File No. SES-LIC-20081125-01517
Dear Mr. Rodriguez:
On November 25, 2008, Hispanic Information and Telecommunications Network, Inc. (Hispanic) 
filed an application for a license to operate a new transmit and receive earth station CSAT1
system in Brooklyn, NY. For the reasons discussed below, we dismiss the application as 
defective, without prejudice to refiling.
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.  
Hispanic’s application does not comply with the Commission’s rules, which renders it 
unacceptable and subject to dismissal.
In response to item E21 of Schedule B, Hispanic lists ALSAT-designated satellites as the points 
of communication for each of its remote locations.  Pursuant to Section 25.115(c)(2)(i)(A) of the 
Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.115(c)(2)(i)(A), the lead application for a CSAT system must 
identify no more than three discrete geostationary satellites to be accessed.  Additionally, in 
response to items E43 and E44 of Schedule B, Hispanic lists the frequency bands as 3700-3702 
MHz (Receive) and 5895-5926 MHz (Transmit) for each of its remote locations.  Pursuant to 
Section 25.115(c)(2)(i)(B) of the Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.115(c)(2)(i)(B), the lead 
application for a CSAT system must identify the amount of frequency bandwidth sought, up to a 
maximum of 20 megahertz of spectrum in each direction for each satellite.  The bandwidth 
requested in response to items E43 and E44 of Schedule B exceed this limitation.

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 Hispanic’s application without prejudice to refiling.2 In other words, 
Hispanic is free to revise its application to request authority to communicate with no more than 
three satellites in no more than 20 megahertz of spectrum for each satellite.
Sincerely,
Scott A. Kotler
Chief, Systems Analysis Branch
Satellite Division

2 If Hispanic 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).
