1 . CONCLUSION S



An interference study considering all existing, proposed and prior coordinated microwav e
facilities within the coordination contours of the proposed earth station demonstrates tha t
this site will operate satisfactorily with the common carrier microwave environment .
Further, there will be no restrictions of its operation due to interference considerations .

2 . SUMMARY OF RESULT S



A number of great circle interference cases were identified during the interference stud y
of the proposed earth station . Each of the cases, which exceeded the interferenc e
objective on a line-of-sight basis, was profiled and the propagation losses estimated usin g
NBS TN101 (Revised) techniques . The losses were found to be sufficient to reduce th e
signal levels to acceptable magnitudes in every case .

The following companies reported potential great circle interference conflicts that did no t
meet the objectives on a line-of-sight basis . When over-the-horizon losses are considere d
on the interfering paths, sufficient blockage exists to negate harmful interference fro m
occurring with the proposed transmit-receive earth station .


        Company

        None


No carriers reported potential interference cases .

3 . SUPPLEMENTAL SHOWIN G
Pursuant to Part 25 .203(c) of the FCC Rules and Regulations, the satellite earth station proposed in thi s
application was coordinated by Comsearch using computer techniques and in accordance with Part 25 of th e
FCC Rules and Regulations .

Expedited coordination data for this earth station was e-mailed and/or faxed to the below listed carriers with a
letter dated July 14, 2005 .
