1. CONCLUSIONS



An interference study considering all existing, proposed and prior coordinated microwave
facilities within the coordination contours of the proposed earth station demonstrates that
this site will operate satisfactorily with the common carrier microwave environment, based
upon the restrictions noted in the Summary of Results (Section 2).

2. SUMMARY OF RESULTS


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

The following companies reported potential great circle interference conflicts that did not
meet the objectives on a line-of-sight basis. When frequency separation and over-the-
horizon losses are considered on the interfering paths, sufficient losses exist to negate
harmful interference from occurring with the proposed transmit-receive earth station.
Further, the transmit spectrum will be limited to frequencies 5925.0 to 6048.7 MHz, 6109.0
to 6182.0 MHz, 6212.5 to 6330.0 MHz, 6361.0 to 6389.5 MHz, and 6420.0 to 6425.0 MHz.
