                                                        File No.: SES—LIC—20120521—00455

Dear Mr. Mavros:

On May 21, 2012, Christian Television Corporation, Inc. (Christian Television) filed the above—
captioned application for a new fixed earth station. Pursuant to Section 25.112(a)(1) of the
Commission‘s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.112(a)(1), we dismiss the application as defective without
prejudice to re—filing.‘

Section 25.112(a) of the Commission‘s rules requires the Commission to return, as unacceptable
for filing, any earth station application that is not substantially complete, contains internal
inconsistencies, or does not substantially comply with the Commission‘s rules." For the reasons
set forth below, we find the application of Christian Television unacceptable for filing.

     e   Applicants for new transmitting facilities are required to include a radiation hazard study
         with their applications." Christian Television did not submit the required radiation hazard
          study.


     e   In items E43/44 of Schedule B to.FCC Form 312, Christian Television lists the 6425—
         9525 MHz frequency band as desired frequencies of operation. Fixed—Satellite Service is
         not authorized throughout that frequency band, and the requested space station point of
         communication, AMC—1, is only authorized to operate in the 5925— 6425 MHz frequency
         band.

     e   In item 47 of Schedule B to FCC Form 312, Christian Television lists an emission
         designator as "3m7oglf." That emission designator does not comply with the format
         prescribed by Section 2.201 of the Commission‘s rules.*


‘   If Christian Television re—files an application identical to the one dismissed, with the exception of
supplying the corrected information, it need not pay an application fee. See 47 C.F.R. § 1.1111(d).
2 47 CFR. § 25.112(a).
_   See Item 28 of Schedule B to FCC Form 312 and 47 C.F.R §§ 1.1307(b) and 1.1310.

* 47 C.FR. § 2.201.


                                      Federal Communications Commission                         DA 13—1462




We also note that Christian Television did not submit a current frequency coordination report. If
Christian Television re—files an application it must file a coordination report that is less than six
months old."

Accordingly, pursuant to Section 25.112(a)(1) of the Commission‘s rules, 47 C.F.R. §
25.112(a)(1), and Section 0.261 of the Commission‘s rules on delegations of authority, 47 C.F.R.
§ 0.261, we dismiss the application, without prejudice to re—filing.

° The FCC has stated that earth station applications must include a Frequency Coordination and
Interference Analysis Report that are not older than 6 months from the date the earth station application is
filed. See "Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ): Processing of Earth Station Applications," Question 15,
available online at http://transition.fec.gov/ib/sd/esa/faq.htmI#FAQ15. See also 47 C.F.R. § 25.134(d)
(requiring each receiving earth station to be constructed within 6 months after coordination has been
