    1. Summary of Results
On behalf of Telesat Canada, Comsearch performed a coordination notice for all existing and
proposed terrestrial licenses within the coordination contours of their proposed Ka-Band earth
station in Middletown, Virginia, which will transmit at 28 GHz1. Prior-notification letters were
sent to the licensees and a copy of the notification data is provided in section four of this report.
The earth station coordination was finalized on September 18, 2015.

No objections were received from any of the incumbent 28 GHz licensees.


    2. 28 GHz Common Carrier and LTTS Coordination
In accordance with FCC Rules and Regulations, the Ka-Band earth station in Middletown,
Virginia was prior-coordinated by Comsearch. A notification letter and datasheet for this earth
station were sent to the following 28 GHz common carrier fixed microwave licensee on
September 3, 2015. This licensee is authorized to operate temporary fixed operations from 27.5
to 29.5 GHz on a nationwide basis.

A notification letter and datasheets for the Ka-Band earth station in Middletown, Virginia were
also sent to the following 28 GHz local television transmission licensee on September 3, 2015.
This licensee is authorized to operate temporary fixed operations from 27.5 to 29.5 GHz on a
nationwide basis.

 3. 28 GHz LMDS Coordination
The proposed earth station will not operate on frequencies that overlap Block A of the LMDS
service. Therefore, no LMDS coordination was necessary.

The total frequency allocation for Block A of the LMDS spectrum appears below.

Block A:        27.500-28.350 GHz
                29.100-29.250 GHz
                31.075-31.225 GHz
