1.0 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this document is to present the results of the transmit, receive and control system site acceptance tests. The tests present in this report were conducted using the VertexRSI corresponding test procedures. The tests were required after the recent installation of the antennas. The antennas, located in FOX Networks Earth Station in The Woodlands, Texas are 6 each 9.0 meter King Post mounted Cassegrain antenna systems with four ports, C—Band, linear polarized (LP) frequency reuse feed sub—system. 2.0 SUMMARY The RF test results contained in this report show the antenna performance for gain, G/T, sidelobe envelope and cross polarization isolation for the receive and transmit frequency bands. The antenna‘s gains were calculated by the 3db/10db beam width and integration methods. G/T values were derived from the specified antenna and system noise temperatures and the antennas measured gains. Co—polarization patterns were recorded and plotted under the 29—25*log(8) curve. Cross—polarization patterns were recorded and plotted under the corresponding co— polarization patterns. The gain measurement results for all 6 antennas meet the specifications well within measurement error, according to EIA—411—A Standard, Chapter 6. The (6) 9.0m antennas show good sidelobe suppression at transmit frequencies and comply with the regulatory requirements described in Title 47, Part 25.209C of the FCC.

Radiation Hazard Report Page 1 of 5 Analysis of Non—lonizing Radiation for a 9.0—Meter Earth Station System This report analyzes the non—ionizing radiation levels for a 9.0—meter earth station system. The analysis and calculations performed in this report comply with the methods described in the FCC Office of Engineering and Technology Bulletin, No. 65 first published in 1985 and revised in 1997 in Edition 97—01. The radiation safety limits used in the analysis are in conformance with the FCC R&O 96—326. Bulletin No. 65 and the FCC R&O specifies that there are two separate tiers of exposure limits that are dependant on the situation in which the exposure takes place and/or the — status of the individuals who are subject to the exposure. The Maximum Permissible Exposure {(MPE) limits for persons in a General Population/Uncontrolled environment are shown in Table 1. The General Population/Uncontrolled MPE is a function of transmit frequency and is for an exposure period of thirty minutes or less. The MPE limits for persons in an Occupational/Controlled environment are shown in Table 2. The Occupational MPE is a function of transmit frequency and is for an exposure period of six minutes or less. The purpose of the analysis described in this report is to determine the power flux density levels of the earth station in the far—field, near—field, transition region, between the subreflector or feed and main reflector surface, at the main reflector surface, and between the antenna edge and the ground and to compare these levels to the specified MPEs.

Radiation Hazard Report Page 2 of 5 1. Far Field Distance Calculation The distance to the beginning of the far field can be determined from the following equétion: Distance to the Far Field Region R; =0.60 D°/A (1) = 1000.4 m The maximum main beam power density in the far field can be determined from the following equation: On—Axis Power Density in the Far Field S; =GP/(4 1 R;") (2) = 8.382 W/im" = 0.833 mW/cm* 2. Near Field Calculation Power flux density is considered to be at a maximum value throughout the entire length of the defined Near Field region. The region is contained within a cylindrical volume having the same diameter as the antenna. Past the boundary of the Near Field region, the power density from the antenna decreases linearly with respect to increasing distance. The distance to the end of the Near Field can be determined from the following equation: Extent of the Near Field Ra = D/ (4 ) (3) = 4186.8 m The maximum power density in the Near Field can be determined from the following equation: Near Field Power Density Sa = 16.0 41 P / (xD°) (4) = 19.450 W/im* = 1.945 mW/cm* 3. Transition Region Calculation The Transition region is located between the Near and Far Field regions. The power density begins to decrease linearly with increasing distance in the Transition region. While the power density decreases inversely with distance in the Transition region, the power density decreases inversely with the square of the distance in the Far Field region. The maximum power density in the Transition region will not exceed that calculated for the Near Field region. The power density calculated in Section 1 is the highest power density the antenna can produce in any of the regions away from the antenna. The power density at a distance R, can be determined from the following equation: Transition Region Power Density S = Si Ry/R, (5) = 1.945 mW/cm*

Radiation Hazard Report Page 3 of 5 4. Region between the Main Reflector and the Subreflector Transmissions from the feed assembly are directed toward the subreflector surface, and are reflected back toward the main reflector. The most common feed assemblies are waveguide flanges, horns or subreflectors. The energy between the subreflector and the reflector surfaces can be calculated by determining the power density at the subreflector surface. This can be determined from the following equation: Power Density at the Subreflector Ss; = 4000 P / As, | (6) =174.715 mW/cm* 5. Main Reflector Region The power density in the main reflector is determined in the same manner as the power density at the subreflector. The area is now the area of the main reflector aperture and can be determined from the following equation: Power Density at the Main Reflector Surface Ssurtace Z4 P / Asurtace (7) = 29.426 W/im* = 2.943 mW/cm* 6. Region between the Main Reflector and the Ground Assuming uniform iflumination of the reflector surface, the power density between the antenna and the ground can be determined from the following equation: Power Density between Reflector and Ground Sq =P / Asurtace (8) = 7.356 W/im* = 0.736 mW/cm*

Conclusions Based on the above analysis it is concluded that the FCC MPE guidelines have been exceeded {or met) in the regions of Table 4 and 5. The applicant proposes to comply with the MPE limits by one or more of the following methods. Means of Compliance Uncontrolled Areas This antenna will be located in a fenced area. The area will be sufficient to prohibit access to the areas that exceed the MPE limited. The general public will not have access to areas within Va diameter removed from the edge of the antenna. Since one diameter removed from the main beam of the antenna or % diameter removed from the edge of the antenna the RF levels are reduced by a factor of 100 or 20 dB. None of the areas exceeding the MPE levels will be accessible by the general public.

Radiation Hazard Report Page 5 of 5 Radiation hazard signs will be posted while this earth station is in operation. The applicant will ensure that no buildings or other obstacles will be in the areas that exceed the MPE levels. Means of Compliance Gontrolled Areas The earth stations operational will not have access to the areas that exceed the MPE levels while the earth station is in operation. The transmitters will be turned off during antenna maintenance.
