Reqursror Sreciat Texrorary Autnoriy Call Sign: 2930304 DIRECTV Enterprises, LLC (*DIRECTV") hereby requests Special Temporary Authority (*STA") for up to 30 days to conduct telemetry, racking and control ("TT&C‘) operations on behalf of Telesat Canada (*Telesat") with the DIRECTV 1 satelite during its drif from the 72.7° W.L. orbital location to the nominal 91° W.L. posiion DIRECTV currenty is using DIRECTV 1 to provide DBS service in the United States from the Canadian—contolled orbital location at 72.5° W.L.. DIRECTV has filed applications necessary to swap DIRECTV 1R for DIRECTV 1 upon it arival at 72.5" W.L, sthat DIRECTV 1 will be fe to eplace DIRECTV 2 and continue providing service into Canada from another Canadian orbital location." Once t has received proper authorization, DIRECTV will relocate DIRECTV 1R to 72.5° W.L.. Telesat, which is operating DIRECTV 1, will move that sateliteto 72.7° W.L. temporarily while communications trafic is transferzed. At that point, the satellte can be moved without disruption to any subscriber services. Telesat will then tum offthe communications payload on DIRECTV 1 foris relocation to 91" W.L., and will operate only the TT&C payload on that satelie using the following frequencies: Uplink: 17303 and 17797 MHz Downlinks 12200.5 and 12201.75 MHz DIRECTV has already sought an STA to cover the migration of the DIRECTV 1 space station. Grant othis STA request will serve the publi interest by allowing DIRECTV to supportthe mansuvers necessary to complete the fnal stages ofa transaction with Telesat that will both bolster the Canadian DBS constellation and extend DIRECTV‘s rights to provide service into the U.S. from the 72.5° W.L. position. In addition, grant ofthis STA request will not resultin 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 drft of DIRECTV 1. Moreover, DIRECTV will coordinate with potentially affected satellte operators in accordance with industry practice and wl operate on a non—interference basis Accordingly, DIRECTV respectfully requests that the Commission grantthis STA. request as expeditiously as possible !— See, eg, FCC File No. SAT—STA—20061213—00149. See FCC File No. SAT—STA—20070126—00019.
