 For  more  information  concerning  this  Notice,  contact  the  Satellite  Division  at  202-  418-  0719;  TTY  202-  418-  2555. 
 On  November  7,  2006,  Sirius  Satellite  Radio  Inc.  (Sirius)  requested  special  temporary  authority  (STA)  to  operate  one  terrestrial 
 repeater,  for  a  period  of  180  days,  in  Las  Vegas,  Nevada,  at  the  location  and  with  the  technical  parameters  specified  in  its  application. 
 Sirius  states  that  it  was  previously  granted  STA  to  operate  this  repeater  in  Las  Vegas,  but  that  the  repeater  must  be  relocated  due  to  the 
 imminent  demolition  of  the  structure  upon  which  it  is  currently  located.  Sirius  states  that  this  repeater  is  needed  to  fill  in  gaps  in 
 service  of  its  satellite-  based  system.  This  proceeding  has  been  designated  as  "permit-  but-  disclose"  under  the  Commission's  rules 
 governing  ex  parte  communications.  See  Public  Notice,  Actions  Taken  (Report  No.  SAT-  00403,  released  November  17,  2006).

 Sirius  Satellite  Radio  Inc. 


 On  November  7,  2006,  Sirius  Satellite  Radio  Inc.  (Sirius)  requested  special  temporary  authority  (STA),  for  a  period  of  180  days,  to 
 operate  repeaters  with  power  levels  of  200  watts  equivalent  isotropically  radiated  power  (EIRP)  and  0.0001  watts  EIRP  at  trade  shows 
 in  various  cities,  beginning  as  early  as  December  31,  2006,  and  running  through  June  29,  2007,  as  set  forth  in  Exhibit  A  to  the  request. 
 Sirius  states  that  the  repeaters  will  be  used  for  demonstrations  at  trade  shows  for  periods  of  4  -16  days  at  a  time.  Sirius  states  the 
 repeaters  are  necessary  to  provide  quality  reception  inside  trade  show  venues,  due  to  signal  blockage  from  walls  and  ceilings.  This 
 proceeding  has  been  designated  as  "permit-  but-  disclose"  under  the  Commission's  rules  governing  ex  parte  communications.  See  Public 
 Notice,  Actions  Taken  (Report  No.  SAT-  00403,  released  November  17,  2006).
