Federal Communications Commission. Washington, D.C. 20554 August 1, 2014 DA 14—1120 Mr. Frankie Winsett Christian Television of Palm Beach County, Inc. 1900 S. Congress Ave. Suite B West Palm Beach, FL 33406—6689 buddy@chameleoncom.com Call Sign: E130215 _ File No.: SES—LIC—20131024—00897 Dear Mr. Winsett: On October 24, 2013, Christian Television of Palm Beach County, Inc. (Christian Television) filed the above—captioned application for a license to operate a new transmit—only fixed earth station in West Palm Beach, Florida. The earth station, equipped with a Comtech 4.1— meter OffSat antenna, would operate in the 6344 —6348 MHz frequency band with the Intelsat 16 satellite at the 58.1° W.L. orbital location. For the reasons indicated below, we dismiss the application as defective, without prejudice to re—filing.‘ Section 25.112 of the Commission‘s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.112, requires the Commission to return, as unacceptable for filing, any earth station application that is not substantially complete, that contains internal inconsistencies, or that does not substantially comply with the Commission‘s rules. Christian Television‘s application contains internal inconsistencies that render it unacceptable and subject to dismissal. The deficiencies are: e Item E40 of the Schedule B lists the Total EIRP for all carriers as 64.9 dBW; however, this value is inconsistent with our calculated EIRP of 58.68 dBW that is based on the technical information provided in item E41 and item E38 (10 log (19W) + 45.9 dBi= 58.68 dBW). e Item E48 of the Schedule B, which lists the maximum EIRP per carrier for emission 2M50GT7D as~ 9.0 dBW, is inconsistent with the value listed in item E49 and appears to be low for operations with satellites. While not grounds for dismissal, we note that the Frequency Coordination exhibit states that additional emission designators, 3M0OGIF and 3M0G7D, were coordinated, but these emissions are not listed in Schedule B. Therefore, if Christian Television intends to use these additional emission carriers, it must file an application to modify its authorization that lists these emissions and provides a new frequency coordination study. _ If Christian Television re—files an application in which the deficiencies identified in this letter have been corrected, but is otherwise identical to the one dismissed, it need not pay an application fee. See 47 C.F.R. § 1.1111(d).

Federal Communications Commission DA 14—1120 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 Commiuission‘s rules on delegations of authority, 47 C.F.R. § 0.261, we dismiss Christian Television‘s application without prejudice to re—filing. Sincerely, fotulT fln Paul E. Blais Chief, Systems Analysis Branch Satellite Division International Bureau
