                                                                      (Debtor—In—Possession)

  Dear Mr. Edinger:

          On September 20, 2004, Loral Spacecom Corporation (Debtor—In—Possession) ("Loral") filed an
   application, File No. SES—AMD—20040921—01406, to amend a pending application, File No. SES—LIC—
   20040210—00282. The amendment modifies the pending application by changing the frequency bands
   from 11700—12200 MHz (receive) and 14000—14500 MHz (transmit) to carrier frequencies 12023.716
   MHz (receive) and 13905.722 MHz (transmit). The amendment also supplied a link—budget analysis and
   copies of correspondence indicating that coordination between the HISPASAT—1C and INTELSAT
   networks is complete. In addition it requested a waiver of 47 CFR § 25.204(f). For the reasons stated
   below, we dismiss both the amendment and the original application.

            Section 25.114(c) of the Commission‘s rules requires all space station applicants to submit all
   applicable items of information listed in its subsections. Section 25.137(b) of the Commission‘s rules
   states that applications for earth station‘s seeking to access a non—U.S.—licensed satellite, such as the
   HISPASAT—1C, must also include the same information as required in Section 25.114(c) for the foreign
   space station. The Loral application as amended is incomplete because it does not demonstrate that
   HISPASAT—1C is designed to operate within a +/— 0.05 degree station—keeping tolerance as set forth in
   Section 25.114(c)(9) of the Commission‘s rules nor does it include a two—degree spacing interference
   analysis as required by Section 25.114(c)(17) and 25.140 of the rules. ‘




   ‘_ See letter from Thomas S. Tycz, Chief, Satellite Division, International Bureau, FCC to Stanley Edinger,
   Manager, Government Affairs, Loral Skynet (July 23, 2004) requesting additional information regarding File No.
   SES—LIC—20040210—00282.


       Accordingly, application SES—LIC—20040210—00282, as amended by SES—AMD—20040921—01406,
IS DISMISSED without prejudice to refiling" pursuant to 47 CFR § 25.114(c) and 47 CFR § 25.112(c).
This action is taken pursuant to 47 CFR § 0.261.


                                                                Sincerely,

                                                                         hy S
                                                                Thomas S. Tycz
                                                                Chief
                                                                Satellite Division




> If Loral refiles an application identical to the one dismissed, with the exception of supplying the defective
information, it need not pay a further application fee. See 47 CFR § 1.1109(d).
