                           £080130, SES—LIC—20080529—00688

   Dear Ms. Dortch:

          This letter requesting "grant stamp" special temporary authority ("STA") is submitted
   pursuant to Section 25.120 of the Commission‘s Rules on behalf of Convergent Media Systems
   Corporation, applicant for 3.7 meter Ku—band satellite earth station EO80130, Albuquerque, New
   Mexico. The underlying application was submitted May 29, 2008, with the above—referenced file
   number.

          Applicant requests an STA to test the earth station prior to grant during the time that the
   construction crew is available, namely starting the week of June 23, 2008. Applicant requests
   an STA for a period of 180 days or until the application for E080130 is granted.

          The proposed earth station will operate on Ku—band frequencies so frequency
   coordination issues are not implicated. The earth station will be 3.7 meters in diameter so no
   FAA notification is required. Applicant will operate the earth station in accordance with
   standard STA conditions‘ and acknowledges:

                   (a)      that harmful interference shall not be caused to any other lawfully
                            operated station, and operator shall cease immediately upon notification of
                            interference; complaints of radio interference shall be forwarded
                            immediately to the Commission in writing;

                   (b)      that the requested authorization is subject to change in any of its terms or
                            to cancellation in its entirety at any time upon reasonable notice, but

                            without hearing, if in the opinion of the Commission, cireumstances
                            should so warrant;

                  (c)       operation of the earth station is limited to standard Ku—band frequencies;

                  (d)       all antenna structures shall be marked and lighted in accordance with FCC
                            and FAA requirements, if necessary;

                  (e)       the grant of temporary authorization for domestic earth stations is not to be
                            construed in any way as approval for the regular use of those earth station
                            facilities for domestic satellite communications;

                  8         should the underlying application for regular authority be dismissed or
                            denied, this temporary authority will automatically expire.

           FCC Form 159, the applicable filing fee, and anti—drug certification are attached.

           Please contact the undersigned if you have any questions.

                                                       Sincerely,
