Dortch Secretary Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, S.W. Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: EchoStar 77 Corporation, File Nos. File No. SES-MOD-20110707-00193, Call Sign E050196 Dear Ms. Dortch: Upon consultation with Bureau officials, EchoStar 77 Corporation (“EchoStar”) hereby clarifies and supplements the above-captioned application to specify that the requested blanket authority is for operations with QuetzSat-1 at 77.05° W.L. Specifically, the technical annex to the application states that QuetzSat-1 will be initially located at 77.05° W.L. and eventually relocated to 77.0° W.L.1 But since the stay of QuetzSat-1 at 77.05° W.L. is currently estimated to take six months or more after the arrival of the satellite at the 77° W.L. cluster, EchoStar is prepared to accept an authorization for 77.05° W.L. now, and will request any necessary further authority prior to a move to 77.0° W.L. Therefore, EchoStar is now requesting authority to operate with QuetzSat-1 at 77.05° W.L. Please contact the undersigned if you have any questions regarding this filing. 1 See EchoStar 77 Corporation, Application to Modify Blanket Earth Station Application, File No. SES-MOD-20110707-00193, at Technical Annex § A.11.3 (filed July 7, 2011).
