   File No. SES-LIC-20070813-01096
Dear Mr. Chastain:
On August 13, 2007, Talking Rock Communications, Inc. filed the above-captioned application 
for authority to operate a Temporary-Fixed C-Band1 Transmit/Receive Earth Station. For the
reasons discussed below, we dismiss the application as defective, without prejudice to refiling.2
Section 25.112 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.112, requires the Commission to return, 
as unacceptable for filing, any earth station application that is not substantially complete, contains 
internal inconsistencies, or does not substantially comply with the Commission's rules.  Talking 
Rock Communications, Inc.’s application does not comply with the Commission's rules,
rendering it unacceptable and subject to dismissal.  The deficiency is as follows:
Question 28 of Form 312 indicates that a radiation hazard study must accompany all applications 
as an exhibit for new transmitting facilities such as the one proposed.3 However, Talking Rock 
Communications, Inc.’s application did not include this required exhibit.  
  
1 3700-4200 and 5925-6425 MHz bands.
2 If Talking Rock Communications, Inc. refiles an application in which the deficiencies identified in this 
letter have been corrected but otherwise identical to the one dismissed, it need not pay an application fee.  
See 47 C.F.R.§ 1.1109(d).
3  See 47 C.F.R. § 1.1307(b).
 Federal Communications Commission                  DA 07-3823

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 Talking Rock Communications, Inc.’s application without prejudice to 
refiling.
 
  Sincerely,
