eooem sesstnmmmmmeonme DIRECTV Enterprses, LC m * S‘ Requesr ror Sreciat. Tevrorary Autiortry Call Sign: 2930220 DIRECTV Enterprises, LLC (DIRECTV®)hereby requests Special Temporary Authority ("STA®) to conduct tlemety, tracking and contral ("TT&C") operations with the DIRECTV 5 satellite during itsdrif from 72.5° W.L.orbital location to 109.8° W.L. from approximately September 18 to October 18. This STA, which will enable DIRECTV to reposition DIRECTV 5 to replace another satelite in is fleet that is experiencing technical anomalies, will replace a previous STA that DIRECTV is unable to use due to a minor but unanticipated delay in the transfer of trafic. DIRECTV currenty is using DIRECTV 5 to provide DBS service in the United States from the Canadian—controlled orbital location at 72.5° WL. DIRECTV has been granted authority to swap DIRECTV 1 for DIRECTV 5 at that location and to then relocate DIRECTV 5 to 109.8° W.L. onee trafic transfer is complete." DIRECTV also has been granted an STA to use this earth station to provide TT&C for DIRECTV 5 during its dri over the specified period from September 2 to October 1." DIRECTV 1 has been relocated to the 72.5° W.L. orbitallocation, but due to unexpected complications, trific transfer will not take place until mid—September. DIRECTV therefore will not be able to complete trafic transfer and relocation of the DIRECTV 5 satellite within the timeffame specified in the STA previousty granted for this earth station, and thus will not use that STA. Accordingly, DIRECTV hereby requests a new STA to cover the revised timeframe anticipated for stellte migration to 109.8° W.L. — approximately September 18 through October 18. During the relocation of DIRECTV 5, the satellte‘s communications payload will remain inactive and only the TT&C payload will operate. DIRECTV requests authority to operate on the following TT&C frequencies: Uplinke 17301 and 17305 MHz Downlinks 12201 and 12202 MHz. DIRECTV will coordinate with potentially affected satelite operators in accordance with industry practice, and will operate on a nor—interference basis. Grant o this STA request will serve the public interest by allowing DIRECTV to conduct the maneuvers necessary to address DIRECTV 6‘ failing health and ensure uninterrupted service to DIRECTV subscribers. In addition, grant othis STA request will not result in increased risk of harmful interference to any other system. This cath ! See DIRECTV Enterprises, LLC,DA.05—1890 (In! Bur, rel.July 14, 2005) * See File No. SES—$TA—20050518—00617.

stationis already authorized to provide TT&C services using the frequencies needed for the drif of DIRECTV 5." Accordingly, DIRECTV respectfully requests that the Commission grant this STA request as expeditiously as possible. DIRECTV is also secking smilar STA for a second eath sation (E930304)in theinterest ofredundancy during the drif process.
