1. CONCLUSIONS



An interference study considering all existing, proposed and prior coordinated microwave
facilities within the coordination contours of the proposed earth station demonstrates that
this site will operate satisfactorily with the common carrier microwave environment.
Further, there will be no restrictions of its operation due to interference considerations.

2. SUMMARY OF RESULTS


An interference study was completed for the proposed earth station. The analysis did not
identify any potential interference conflicts within the coordination contours of the
proposed earth station site. There are no unresolved interference objections with this
earth station antenna.
