  Dear Mr. Warren:

  On February 26, 2004, Orbimage filed the above captioned application for authority to operate a
  temporary—fixed receive—only ground station in the $025—8400 MHz band.
  We note that in the cover letter of your application you indicate that Orbimage would accept any
  harmful interference received from other Commission licenseesor authorized government users.
   In this regard since the application requests authority solely for receive—only operations and on
  an unprotected basis, we do not see any reason to license this earth station and you may receive
  in the 8025—8400 MHz band from U.S. Licensed Satellites without further Commission authority
  with the understanding that operations are on an unprotected basis.
  We also note that in the attachment to Item E10, you indicate that subject to receipt of all
  necessary licenses or approvals from U.S. and foreign regulatory authorities, Orbimage may lease
  this earth station on a temporary basis for use outside the U.S. The Communications Act does
  not reguire licensing of temporary fixed earth stations for operations outside the United States
  unless transmitting from a vessel oaircraft of the United States.

  Accordingly, Orbimage‘s application IS DISMISSED as moot.


                                                              Sincerely,


                                                              Fem J. Jarmuinek
                                                              Deputy Chief, Satellte Division
