is generally the result of an understanding between the operators of the satellites involved (in this case PanAmSat and Intelsat). However, so far we have not been contacted by Intelsat with respect to this matter. In particular, PanAmSat is concerned with the following specific points: (i) IEC states "that the ESVs will operate with a +0.2° pointing accuracy" and then goes on to say that "the operator will terminate ESV transmission when the antenna goes beyond +0.5°". These statements lead to the understanding that the pointing accuracy is actually +0.5° and the matter needs clarification. (ii) According to the ESV link parameters provided by IEC, it is concluded that the input power density to the antenna may exceed by more than 5 dB the 1801 K STREET, NW * SUITE 440 « WASHINGTON.
