- a similar flexible approach for the 71-76 GHz, 81-86 GHz and 92-95 GHz bands. We seek comment on the proposed interference protection criteria. To the extent we use site-by-site licensing in these bands, we also seek comment on the applicable interference protection criteria that should be used. In particular, we seek comment on whether any of the criteria in Section 101.105 of our Rules could be applied to these bands. Frequency Tolerance. Loea proposes a frequency tolerance of 0.03 percent for all fixed and mobile stations. Although Loea provides no basis for this proposal, we note that this is the same frequency tolerance we applied in the 31.3-40.0 GHz band. We believe that this frequency tolerance should provide the flexibility necessary

We propose that AWS licensees similarly conform to the technical criteria specified in TIA Bulletin TSB 10-F, or procedures other than TSB 10-F that follow generally acceptable good engineering practices pursuant to Section 101.105(c) of the Commission's Rules, to determine where AWS operations in the 1995-2000 and 2020-2025 MHz bands would cause interference to BAS operations, such that their relocation would be necessary before AWS operations could commence. We further propose that AWS licensees likewise conform to the methodology and criteria in TIA Bulletin TSB-86 to compute interference between satellite and fixed services. We

Accordingly, the Branch properly treated Southern Union's application as a request for a new license, and granted the station a new call sign, WPOT834. 6. An application for a new license must satisfy certain requirements. Section 101.105(c) of the Commission's Rules requires a showing of 145 kilometers of co-channel separation between all existing stations and pending applications for fixed-to-fixed systems in the 928-929/952-960 MHz bands.

- unique factual circumstances that warrant the grant of the waiver request, and that the underlying purpose of the rule would not be frustrated by the proposed frequency use. Pappas argues that there is no available spectrum in the 948 MHz Broadcast Auxiliary Service band, and any additional usage would cause impermissible interference to existing microwave licenses in violation of Section 101.105 of the Commission's Rules. Second, Pappas' frequency coordinator, Micronet, reviewed the available spectrum in the other possible spectrum bands, and found that neither the 13 GHz band, nor the 18 GHz band, nor the 23 GHz band would satisfy the reliability requirements set forth by the equipment manufacturers for the 33-mile path. Pappas contends that these bands suffer substantial signal

(MDS Operations), for waiver of Sections 101.105(a)(4), 101.147(p), and 101.1440 of the Commission's rules. These rules, which set power limits for stations in the Multichannel Video Distribution and Data Service (MVDDS) at 12.2-12.7 GHz, limit Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) levels at 14 dBm per 24 MHz.

- MDS Operations to operate the Sandia Park transmitting antenna at 22 dBm EIRP, pursuant to this Order, correlates to a potential saturation zone within 7.5 km of the Sandia Park site (in the direction of Albuquerque) for future NGSO FSS receivers operating in the 12.2-12.7 GHz band. In this regard, we find that granting MDS Operations a waiver of Section 101.105(a)(4)(i) to extend the ``future NGSO impact zone'' from a 3 km to a 7.5 km radius will not frustrate the underlying purpose of the rule because we are only granting a limited waiver that extends the ``NGSO impact zone'' in a very small area within the Albuquerque-Santa Fe MVD and therefore NGSO FSS receivers will not be precluded from operation

In particular, we seek comment on whether any of the criteria in Section 101.105 of our Rules could be applied to these bands. Frequency Tolerance. Loea proposes a frequency tolerance of 0.03 percent for all fixed and mobile stations.

MRC supports prior coordination for fixed links, but argues that non-fixed links should be exempted in favor of the existing local frequency coordination process, which it contends is working well. MRC also supports the adoption, for BAS, of criteria in Section 101.105(c) and consequently TIA TSB 10-F, which provide guidelines for applying and developing interference protection criteria, because they are consistent with the existing Section 74.638 in establishing a minimum adjacent channel interference C/I ratio of 56 dB.

- devices will be regulated under Part 15 of our rules. Technical Rules Interference Protection Criteria. Background. In the NPRM, we proposed to allow licensees to resolve their coordination problems with as little input from the Commission as possible. In addition, to the extent we decided to use registration, we asked for comments on whether any of the criteria in Section 101.105 of our Rules could be applied to these bands. Loea suggested that Part 101.111 provided appropriate emission limitations to protect adjacent bands from harmful interference. Similarly, the Joint Parties, Cisco (with modification), and WCAI supported the use of Part 101.111 for the 71-76 and 81-86 GHz bands. Discussion. The record gives ample support for the use generally of Part 101

In connection with the use of Parts 25 and 101 coordination procedures for the coordination of FSS earth stations with mobile stations in the 7 GHz and 13 GHz bands, we note that the interference protection criteria in Sections 101.105(a), (b), and (c) for FS, and referenced by Sections 74.638 and 78.36, respectively, for BAS and CARS, specifically address the protection of fixed stations, but not mobile stations.

- in densely populated areas, WCA believes maintaining a carrier-to-interference signal (C/I) ratio of 36 dB as the minimum would substantially overprotect many links, possibly giving those first in operation unneeded and unwarranted preemption rights over later entrants. Consequently, WCA asks the Commission to remove the 36 dB minimum limit from Section 101.147(z) and to adopt WCA's proposal to amend Section 101.105 so as to set the C/I ratio to protect each link as needed but in no event more than 36 dB. In addition, WCA proposes adoption of interference protection criteria based on no more than 1.0 dB of degradation to the static threshold of a protected receiver using digital modulation, and no more than 1.0 dB of degradation to the

In addition, we define ``incumbent'' as any station licensed by the Commission prior to July 1, 1999, as well as, any assignments or transfers of such station as of January 19, 2000.
