 Dear  Mr.  Fagan: 
 On  August  3,  2005,  Telenor  Satellites,  Inc.  (TSI)  filed  the  above-  captioned  modification  application  for  authority  to  add  remote  terminals  with  new  antennas  to  the  currently  licensed  earth 
 station  referenced  above.  On  September  16,  2005,  we  informed  TSI  that  the  proposed  operation  using  the  169KG7W  emission  designator  exceeded  by  5.7  dB  the  maximum  power  density  of  the 
 satellite  operator  agreement  you  provided  as  an  attachment  to  your  application.  We  therefore  requested  that  TSI  amend  the  application  to  resolve  this  discrepancy.  TSI  filed  this  amendment 
 on  September  30,  2005.  For  the  reasons  stated  below,  we  dismiss  the  application  and  the  amendment,  as  defective  without  prejudice. 


 As  an  initial  matter,  we  note  that  in  response  to  Question  27  on  Form  312,  TSI  indicated,  designators  and  related  service.  Therefore,  we  assume  that  emissions  associated  with  the  in  the 
 September  30  th  amendment,  that  the  purpose  of  the  amendment  is  to  change  emission  169KG7W  emission  designator  in  the  August  3,  2005  application  are  no  longer  being  proposed.  We  also 
 assume  that  only  those  emissions  in  the  amendment  are  now  proposed  to  be  added  to  the  license. 
 In  your  amendment,  we  find  that  the  Maximum  EIRP  per  Carrier  which  TSI  indicates  as  49.5  dBW  (item  E48)  for  emission  designator  1M52G7W  (item  E47)  is  greater  than,  and 
 therefore  inconsistent  with,  the  Total  EIRP  for  All  Carriers  of  43  dBW  (item  E40)  for  the  0.75  meter  antenna.  We  also  find  analogous  inconsistencies  for  the  0.90  and  0.96  meter  antennas, 
 where,  respectively,  for  the  same  emission  designator,  TSI  specifies  50.6  and  51.  7  dBW  as  the  Maximum  EIRP  per  Carrier,  and  44.  1  and  45.2  dBW  as  the  Total  EIRP  for  All  Carriers.  Given 
 these  inconsistencies,  we  cannot  determine  the  proposed  emission  power. 
 Accordingly,  pursuant  to  Sections  25.112(  a)(  1)  and  0.261,  1  we  dismiss  TSI’s  modification  application,  as  amended,  as  defective,  without  prejudice  to  refiling.
