Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 August 1, 2014 DA 14-1121 Mr. Chris Mavros Christian Television Corp., Inc. 6922 142nd Ave. Largo, FL 33771 cmavros@ctntv.net Call Sign: E130217 File No.: SES-LIC-20131024-00899 Dear Mr. Mavros: On October 24, 2013, Christian Television Corporation, Inc. (Christian Television) filed the above-captioned application for a transmit-receive earth station that would operate with ALSAT-designated satellites on a center frequency of 6149 MHz. For the reasons indicated below, we dismiss the application as defective, without prejudice to re-filing.1 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. Christian Television’s application is inconsistent, incomplete, and does not substantially comply with the Commission’s rules for the following reasons. · Christian Television did not submit a radiation hazard study, as required by the underlined text included in item 28 of Form 312 and Section 1.1307(b) of the Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 1.1307(b). · Christian Television 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). · Christian Television provided a total EIRP for all carriers of 61.9 dBW in item E40 of the Schedule B; however, this value is inconsistent with our calculated EIRP of 57.94 dBW that is based on the technical information provided in item E41 and item E38 (10 Log (16 W) + 45.9 dBi = 57.94 dBW). · Christian Television listed the maximum EIRP density per carrier per 4kHz in item E49 of the Schedule B as 61.9 dBW; this value is inconsistent with item E48, 16 dBW maximum EIRP per Carrier, and item E47, a 3M70G1F emission designator. While not grounds for dismissal we note that Christian Television indicated in item 26 of the FCC 312 Main Form that the type of earth station facility is Transmit/Receive; however, it listed only the transmit frequency in item E43/44 of the Schedule B. If the antenna is used to 1 If Christian Television re-files an application in which the deficiencies identified in this letter have been corrected, but is otherwise identical to the one dismissed, it need not pay an application fee. See 47 C.F.R. § 1.1111(d). Federal Communications Commission DA 14-1121 2 both transmit and receive, Christian Television must indicate the frequencies used for reception in any re-filed application. 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 Christian Television’s application without prejudice to re-filing. Sincerely, Paul E. Blais Chief, Systems Analysis Branch Satellite Division International Bureau
