Dear Mr. Wiltshire:
On December 24, 2008, DIRECTV Enterprise, LLC (DIRECTV) filed the above-captioned 
applications for a license to operate two direct broadcast satellite1 (DBS) earth stations.  For 
reason discussed below, we dismiss the applications 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, that 
contains internal inconsistencies, or that does not substantially comply with the Commission's 
rules.  DIRECTV did not submit the Frequency Coordination and Interference Analysis Report as 
required by Section 25.203(c) of the Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. §25.203(c).  Therefore, the 
application is incomplete and subject to dismissal.
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 DIRECTV’s applications without prejudice to refiling.
Sincerely,
Scott A. Kotler
Chief, Systems Analysis Branch
Satellite Division
International Bureau
  
1 These earth stations operate in the 12.2-12.7 GHz and 17.3-17.8 GHz frequencies.
2 If DIRECTV refiles an application in which the deficiency identified in this letter has been corrected but 
otherwise identical to the one dismissed, it need not pay an application fee.  See 47 C.F.R.§ 1.1109(d).
