        COMMENTS OF MOBILE SATELLITE VENTURES SUBSIDIARY LLC


       Mobile Satellite Ventures Subsidiary LLC (“MSV”) hereby files these Comments on the

above-referenced applications filed by SkyWave Mobile Communications, Inc. (“SkyWave”),

Stratos Communications, Inc. (“Stratos”), and Vizada Satellite, Inc. (“Vizada”) for another 60-

day renewal of existing grants of Special Temporary Authority (“STA”) to operate earlier-

generation mobile earth terminals (“METs”) using the uncoordinated Inmarsat 4F2 satellite at

52.75’ W.L. For the reasons discussed in the Comments filed on January 3,2007 in response to

a request for a new STA to operate earlier-generation METs with the uncoordinated Inmarsat


4F2 satellite,' MSV urges the Bureau to continue to apply the conditioximposed on the original

STA grants for earlier-generation services as well as to (i) immediately require Inmarsat to return

the loaned frequencies and (ii) establish a firm expiration date for these STAs without Inmarsat

having completed coordination of the Inmarsat 4F2 satellite with the United States.

                                     Respectfully submitted,
