 Dear  Mr.  Kozlowski: 
 On  April  7,  2005,  Globalstar  USA,  LLC  (“  Globalstar”)  filed  the  above-  captioned  applications  to  seek  earth  station  feeder  link  authority  for  its  Big  LEO  Mobile  Satellite 
 Service  (MSS)  system  in  Sebring,  Florida.  Globalstar  requested  consolidated  treatment  of  these  applications.  Pursuant  to  Section  25.112(  a)(  1)  of  the  Commission’s  rules,  47 
 C.  F.  R.  §25.112(  a)(  1),  we  dismiss  all  four  applications  as  defective,  without  prejudice  to  refiling,  because  of  internal  inconsistencies  provided  within  each  application. 


 Under  Section  2.202(  g)  of  the  Commission’s  Rules,  1  the  emission  designator  for  an  “unmodulated  CW”  emission  that  you  listed  in  all  four  applications  in  Item  E50  of  Form 
 312,  Schedule  B  should  be  “N0N”  for  Item  E47.  Since  such  an  emission  has  no  bandwidth,  the  50  kHz  bandwidth  in  the  emission  designator  “50K0N0N”  (Item  E47) 
 listed  in  all  four  applications  is  inconsistent  with  an  unmodulated  emission. 
 We  also  take  this  opportunity  to  apprise  Globalstar  of  other  concerns  we  have  that  Globalstar  should  correct  if  it  chooses  to  refile  these  applications.  We  note  that  the 
 applications  list  PERMITTED  LIST  as  the  Points  of  Communication.  Since  satellites  in  the  PERMITTED  LIST  use  only  the  conventional  C-  Band  2  or  conventional  Ku-  Band,  3

 Globalstar  should  replace  PERMITTED  LIST  with  the  appropriate  Point  of  Communication  to  avoid  internal  inconsistencies. 
 In  addition,  although  we  are  not  dismissing  these  applications  on  this  basis,  we  are  unclear  how  the  59  dBW/  4  kHz  (Item  E49)  Maximum  EIRP  Density  per  Carrier  is 
 derived  for  the  emission  associated  with  designator  “50K0N0N”  and  we  ask  that  this  be  demonstrated  in  your  refiling.  Alternatively,  if  the  emission  employs  a  technique  such  as 
 Amplitude  Shift  Keying  (ASK),  Frequency  Shift  Keying  (FSK),  or  Phase  Shift  Keying  (PSK)  and  the  spectrum  is  translated  upward  in  frequency  from  the  baseband  signal,  an 
 appropriate  emission  designator  other  than  “N0N”  should  be  provided. 
 Accordingly,  pursuant  to  Section  25.112(  a)(  1)  of  the  Commission’s  rules,  47  C.  F.  R.  §25.112(  a)(  1),  and  Section  0.261  of  the  Commission’s  rules  on  delegations  of  authority, 
 47  C.  F.  R.  §0.261,  we  dismiss  your  applications  as  defective  without  prejudice  to  refiling.  4 


 Sincerely,

 4  If  Globalstar  re-  files  an  application  identical  to  the  one  dismissed,  with  the  exception  of  supplying  the 
 corrected  information,  it  need  not  pay  an  application  fee.  See  47  C.  F.  R.  Section  1.1109(  d).
