STA—20110204—00115, is granted. Accordingly, EchoStar is authorized, for a period of 30 days,
to conduct telemetry, tracking, and telecommand operations necessary to drift the EchoStar 6
space station (Call Sign $2232) from the 61.65° W.L. orbital location to the 76.95° W.L. orbital
location and to maintain it at the 76.95° W.L. orbital location. Specifically, EchoStar is
authorized to use the 17305 MHz frequency for the telecommand uplink and the 12203 and
12204 MHz frequencies for the telemetry and beacon downlinks during these operations. This
authorization shall be in accordance with the technical specifications set forth in EchoStar‘s
application, the Commission‘s rules, and is subject to the following conditions:


     1)      EchoStar shall coordinate all drift orbit telemetry, tracking, and telecommand
             operations with other potentially affected in—orbit operators.

     2)      EchoStar shall notify DIRECTV of its use of the 17305 MHz telecommand frequency
             during the drift of EchoStar 6. EchoStar shall confirm this notification to the Commission
             via a supplement to its application filed electronically in IBFS no later than February 7,
             2011, and send copies of the supplement by email to Mark Young and Paul Blais of the
             Commission‘s staff, mark.young@fee.gov and paul.blais@fcec.gov .

     3)      All operations shall be on an unprotected and non—harmful interference basis, i. e.
             EchoStar shall not cause harmful interference to, and shall not claim protection
             from interference caused to it by, any other lawfully operating radiocommunication
             station.

     4)      In the event that any harmful interference is caused as a result of operations of the
             EchoStar 6 satellite, EchoStar shall cease operations immediately upon notification
             of such an event, and shall inform the Commission immediately, in writing, of the
             event.

     5)      Any action taken or expense incurred as a result of operations pursuant to this
             special temporary authority is solely at EchoStar‘s own risk.

     6)      This action is issued pursuant to Section 0.261 of the Commission‘s rules on
             delegated authority, 47 C.F.R. § 0.261, and is effective immediately.
