 Petition  for  Declaratory  Ruling  to  be  Added  to  the  Permitted  List 
 05/  16/  2006  17:  16:  00:  30600  Date  Filed: 
 Telesat  Canada 


 Telesat  Canada  (Telesat)  has  filed  a  petition  for  a  declaratory  ruling  to  add  the  C-  and  Ku-  band  payloads  on  the  Anik  F3  satellite,  which 
 is  licensed  by  Canada,  to  be  located  at  the  118.7°  W.  L.,  orbital  location  to  the  Commission's  Permitted  Space  Station  List  (Permitted 
 List).  In  its  petition,  Telesat  requests  a  waiver  of  the  requirement  in  Section  25.210(  a)(  3)  of  the  Commission’s  rules  that  4/  6  GHz 
 band  space  stations  shall  be  capable  of  switching  polarization  sense  upon  ground  command.  Telesat  also  requests  a  wavier  of  the 
 requirement  in  Section  25.210(  i)  of  the  Commission’s  rules  that  space  station  antennas  in  the  Fixed-  Satellite  Service  must  be  designed 
 to  provide  a  cross-  polarization  isolation  such  that  the  ratio  of  the  on  axis  co-  polar  gain  to  the  cross-  polar  gain  of  the  antenna  in  the 
 assigned  frequency  band  shall  be  at  least  30  dB  within  its  primary  coverage  area.  Finally,  Telesat  seeks  a  reduction  or  waiver  of  the 
 requirement  of  section  25.137(  d)(  4)  of  the  Commission's  rules  that  non-  U.  S.  licensed  satellites  that  are  not  in  orbit  and  operating  must 
 post  a  bond.
