Therefore, we believe that our approach is a reasonable compromise that respects the desire of DBS proponents to minimize customer contact with MVDDS parties. Nonetheless, we recognize that, as SBCA asserts, Section 101.1440(e) of the adopted rules appears to require a DBS licensee to oversee all future DBS receive antenna installations, which they currently may not do. Often, DBS receive antenna installations are done through retail outlets that sell DBS equipment or by a DBS customer. It was not our intent to alter these arrangements. Rather, we expect a DBS licensee to provide

Discussion. We propose that MVDDS protection of DBS (and DBS protection of MVDDS) under Part 101.1440 applies to less-than-nine-degree-spaced DBS satellites. We request comment on whether there is a need to revisit these rules as a result of authorization of additional U.S. services in the future at orbital locations that are not currently assigned to the United States in the Region 2 BSS plan.

MVDDS operators have the responsibility of resolving any harmful interference problems that their operations may cause to these public safety incumbent point-to-point operations in the 12.2-12.7 GHz band. Frequency Coordination Rules The MVDDS operator must comply strictly with all of the requirements set forth in 47 C.F.R. 101.103(f) and 101.1440. Among other things, the MVDDS licensee shall, prior to the construction or addition of an MVDDS transmitting antenna, provide notice of intent to construct the proposed antenna site to NGSO FSS licensees operating in the 12.2-12.7 GHz frequency band and maintain an Internet web site of all existing transmitting sites and transmitting antennas that are scheduled for operation within one

  • Protection and Coordination MVDDS is licensed on a non-harmful interference co-primary basis to existing DBS operations and on a co-primary basis with NGSO FSS stations in this band. Among other things, the MVDDS operator must comply strictly with all of the interference protection and coordination requirements set forth in 47 C.F.R. 1.924, 1.928, 101.103, 101.105, 101.129, 101.147, 101.1421, 101.1423, and 101.1440. NGSO FSS: The MVDDS licensee must not locate MVDDS transmitting antennas within 10 km of any qualifying NGSO FSS receiver unless mutual agreement is obtained between the MVDDS and NGSO FSS licensees. (See 47 C.F.R. 101.129). Prior to the construction or addition of an MVDDS transmitting antenna, the MVDDS licensee must provide notice of intent to construct the proposed antenna
