             Re:        Request for Extension of Special Temporéry Authority
                        46 cm Ku—band Earth Station
                        Hagerstown, Maryland

 Dear Ms. Dortch:

  Intelsat LLC ("Intelsat") herein requests a 30—day extension — through
‘ November 19, 2009 — of the Special Temporary Authority‘ previously granted
  Intelsat to utilize a 46 cm Ku—band earth station to conduct testing as described
  below." The antenna will continue to operate in the 14022—14094 MHz and
  11722—11794 MHz frequency bands and to communicate with the Horizons 2
  satellite at 74.05° W.L.

 Grant of this STA extension request will serve the public interest by allowing
 Intelsat to continue to conduct testing that could serve to enhance the
 capabilities of communications services in support of military operations.
 Currently, aviation assets can provide limited data streams from an airborne
 asset to a satellite hub for distribution worldwide to U.S. Government
 agencies. The antenna that is the subject of this STA request represents new
 technology that would increase those data rates two to four times. Additional
 testing is needed to establish reliability figures over time.

 In support of this request, Intelsat incorporates by reference the detailed
 technical information submitted with the original STA request that
 demonstrates that the operation of the earth station will be compatible with its
 electromagnetic environment and will not cause harmful interference into any
 lawfully operating facility. In the extremely unlikely event that harmful
 interference should occur, Intelsat will take all reasonable steps to eliminate
 the interference.


 ‘ Intelsat has filed this STA request, an FCC Form 159, a $175.00 filing fee
 and this supporting letter electronically via the International Bureau‘s Filing
 System ("IBFS").
