Re:       Request for Further Extension of Special Temporary Authority
         Filmore, CA C—band Earth Station KA391

Dear Ms. Dortch:


Intelsat License LLC ("Intelsat") herein requests an additional 30 days of Special Temporary Authority
("STA")‘ previously granted Intelsat to continue using its Fillmore, California C—band earth station—
call sign KA391—to provide telemetry, tracking, and command ("TT&C") services" to Intelsat 805 at its
permanent location of 169.0° E.L." Intelsat plans shortly to permanently modify its KA391 license to
support Intelsat 805 TT&C services at 169.0° E.L.

The Intelsat 805 TT&C operations will continue to be performed at the following frequencies: 6173.7
MHz and 6176.3 MHz (CP) in the uplink, and 3947.5 MHz, 3948.0 MHz, 3952.0 MHz, and 3952.5
MHz (RHCP) in the downlink.

Intelsat will provide technical information demonstrating that the operation of the earth station will be
compatable with its electromagnetic environment and will not cause harmful interference into any
lawfully operating terrestrial facility as part of its application to permanently modify its KA391 license
to include Intelsat 805 as an authorized point of communication. In the extremely unlikely event that
harmful interference should occur due to transmissions to or from its earth station, Intelsat will take all
reasonable steps to eliminate the interference.

Grant of this STA further extension request will continue to allow Intelsat to safely station—keep the
satellite at 169.0° E.L. orbital location and thereby promotes the public interest.




‘ Intelsat has filed its STA request, FCC Form 159, a $200.00 filing fee, and this supporting letter electronically
