                             Call Signs: £020772 and E930229


             DIRECTV Enterprises, LLC (‘DIRECTV) hereby requests Special Temporary
     Authority (°STA") to conduct telemetry, tracking and control ("TT&C") operations with
     the DIRECTV 2 satellite during its drift from the nominal 101° W.L. orbital location to
     91° W.L., and for a period of time once the satellite i relocated. DIRECTV requests that
     this STA be issued for a period of 30 days, becoming effective concurrent with the
     effective date of the STA requested for relocation ofthe DIRECTV 2 space station,
     which DIRECTV hopes would be on or about December 20, 2005.
            DIRECTV recently replaced DIRECTV 2 with the DIRECTV 8 satellite,and the
     transfer of trafic will be complete by November 15. As noted above, DIRECTV has
     applied fr an STA to relocate DIRECTV 2 from its current orbit at 100.6° W.L. to the
     Broadcasting Satellite Service ("BSS") slot allocated to Canada at 91° W.L. in the ITU
     Region 2 BSS Plan. Under an arrangement with Telesat Canada (*Telesat"), and subject
     to receiving the requisite approvals from both the U.S. and Canadian regulatory
     authorities,this satellite would then be used by Telesat to support BSS service into
     Canada from that orbital location.
             DIRECTV will turm off the communications payload on DIRECTV 2 during its
     relocation to and initial operation at 91° W.L. and will operate only the TT&C payload
     using the following frequencies:
                   Uplink:         17303.0 MHz
                   Downlink:       12201.0 and 12202.25 MHz

            Grant of this STA request will serve the public interest by providing increased
and better service to Canadian BSS customers as a result of the improvement in satelite
capacity, and helping to ensure that no existing signals need to be turned down. In
addition, grant of this STA request will not result in increased risk of harmful
interference to any other system. This earth station is already authorized to provide
TT&C services using the frequencies needed for the drift of DIRECTV 2. Moreover,
DIRECTV will coordinate with potentially affected satellite operators in accordance with
industry practice and will operate on a nom—interference basis.
        As stated above, DIRECTV requests that this STA be issued for a period of 30
days, becoming effective concurrent with the effective date of the STA requested for
relocation of the DIRECTV 2 space station.
