File No.:    SES-LIC-20130508-00375
Dear Mr. Nelles:
On May 8, 2013, Production & Satellite Services, Inc. (Production & Satellite Services) 
filed the above-captioned license application for a temporary fixed earth station to 
communicate with ALSAT satellites in the conventional C-band frequencies of 3700-
4200 MHz (space-to-Earth) and 5925-6425 MHz (Earth-to-space) and in the Ku-band 
frequencies of 11.70-12.20 GHz (space-to-Earth) and 14.0-14.5 GHz (Earth-to-space).    
For the reasons stated below, we dismiss the application as defective without prejudice to 
re-filing.1
Section 25.112(a)(1) of the Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.112(a)(1), 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. 
The application of Production & Satellite Services contains an internal inconsistency that 
renders it unacceptable for filing.  Specifically, the EIRP density per carrier levels listed 
in item E49 in the Schedule B for emission carrier 4M00G7F in the 5925-6425 MHz and 
14.0-14.5 GHz frequency bands are inconsistent.  For the 5925-6425 MHz frequency 
band, the EIRP density per carrier is listed as 23.28 dBW/4kHz; for the 14.0-14.5 GHz 
frequency band, the EIRP density per carrier is listed as 21.67 dBW/4kHz.  Our 
calculations, based on information provided by Production & Satellite Services elsewhere 
  
1 If Production & Satellite Services re-files an application identical to the one dismissed, with the
exception of supplying the corrected information, it need not pay an application fee.  See 47 C.F.R. §
1.1111(d).

in its application,2 indicate that EIRP densities per carrier should be 32.835 dBW/4kHz 
and 31.22 dBW/4kHz, respectively.
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(a)(4) of the Commission’s rules on delegations of 
authority, 47 C.F.R. § 0.261(a)(4), we dismiss the application of Production & Satellite 
Services without prejudice to re-filing.
Sincerely,
Paul E. Blais

2 Production & Satellite Services states that the EIRP per carrier is 62.835 dBW (item 48) and the 
carrier is 4MHZ wide (item E47).  Accordingly, 62.835 minus 66 dB/4MHz [the carrier] plus 36 dB/4kHz 
[the EIRP density unit] equals a maximum EIRP density of 32.835 dBW/4kHz.
