Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 pa os237 August 30, 2005 Mr. Stanley Edinger Loral Skynet 500 Hils Drive PO Box 7018 Bedminster, NJ 07921—7018 Re:Call Sign: E980250 File No.: SES—MOD—20050727—00991 Dear Mr. Edinger: On July 27, 2005, Loral Skynet Network Services, Inc. (Debtor—in—Possession) (Loral Skynet)filed the above—captioned application to add, among other things, the Extended— C—Band!frequencies to ts licensed earth station in Kapolei, Hawaii (E980250). This earth station is authorized to communicate with the Telstar 18 satellite, which is licensed by Tonga. Pursuant to Section 25.112@@)(1) of the Commission‘s rules, 47 CER. § 25.112(a)(1), we dismiss this application as defective, without prejudice to refiing, due to internal inconsistencies. In answering question 27 of the Main Form of Form 312, which relates to the purpose of the application, you indicate that the application is intended to add frequencies to an existing license. In Schedule B of your application you propose to add Destination Points to your existing license, as well. Your description of the application in response to question 43 of the main form, however, makes no mention of additional destination points. Based on these responses we are uncertain as to whether, and to what extent, you seek to add additional frequencies and destination points and therefore your application is defective. Further,to the extent you seek to add Kazakhstan as a Destination Point, your application does not include an ECO—SAT analysis for Kazakhstan. Since the licensing administration of the Telstar 18 satellite is not a member ofthe World Trade Organization (WTO), an ECO—SAT analysis is required for all route marketsthat are not WTO members pursuant to Section 25.137(2)(1) and 25.137(@)(2) ofthe Commission‘s rules." Since Kazakhstan is not a WTO member, in any refiling you must supply an ! 6425—6650 Mz band. * arorR $s 25137000 and 2s 13700).

Federal Communications Commission paos2a7 ECO—SAT analysis with respect to Kazakhstan before we could consider authorizing service to that country via Telstar 18. Accordingly, pursuant to Section 25.112(a)(1)° ofthe Commission‘s rules, 47 C.ER. § 25.112(a)(1), and Section 0.261 ofthe Commission‘s rules on delegations of authority, 47 C.FR. §0.261, we dismiss your application as defective without prejudice to refiling.

Kotler Chief, Systems Analysis Branch Satellte Division International Bureau 3. 47 CER. §25.112@)() See also Echostar Stelite LLC, Order on Reconsideraion, DA 04—4056 (relased December 27, 2000
