Reovesr ror Sreciat. Teviroxary Avtorry Call Signs: E020241 and E020242 Hughes Network Systems, Inc. (°HNS®) hereby requestsan extension of ts current Special Temporary Authority (STA") for up t 180 days to continue conducting transfer orbit, XIPS ascent, telemety, tracking and control ("TT&C") operations,and in— orbittesing for the SPACEWAY 2 satelite (call sign $2133), from its Canoga Park, California and Litteton, Colorado earth stations, Call Signs E020241 and 020242. The SPACEWAY satelites are among the first, if not the frst, sateltes liensed by the Commission to be Iainched and placed into orbit using TT&C links in the Ka— band. HNS‘s existing earth station authorizations include Commission approval fortheir use in support of transfer orbit and TT&C operations. Bosing, however,has concluded that the authorizations do not include transmit power levels and carriers thatare adequate to ensure the absolute safty of SPACEWAY 2, as well as other spacecraft during the transfer orbit and in—orbit esting processes. Under these circumstances, the pruder course is to request temporary use of enlanced operational levels to support the intil phases ofthe SPACEWAY mission. SPACEWAY 2 was successfully launched on November 16, for deployment to the 99.2° W.L. orbital location. Pursuant to an STA, Bocing currently provides the services requested herein for SPACEWAY 2 from HNS‘s Canoga Park, Califoria carth station, and also has simila authorization to use HNS‘s Litleton, Colorado earth station to provide backup and support services," The SPACEWAY 2 satelite was originally scheduled for launch in June, but was delayed due to a problem with another sateite scheduled to be Iunched as a co—passenger on the same launch vehicle. Accordingly, the XIPS ascent phase and in—orbittesting cannot be completed within the term ofthe original STA, which expizes ater this month. Accordingly, HNS respectfully requests that the Commission extend the current STA for a period ofup to 180 days to complete the process of esting and delivering SPACEWAY 2 to ts licensed orbital location. !— See Rep. No. SES—00723 (re. June 22, 2005(RCC Fle Nos.SES—STA—2005050:00839 (Litleton) and SES—STA—20080503—00523 (Canoga Park).
