The C-band is also shared with the Fixed Service on a co-primary basis. Onsat Petition at 10-13. Onsat's petition included two requests. In addition to its petition for waiver, Onsat also petitioned for a declaratory ruling that section 25.115 of the Commission's rules permits blanket-licensing of 3.7-meter antennas in the C-band. Onsat Petition at 9-10. In response to the petition for declaratory ruling, the Commission initiated a rulemaking to consider blanket licensing in the C-band.

DIRECTV also seeks waiver of the coordination requirements in Section 25.203. The Satellite Division placed the amended applications on Public Notice on February 27, 2008. No comments or oppositions were filed. III. DISCUSSION A. Ka-Band Testing Sections 25.115(e) and 25.138(d) of the Commission's rules require Ka-band earth station applicants to provide with their applications a series of radiation patterns measured on a production antenna operating on a calibrated antenna range. According to DIRECTV, these radiation pattern tests are better suited to small, mass-produced antennas than to the larger earth stations that DIRECTV proposes to deploy. DIRECTV states that

The Commission said in ¶248 of the ATC Report and Order that it was also revising 47 C.F.R. § 25.115(d) to make it clear that mobile earth-station terminals for systems with ATC must be certificated, but that intention is not reflected in the appendix setting forth the adopted rule changes.

We believe that if Ku-band ESV operators agree to operate under the same technical requirements as those imposed on VSAT blanket licensees, the requirements that are designed to minimize interference concerns to adjacent satellites would be sufficient to support Ku-band ESV licensees under the same blanket licensing process. Therefore, we propose to amend Sections 25.115 and 25.134 of our rules to permit blanket licensing of ESV operations in the 14.0-14.5 GHz portion of the Ku-band on the same basis as Ku-band VSAT systems. We seek comment on this approach. Specifically, we propose to add a new subsection 25.115(c)(3) to include Ku-band ESV networks within the current blanket licensing process.
