§  25.124   Unified space station and earth station authorization.

   (a) A single authorization may be issued for the operations of a GSO
   space station or NGSO space station(s) and the blanket-licensed earth
   stations that will operate within that satellite system, excluding GSO
   FSS and NGSO FSS satellite systems operating in bands below 10 GHz and
   bands subject to § 25.136. The available frequency bands are:

   (1) Non-Voice, Non-Geostationary MSS: 137-138 MHz, 148-150.05 MHz,
   399.9-400.05 MHz, and 400.15-401 MHz;

   (2) 1.5/1.6 GHz MSS: 1525-1559 MHz and 1626.5-1660.5 MHz;

   (3) 1.6/2.4 GHz MSS: 1610-1626.5 MHz and 2483.5-2500 MHz;

   (4) 2 GHz MSS: 2000-2020 MHz and 2180-2200 MHz;

   (5) GSO FSS: 10.7-12.2 GHz, 14-14.5 GHz, 18.3-18.8 GHz, 19.7-20.2 GHz,
   28.35-28.6 GHz, 29.25-30 GHz, 40-42 GHz, and 48.2-50.2 GHz;

   (6) NGSO FSS: 10.7-12.7 GHz, 14-14.5 GHz, 17.8-18.6 GHz, 18.8-19.4 GHz,
   19.6-20.2 GHz, 28.35-29.1 GHz, 29.5-30 GHz, 40-42 GHz, and 48.2-50.2
   GHz; and

   (7) GSO and NGSO MSS: 19.7-20.2 GHz and 29.5-30 GHz.

   (b) An application for a satellite system license described in
   paragraph (a) must contain:

   (1) The information required by § 25.114 or, for a non-U.S.-licensed
   space station, § 25.137;

   (2) A certification that earth station operations under the satellite
   system license will comply with part 1, subpart I and part 17 of this
   chapter; and

   (3) Any additional information required under this part, including
   under § 25.115, for operation of the blanket-licensed earth stations
   that is not duplicative or unnecessary due to the information provided
   for the space station operation.
