Sec.  25.225   Geographic Service Requirements for 17/24 GHz Broadcasting Satellite
Service.

   (a) Each operator of a 17/24 GHz BSS space station that is used to provide
   video programming directly to consumers in the 48 contiguous United States
   (CONUS) must provide comparable service to Alaska and Hawaii, unless such
   service is not technically feasible or not economically reasonable from the
   authorized orbital location.

   (b) Each operator of a 17/24 GHz BSS space station subject to paragraph (a)
   of this section must design and configure its space station to be capable of
   providing service to Alaska and Hawaii, that is comparable to the service
   that such satellites will provide to CONUS subscribers, from any orbital
   location capable of providing service to either Alaska or Hawaii to which it
   may be located or relocated in the future.

   (c) If an operator of a 17/24 GHz BSS space station that is used to provide
   video programming directly to consumers in the United States relocates or
   replaces a 17/24 GHz BSS space station at a location from which service to
   Alaska and Hawaii had been provided by another 17/24 GHz BSS space station,
   the operator must use a space station capable of providing at least the same
   level of service to Alaska and Hawaii as previously provided from that
   location.
