Lockheed Marses. str.porau0e asoey:"*"‘"" eosease in Cor ‘#200b00vaee ECC Form 312 —STA Attachment January 2006 EXPLANATION AND PUBLIC INTEREST STATEMENT Lockkheed Martin Corporation (*Lockheed Martin®) has filed an application for permanent authority to operite a new transmitreceive earth station at Brewster, Washington (File No. SES—LIC—20051 123—01636, as amended by SES—AMD—INTR2006—00243), which is proposed for permanent operation with ts RPS—2 space station at 107.3° W.L. On December 15, 2005, the Commission granted Lockheed Marti‘s application fora specialtemporary authority ("STA") to operate the originally—proposed earth station prioto grant oftpermanent application, for a sixty—day term that ends on February 15, 2006. See File No. SES—STA— 20051202—01672. The amendment was filed on January 25, 2006. In the instant application for an STA, Lockheed Martin seeks to modify the existing pre— operation STA to include pre—srant operation ofthe proposed earth station that is reflected in the application as amended. A reference copy of the January 25, 2006 amendment is included with this request. Lockheed Martin requests that the authority sought here be granted effective February 1, 2006 — which is more than three business days after the iling ofthis application. The Telesat Anik FIR satelite on which the RPS—2 space station is hosted is in orbit and on station. The new uplink frequency Lockheed Martin proposes in the amendment toits pending Brewster eath station application is itended for use solely with the RPS—2 space station for both operational and telecommand/control links. Lockheed Martin has been operating the Brewster earth station with one uplink frequeney pursuant to the STA granted in December 2005; however, Lockheed Martin now has an immediate need to operate the newly proposed frequency on the Brewster eath station to communicate with the RPS—2 space station to continue integration ofthe payload and earth station. As part ofthe temporary, pre—grant use ofthe RNSS L—band receive and C—band transmit authoriti requested in the amendment to the permanent application, Lockheed Martin will completein—orbit testing ofthe RPS—2 payload, and integrate the payload with the earth station. In this connection, and to ssure compatible operation with the GPS system, Lockheed Martin will,for the GPS LS frequency, use a single carrier wave tone, either: (1)fixed in frequency centered atthe GPS LS spectrum center, or(2) swept across the GPS LS frequency spectrum. "The power to be transmitted is between 26.02 dBW and 18.02 dBW, exceptfor a single test where the fixed frequency is t full power, 33.02 dBW. The contact point, who can cease transmissions if interference is detected in the GPS LS frequency band, is Lockheed Martin employee Dan Heil, who can be contacted at (408) 348—0795. This same condition regarding the GPS LS frequency band, which was theresult ocoordination with the operator ofhe GPS system, was imposed in the grant ofa temporary authorization Lockheed Martin received in December 2005in connection with an earth station that Lockheed Martin was then using for testing of ts RPS—1 space sttion from the temporary location at150° W.L.. See File No. SES— sTa—20011110—01549.

ECC Form 312 — STA Attachment January 2006 Lockheed Martin notes, as a final mattr, that it wlllikely regquire an extension of ts current STA for pre—srant operation ofthe earth station as originally proposed (ie., he STA that expires on February 15, 2006). t would greatly simplify matters for both the Commission and Lockheed Marti ifthe Commission would renew the original STA (Le., File No. SES—STA— 20051202—01672)for a period coterminous with the new sixty—day STA requested here, and Lockheed Martin urges the Commission to take that course of action. For all ofthe foregoing reasons, Lockheed Martin respectfully requestsan STA permiting it to operate the newly— proposed uplink frequency on Brewster, Washington carth station, as now amended, with the RPS—2 space station at 107.3° W.L. for a period ofup tosixty (60) days prior to grant of ts pending application, as amended, for permanent authorty.See 47 CFR. § 25.120(b)G). Lockheed Martin requests that tauthorit it seeks herein be granted effective February 1, 2006. Lockheed Martin also requests the Commission to renew its current STA for the originally—proposed Brewster, Washington facility — which authority expires on February 15, 2005 — and make the renewal term coterminous with the newly—requested sixty—day sta.
