12. Description. Applicant seeks a 30-day extension, until March 15, 2011, of the authority granted in File No. SES-STA-20110107-00024, permitting higher power operations in the 12750-12752 MHz band for TT&C. As explained in more detail in that application, which is incorporated herein by reference, this frequency band is used as a back-up band for ranging and command transmissions, and higher power is necessary to ensure that the earth station can maintain the link with the satellite under degraded conditions, such as in the event of rain. LightSquared intends to file a modification of license application shortly, seeking regular authority for the temporary authority requested in this filing.

13. By checking Yes, the undersigned certifies that neither applicant nor any other party to the application is subject to a denial of Federal benefits that includes FCC benefits pursuant to Section 5301 of the Anti-Drug Act of 1988, 21 U.S.C. Section 862, because of a conviction for possession or distribution of a controlled substance. See 47 CFR 1.2002(b) for the meaning of "party to the application" for these purposes.
