 Re:  Call  Sign:  E060105  File  No.:  SES-  REG-  20060331-  00552 
 Dear  Mr.  Becci: 
 On  March  31,  2006,  NTELOS  Media,  Inc.  (NTELOS)  filed  the  above-  captioned  application  to  register  a  Receive-  Only  Fixed-  Satellite  Service  (FSS)  earth  station  proposing  to  communicate 
 with  ALSAT-  designated  satellites  in  the  C-  band.  1  Pursuant  to  Section  25.112(  a)(  1)  of  the  Commission’s  rules,  47  C.  F.  R.  §25.112(  a)(  1),  we  dismiss  the  application  as  defective,  without 
 prejudice  to  refiling. 
 A  review  of  the  application  reveals  that  the  Frequency  Coordination  and  Interference  Analysis  Report,  as  submitted,  does  not  fulfill  the  requirement(  s)  of  Section  25.203(  c)  of  the  Commission’s 
 rules,  47  C.  F.  R.  §25.203(  c),  because  the  report  does  not  demonstrate  that  the  earth  station  was  coordinated  with  existing  terrestrial  users  and  with  previously-  filed  applications  for  terrestrial 
 stations.  Therefore,  the  application  is  incomplete. 
 While  we  dismiss  the  application  on  the  above  basis,  we  take  the  opportunity  to  apprise  you  of  other  concerns  we  have  should  NTELOS  choose  to  re-  file  the  application.  In  Schedule  B  of  FCC 
 Form  312,  we  calculate  that  the  Earth  Station  Azimuth  Angle  Eastern  Limit  (Question  E56)  should  be  141.9  o  rather  than  162  o  ,  the  Antenna  Elevation  Angle  Eastern  Limit  (Question  E57) 
 should  be  51.1  o  rather  than  15.69  o  ,  the  Earth  Station  Azimuth  Angle  Western  Limit  (Question  E58)  should  be  256.9  o  rather  than  250  o  ,  and  the  Antenna  Elevation  Angle  Western  Limit 
 (Question  E59)  should  be  15.3  o  rather  than  45.15  o  . 


 1  3700-  4200  MHz  band.

 C.  F.  R.  §0.261,  we  dismiss  your  application  without  prejudice  to  refiling.  2
