 File No. SES-MOD-20080407-00429
Dear Mr. Reed:
On April 7, 2008, WPXI, Inc. (WPXI) filed the above-captioned modification application to 
modify its transmit-only temporary-fixed Ku-band1 earth station license to replace an antenna and 
modify emission parameters.   For the reason 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.  
WPXI’s application is incomplete, which renders it unacceptable and subject to dismissal.  The 
deficiency is as follows:
Question 28 of Form 312 indicates that a radiation hazard study must accompany as an exhibit all 
applications seeking major modifications such as the one proposed.2 However, WPXI’s 
application did not include this required exhibit.
  
1 14.0-14.5 GHz.
2  See 47 C.F.R. § 1.1307(b).
Federal Communications Commission                  DA 08-943

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 WPXI’s application, without prejudice to refiling.3
Sincerely,
Scott A. Kotler

3 If WPXI refiles an application in which the deficiency identified in this letter has been corrected but is 
otherwise identical to the one dismissed, it need not pay an application fee.  See 47 C.F.R. § 1.1109(d).
