  • notification requirement because secondary payload launch commitments, which amateur-satellite service space stations invariably fly as, rarely become available twenty-seven months or more in advance. Petitioner also states that the present notification requirements are an unnecessary burden both for amateur service licensees and the Commission because they result in the Commission receiving a request to waive all or part of Section 97.207(g) every time an amateur-satellite service space station is launched. In order to continue notification to others in case harmful interference occurs, however, AMSAT states that a more practical procedure would be to require the filing of pre-space station notification information within thirty days after obtaining a launch commitment. Finally. AMSAT asserts that amateur service licensees can file additional information if

  • Orbital Debris, Second Report and Order, 19 FCC Rcd 11567 (2004) (``Second Report and Order''). See 47 C.F.R. § 25.114(d)(14). An applicant for an experimental license under Part 5 and a license grantee of an amateur space station under Part 97 must disclose orbital debris mitigation plans for the space station as part of the requirements of Sections 5.63(e) and 97.207(g) that were adopted by the Commission in the Second Report and Order. See 47 C.F.R. §§ 5.63(3) and 97.207(g). See Second Report and Order, 19 FCC Rcd at 11577 (para. 20); see also Erratum, DA 04-2613 (rel. Aug. 24, 2004). The Commission's rules do not require amendment of pending filings for space stations in the experimental or amateur services. The

We note that amateur stations transmitting a video signal to a repeater station typically use much higher power than the Recon Scout and may use high gain, directional antennas.

Other equivalent procedures may be approved in the course of the licensing process. Proposed Rule Change to 47 C.F.R. Part 97 : 1. Section 97.207 is proposed to be amended by modifying paragraph (g) as follows: § 97.207 Space station ***** (g) The license grantee of each space station must make two written pre-space station notifications to the International Bureau, FCC, Washington DC 20554. Each notification must be in accord with the provisions of Articles S9 and S11 of the ITU Radio Regulations. (1) The

As a result, the Notice proposed to amend Parts 5 and 97 to require amateur and experimental space station licensees to submit the same disclosure regarding orbital debris mitigation plans as that submitted by operators subject to Part 25. Specifically, the Orbital Debris Notice proposed to amend the texts of Sections 5.63 and 97.207(g) of the Commission's rules to require experimental and amateur satellite licensees to submit a description of the design and operational strategies that will be used to mitigate orbital debris - including a casualty risk assessment if planned post-mission disposal involves atmospheric re-entry of a spacecraft - and to demonstrate that debris generation will not result from the conversion of energy

Our Rules also require that the space station licensee file notifications no later than seven days after the space station initiates transmissions, and no later than three months after termination of transmissions through the space station. In the NPRM, the Commission sought comment on whether it should amend Section 97.207 of our Rules to simplify the notification requirements. Specifically, the Commission sought comment as to whether it should require that pre-space notification be submitted within thirty days after the launch vehicle is determined, but no later than ninety days before the space station is integrated into the launch vehicle, and whether it should consolidate the notification requirements contained in Section

In addition, we move transmitter power limit information from Section 97.303(s) to Section 97.313, Transmitter power standards. Finally, we amend Section 97.103(c) to delete the cross-reference to Section 0.314(x), which was removed in 1999; and we remove the entry ``1260-1270 MHz'' from Section 97.207(c), which lists the frequency bands authorized to amateur space stations, because footnote 5.282 to the Table limits the use of that segment to earth station transmissions. Conclusion In summary, we believe that the public interest will be served by revising the amateur service rules to eliminate the APC requirement now applicable to stations transmitting SS emission types.

[74]Section 97.201 accommodates auxiliary stations, [75]Section 97.205 accommodates repeater stations and [76]Section 97.207 accommodates space stations. Q: May my station retransmit the programs or signals emanating from any other type of radio station? [77]Section 97.113 provides two exceptions for retransmissions that are for the exclusive use of amateur operators.
