Rederal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 na a7—503 Februay 1, 2007 Mr. Eddic Maalout Pacifc Satelite Comnection,Inc. 1629 8 Srcet Sacramento, CA 95814 Re: File No: SES—LIC—20070103—00008 Call Sin:E070007 Dear Mr. Maalout On January 3, 2007, Pacific Satelite Comection, Ic. (Pacifc Satellte)filed the above—captioned applicationfor authority to operatea fixed earth sttion hat would communicate with ALSAT— designatedstelites in portions of the extended and conventional C—Band." Pursuant tSection 25.1 I2(aX1) ofthe Commission‘srles, 47 C.F.R. § 25.112(a)(1), we dismiss this appliction as defectve without prejudice to reiing. in Schedule B ofthe icense application, Pacific Satllte indicates that th only Points of Communication forthe proposed earth sutionare ALSAT—designated satlltes. However, only those fixed—satlite servicecarth sations that are both 2—dearee compliant and operte in the conventional C—band frequencies37004200 MHz and $925—6425 Mz are eliibl t request nated steltes aspoints ofcommunication. Because Pacific Sateite proposed aperations in the S850—5925 Mz band, i must idetif the specifc satellit or sutelites with which the proposed earth sation secks to communicate In addition, in response to Question 26 on FC Form 312, Pacifc Sotellite indicates that it eeks a lcense foa TransmitReceive sttion. However, Pacifc Satellit did not iclude thereceive frequency band in response to Questions EG—E47 of Schedule B. Additionally, Paifc Satellte did not providea response to Questions ES through E6O concerning frequency coordiationfor the 5850—5025 MHtz band. Withoutthi nformation he appliction is incomplete Purthermore,in responseto Question E8 in Schedule B, Pacific Sateite indieates thatfequency coordinationis not required. However, prsuant tSection 25.203(e) fthe Commission‘srules, 47 CR § 25.203(0, ll eath sution appliants must complet frequency coordination they intend t operate in frequency bands shared with terestrialservices on a co—primary basis ses0—s¢as and soas.otns ite * Amendment ofthe Commission‘s Regulatay oleies o Alow Non—S.

Federal Communications Commission na .5 Additonally,in response to Question E48 of Schedule B, Paciic Stelitelsts the maximum EIRP percarieforthe 2K40G7E emission as 48 dBW and in response to Question B49,ts the maximum EIRP density per carier as 31.01 dBW/ kife. For emissions having bandwidthsless than 4 kloherte such atheproposed 2K40G7E emisson, the maximum EIRP density in a 4 k band is th same asthe maximum EIRP specified in response to Question E48. Moreoverin response to Question I41/42, Pacifi Satelit indicates that the trnsmit antenna gain is 48. dBi. Based on these values, we calculatea maximum power density at te input of the anterna as—0.1 dBWkite. This value exeeds the maximum input power spectrl density limit of—2.7 dBW/4 kifeforroatiely authorized earth stations in Section 25.212(0)(2) othe Commission‘s rules, 47 CIBR, §25.212(0(@). In such casesapplicants may not use ALSAT—designated satelitesas he point of communication." Thus, Pacifc Satelite mustidentify specific stelitesas ts point of communication for this emission. Als, in accordance with Section 25220(0() of the Commission‘s rules, 47 CF.R. §25.220(0(Z)Paciic Satelite mustsubmia cetifeation described in Section 25.220(e)() ofthe Commission‘s rules, 47 C.FR. §25.220(e11), rom each targetsitelite operator. Pacifi Satelfte‘s application docs not include these centfieations. Further,in response to Question 25 on FCC Form 312, PacifSatelite indicatesthatthe sution is Temporary—Fixed. However, in responseto Questions EL1—EI3 of Schedule B, Pacif Satllte lt a specifc coordinate location for the suation. Thiimpliesthat t station is fixed, ather than temporary—fired. Pursuant o Section 25277 ofthe Commission‘s rules, temporiry fixed earth stations mustremain at asingle ocationforfewer han 6 months. In any reiing, Pcifi Satelit should olaify thtype ofsttion for which it is applying Finaly,in response to Question ES4 of Schedule B, Pacific Sateliteindicates hatthe eastermmost portion of tstelite aris 74° EL. This value is inconsisent with the locaton of the earth station, the15elevation anglelisted asthe esterlimit iresponseto Question ES7, and the 101° easternmostazimuth limit s ndicated in response to Question ESG of Schedule B. Should PacifSatelite refile the applicationit must supply an approprite valuefor eastemmost portion ofthe satelitearefor which it intends o communicate Accordingly, pursuant to Section 25.112(@¥1) ofhe Commission‘srules, 47 CR §25.112(@)(D, and Section 0.261 of the Commission‘s rules on delegations o uthority, 47 CR §0.261, we dismiss your application withoutprejudict refiing.* Sincerely, JeA .
