Re:        AT&T Corp. Modification of Call Sign E980066 to Replace Antenna, Add Ku‐Band
           Frequencies, and Correct Geographic Coordinates, SES‐MOD‐20180821‐02252

Dear Ms. Dortch:

AT&T Corp. (“AT&T”), by its undersigned counsel, respectfully submits this supplement to the
above‐captioned earth station modification application, which seeks authority to add
conventional Ku‐band and extended Ku‐band frequencies to the current authorization. Section
25.204(e)(2)1 and footnote US357 to the Table of Frequency Allocations2 specify certain
conditions on earth stations transmitting in the 13.75‐14.00 GHz band. Specifically, the EIRP
density must not exceed 71 dBW in any 6 MHz in the 13.77‐13.78 GHz band, and automatic
power control may be used to increase the EIRP density in a 6 MHz band in the 13.77‐13.78 GHz
band beyond the 71 dBW value provided that the power flux‐density at the satellite in that 6
MHz does not exceed the value that would be obtained from an emission at 71 dBW in clear‐
sky conditions.

AT&T confirms that automatic power control will be used on the transmissions in this band and
that the power control will be adjusted such that the clear‐sky EIRP density of any emission in
any 6 MHz in the 13.77‐13.78 GHz band will not exceed 71 dBW. AT&T further confirms that
the accuracy of the power control is such that, under faded conditions, the power flux density
at the satellite in any 6 MHz in the 13.77‐13.78 GHz band will not exceed the value that would
be obtained from an emission at 71 dBW in that 6 MHz in clear‐sky conditions.

Please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned should you have any questions.
