  • and Appendix C1- ``Technical Evaluation of 2 GHz MSS ATC Proposals'' of the Report and Order in this proceeding, FCC 03-15 (rel. Feb 10, 2003). CorrEction to Section III(C) of the Report and Order In the last sentence of paragraph 85 of the Report and Order, the word "perquisite" is replaced with the word "prerequisite". In footnote 195, the text ``25.147(a)(6)'' is corrected to read ``25.149(a)(6)'' in each instance. CorrEction to Section III(D) of the Report and Order The second reference to ``1559-1610'' in the first sentence of paragraph 125 of the Report and Order is corrected to read ``1559-1605''. In footnote 273, the text ``25.147'' is corrected to read ``25.149''. In paragraph 225 in the forth sentence, the text "offer

  • because of the importance of Public Safety operations in this band to critical safety-of-life communications, we find that it is necessary to take special precautions to protect existing facilities. Therefore, in the unlikely event that harmful interference does occur, NGSO MSS satellite licensee(s) will be obligated to remedy any Public Safety interference complaint. We are codifying this requirement at Section 25.147. Coordination Because of the nature of feeder link operations, we do not believe that very many gateways will be needed (indeed, only three have currently been constructed in the United States) and that this limited number of large, receive earth stations at fixed locations can be successfully coordinated. Further, because of their co-primary status, gateway reception in the band 6700-7025

  • and build-out. MSS licensees engaging in pre-operational build-out and testing must also comply with sections 5.83, 5.85(c), 5.111 and 5.117 relating to experimental operations. An MSS licensee may not offer ATC service to the public for compensation during pre-operational testing. In order to operate any ATC base stations, such a licensee must meet all the requirements set forth in § 25.147 and must have been granted ATC authority. (h) Aircraft. All portable or hand-held transceiver units (including transceiver units installed in other devices that are themselves portable or hand-held) having operating capabilities in the 1626.5-1660.5 MHz and 1525-1559 MHz bands shall bear the following statement in a conspicuous location on the device: ``This device may not be operated while on board

  • 47 C.F.R. §§ 80.203(g), 80.1103(a), 87.145, and 87.147. Flexibility for Delivery of Communications by Mobile Satellite Service Providers in the 2 GHz Band, the L-Band, and the 1.6/2.4 GHz Bands (Report and Order and Notice of Proposed Rulemaking), FCC 03-15, 18 FCC Rcd 1962 (2003). Id. at ¶248. Id. Accordingly, the Commission adopted a new rule provision, 47 C.F.R. § 25.147(c), stating that ``[e]ach ATC MET utilized for operation ... [or] marketed ... must be of a type that has been authorized by the Commission under its certification procedure ....'' 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

  • areas that they were previously unable to serve, such as the interiors of buildings and high-traffic density urban areas. We will not permit MSS/ATC operators to offer ATC-only subscriptions, because ATC systems would then be terrestrial mobile systems separate from their MSS systems. We therefore clarify that ``integrated service'' as used in this proceeding and required by 47 C.F.R. § 25.147(b)(4) forbids MSS/ATC operators from offering ATC-only subscriptions. Band-Specific Gating Criteria We clarify that any MSS operator wishing to incorporate an ATC component into its system must meet the gating criteria for each spectrum band in which it wishes to provide ATC. We agree with Cingular and CTIA that we did not make this requirement explicit in the rules. Accordingly, we
