ORDER ON RECONSIDERATION
Adopted:  September 10, 2010 Released:  September 13, 2010
By the Deputy Chief, Mobility Division, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau:
1. We have before us a petition, filed by National Science and Technology Network, Inc. 
(NSTN), for reconsideration of the grant of the above-captioned application filed by Mobile Relay 
Associates (MRA).1 For the reasons set forth below, we deny the petition for reconsideration.
2. MRA was granted a license for Industrial/Business Pool Station WQGU853, Adelanto, 
California, in 2007,2 and it filed a construction notification indicating that the facilities authorized under 
that call sign were constructed in 2007.3 The licenses for MRA’s Industrial/Business Pool Stations 
WQIM482 and WQIN669, at the same location in Adelanto, were granted in 2008,4 and construction 
notifications were filed indicating that the facilities authorized under those call signs were constructed in 
2008.5 The above-captioned application to modify the license for Station WQIM482 by adding the 
frequencies that MRA already was authorized to use at that location pursuant to Call Signs WQGU853 
and WQIN669 (and canceling those licenses), and changing the station class codes and emission 
designators for the frequencies, was granted in 2009.
3. NSTN seeks reconsideration of the grant of the above-captioned application.  It suggests 
that the facilities authorized under Call Signs WQGU853 and WQIM482 were not timely constructed, so 
the authorizations should be deemed to have terminated automatically.6 NSTN provides no evidence that 
the stations were not timely constructed.  We therefore deny its petition for reconsideration.  As we stated 
in another proceeding with respect to Station WQIN669, “If NSTN believes that it has sufficient evidence 
of non-construction or permanent discontinuance of operation, it may file a separate request for license

2 See FCC File No. 0002884148.
3 See FCC File No. 0003077235.
4 See FCC File Nos. 0003027621, 0003367785.
5 See FCC File Nos. 0003366637, 0003661910.
6 See Petition at 2-3.  NSTN also appears to suggest that the above-captioned application did not comply with 
Section 90.313(c) of the Commission’s Rules, 47 C.F.R. § 90.313(c), which provides that a licensee may not add a 
470-512 MHz frequency pair unless its already-assigned frequency pairs are at full capacity.  See Petition at 2.  We 
conclude that Section 90.313(c) is irrelevant to the present matter, because the above-captioned application did not 
add any frequencies that were not already assigned to MRA at that location.

cancellation.”7
4. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to Sections 4(i) and 405 of the 
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. § 154(i), 405, and Section 1.106 of the 
Commission’s Rules, 47 C.F.R. § 1.106, the petition for reconsideration filed by National Science and 
Technology Network, Inc. on March 25, 2009 IS DENIED. 
5. This action is taken under delegated authority pursuant to Sections 0.131 and 0.331 of the 
Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 0.131, 0.331.
