Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 DA 13—1970 September 24, 2013 Ms. Cynthia L. Lynch GCI Communication Corp. 2550 Denali St, Ste 1000 Anchorage, AK 99503 —2737 geilicensemanager@gei.com Call Sign: E020176 File No.: SES—MOD—20130405—00310 Dear Ms. Lynch: On April 5, 2013, GCI Communication Corp. (GCT) filed the above—captioned application to modify its earth station authorization to add a 3.8—meter antenna to operate in the 3700—4200 MHz (space—to—Earth) and 5925—6425 MHz (Earth—to—space) frequency bands. We dismiss the above— captioned application as defective without prejudice to re—filing.‘ Section 25.112(a)(1) of the Commission‘s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.112(a)(1), requires the Commission to return, as unacceptable for filing, any earth station application that is not substantially complete, that contains internal inconsistencies, or that does not substantially comply with the Commission‘s rules. We find that GCT‘s application is incomplete and internally inconsistent for the reason discussed below. e GCI did not identify the intended points of communication in item E21of Schedule B to Form 312 for Antenna Id 2. e GCI lists the EIRP density in item E49 of Schedule B for emission designators 36M0G7D and 6K72G7D as 50.0 dBW/4kHz. Based on other information provided by GCI elsewhere in its application, we calculate that EIRP density should be 46.4 dBW/A4kHz and $4.2 dBW/AkHz respectively for those emission designators." Moreover we note that the total EIRP for all carriers listed in item E40 exceeds the value listed in item E48. Thus, the values provided in the application are inconsistent. I If GCI re—files an application identical to the one dismissed, with the exception of supplying the corrected information, it need not pay an application fee. See 47 C.F.R. § 1.1111(d). 2 GCI states in items E48 and E47of the Schedule B that the EIRP per carrier is 86.0 dBW and the carrier is 36MHz (75.6dB) and 6kHz (37.8dB) wide respectively. Accordingly, we convert the Carrier EIRP to Carrier EIRP Density/4kHz as follows: 86.0 dBW/carrier — 75.6 dB/carrier + 36 dB/AkHz, which equals a maximum EIRP Density/4kHz of 46.4 dBW/4kHz and 86.0 dBW/carrier — 37.8 dB/carrier + 36 dB/4kHz, which equals a maximum EIRP Density/4kHz of 84.2 dBW/AkHz.

Federal Communications Commission DA 13—1970 Accordingly, pursuant to Section 25.112(a)(1) of the Commission‘s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.112(a)(1), and Section 0.261(a)(4) of the Commission‘s rules on delegations of authority, 47 C.E.R. § 0.261(a)(4), we dismiss the above—captioned application without prejudice to re—filing. ‘Paul E.
