EXHIBIT 1 REQUEST FOR SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORITY DIRECTV Enterprises, LLC (“DIRECTV”) respectfully requests a grant of special temporary authority (“STA”) for 60 days commencing on or before October 16, 2019 to add new emission designators for telemetry, tracking, and control (“TT&C”) at its Castle Rock, Colorado earth station (Call Sign E010130) prior to grant of its pending modification application.1 On October 10, 2019, DIRECTV filed a modification application to add two new emission designators for TT&C to each of the earth station’s two 11.3 meter Ku-DBS band antennas.2 The pending modification application contains complete technical details regarding the proposed TT&C emission designators, which are incorporated by reference here. The earth station will communicate with DIRECTV’s T9S satellite (Call Sign S2669) at the nominal 101⁰ W.L. orbital location. Grant of special temporary authority will serve the public interest by ensuring safe flight operations through the provision of TT&C services to DIRECTV satellites during their on-orbit operation. DIRECTV understands that all operations pursuant to a grant of special temporary authority will be on a non-interference basis. DIRECTV does not anticipate that addition of the TT&C emission designators to the earth station’s two Ku-DBS band antennas will cause any harmful interference or adversely affect any other authorized users. DIRECTV further understands that any grant of special temporary authority will be without prejudice to action on the underlying pending modification application. 1 See Modification of Call Sign E010130 to Add TT&C Emission Designators, SES-MOD-INTR2019-03545 (filed Oct. 10, 2019). 2 See id.
