 Nature  of  Service:  Direct  to  Home  Fixed  Satellite,  Fixed  Satellite  Service 
 On  August  15,  2005,  the  Satellite  Division  granted  with  conditions  EchoStar  Satellite  L.  L.  C..  's  application, 
 SAT-  MOD-  20050617-  00127,  to  modify  its  existing  authorization  (SAT-  LOA-  20031215-  00355  (DA  04-  3164)  as  modified  by 
 SAT-  MOD-  20041102-  00206)  to  include  authority  to  operate  in  the  18.3-  18.8  GHz  (space-  to-  Earth),  28.35-  28.6  GHz 
 (Earth-  to-  space),  and  29.25-  29.5  GHz  (Earth-  to-  space)  frequency  bands.  The  conditions  contained  in  its  existing  authorization 
 otherwise  remain  unaffected.  Accordingly  Echostar  Satellite  L.  L.  C.  is  authorized  to  launch  and  operate  its  Echostar-  121W-  KuX

 SURRENDER 
 S2241  SAT-  LOA-  19970228-  00021  SkyBridge  L.  L.  C. 


 On  August  17,  2005,  SkyBridge  L.  L.  C.,  surrendered  its  license  to  construct,  launch,  and  operate  a  non-  geostationary  orbit  (NGSO) 
 fixed  satellite  service  (FSS)  system  in  the  Ku-  band.  See  Letter  from  Gerad  Dosogne,  President  and  CEO  of  SkyBridge,  to 
 Chairman  Kevin  Martin,  Federal  Communications  Commission  (dated  August  17,  2005).  Under  the  avoidance  of  in-  line 
 interference  events  sharing  protocol  for  the  Ku-  band  NGSO  FSS,  a  number  of  licensees  could  potentially  share  the  available 
 spectrum.  Accordingly,  the  NGSO  FSS  Ku-  band  has  been,  and  remains,  open  to  applications  that  will  be  processed  under  the 
 Commission’s  first-  come,  first-  served  processes.  See  Establishment  of  Policies  and  Service  Rules  for  the  Non-  Geostationary 
 Satellite  Orbit,  Fixed  Satellite  Service  in  the  Ku-  Band,  Report  and  Order,  17  FCC  Rcd  7841,  7844  ¶  8  (2002);  Establishment  of 
 Policies  and  Service  Rules  for  the  Non-  Geostationary  Satellite  Orbit,  Fixed  Satellite  Service  in  the  Ku-  Band,  Notice  of  Proposed 
 Rulemaking,  16  FCC  Rcd  9680,  9685  ¶16  (2001).
