Transition Region (Rt)                                                  equal to or less than
       Ru<Rt<Rf                                                         16.018 mW/cm sq          Potential Hazard
Between Main Reflector                                                  N/A (no subreflector)
and Subreflector (Ws)

       and Ground
Far Field Off Axis (WF)                                                 0.082         mW/cm sq   Meets ANSI Requirements
Near Field Off Axis (WN)                                                0.160         mW/cm sq   Potential Hazard



Conclusion: Based on the above analysis, harmful areas of Radiation do exist in the areas around the antenna and in the
path of the antenna toward the satellite that it is pointed at. The Area occupied by the general public will not exceed the
ANSI limit of 1mW cm sq. becuase the antenna is mounted on top of the truck, which is at least 8 feet above the ground,
and safety increases with look angles used by the Satellites in the United States on Dom. Sat. arch. The areas on the
ground and behind the antenna are 100 times less power (20dB) when at a min. of the dia. of the reflector. This is
reflected in the Off Axis figures as seen above (WF) & (WN). The SNG will be marked with the standard radiation hazard
warnings, and on the antenna itself. The warning signs will warn personnel to avoid the area around and in front of the
reflector when the transmitter is operating. To ensure compliance with safety limits, the earth station transmitter will
be turned off and marked to remain off whenever maintenance and repair personnel are required to work in the areas
of potential hazard as defined in the above study. Additionally, the earth station personnel will be trained to ensure that
the antenna path is clear at all times while the transmitter is in operation. The only access to the roof of the truck is a
ladder that is not accessible by the general public.



Note: See Exhibit #Ba for how the above calculations were made.
