File Nos. 0003483193 (WQJE535, granted August 11, 2008) and 0003483929 (WQJF544, granted August 20, 2008).

- loses its license for failure to comply with the adopted standard, will be prohibited from holding that same license for the same territory in the future. We seek comment on these proposals. If we decide to license the spectrum in these bands on a site-by-site basis, we seek comment on whether to apply the construction requirements set forth in Section 101.63 of our Rules. Section 101.63 provides, inter alia, that licensees authorized under Part 101 of our Rules must be in operation within 18 months from the initial date of grant. Section 101.63 further provides that failure to timely begin operation of the station will result in the automatic cancellation of that authorization. We seek comment on this construction requirement, as

- under § 17.4 of this chapter. Incumbent operators and geographic area licensees may negotiate alternative criteria. (c) The frequencies associated with incumbent authorizations that have been cancelled automatically or otherwise been recovered by the Commission will automatically revert to the applicable BTA licensee. 101.1405 Performance Requirements (a) Incumbent site-based licensees are subject to the construction requirements set forth in § 101.63. (b)) All ITFS BTA licensees must demonstrate substantial service at the time of license renewal. A licensee's substantial service showing should include, but not be limited to, the following information for each channel for which it holds a license, in each BTA or portion of a BTA covered by their license, in order to qualify for renewal of that license.

- coordination agreements with prior licensed facility operators before operating. (b) Whenever a licensee constructs or makes system changes as described in paragraph (a) of this section, the licensee is required to notify the Commission within 30 days of the change under § 1.947 of this chapter and include a statement of the technical parameters of the changed station. 5. Section 101.63 would be amended by revising paragraph (a) to read as follows: § 101.63 Period of construction; certification of completion of construction. (a) Each station, except in Local Multipoint Distribution Services, 24 GHz Service, the 37.0-40.0 GHz and 42.0-42.5 GHz bands, authorized under this part must be in operation within 18 months from the initial date of grant.

- license authorizations. As discussed in further detail herein, we find that the subject ninety-eight MAS licenses issued to Wincomm have either expired or cancelled. Thus, we find that Wincomm no longer has valid authorizations to operate the ninety-eight MAS stations. By way of background, between 1995 and 1996, Wincomm was authorized to operate ninety-eight MAS licenses in thirty-six states. Section 101.63 of the Commission's Rules provides that MAS stations must be placed in operation within eighteen months from the initial date of grant. Further, if the licensee fails to place the stations in operation in a timely manner, the authorization cancels automatically. On October 9, 1998, CellNet Data Systems, Inc. (CellNet) petitioned the Commission to revoke the MAS licenses issued to

Other Licensee Obligations Background. In the NPRM, the Commission sought comment on whether to apply the construction requirements set forth in Section 101.63 of our Rules. Section 101.63 provides, inter alia, that licensees authorized under Part 101 of our Rules must be in operation within 18 months from the initial date of grant.

- for digital modulation. Because the 1.0 dB limit for degradation of the T/I ratio was adopted in the Report and Order, we need not address WCA's request to impose this requirement. Construction Period Background Persuaded by the aggressive construction requirements set forth in the record, in the Report and Order the Commission shortened the traditional 18-month construction requirement of Section 101.63 of the Commission's rules to 12 months. The Commission clarified that each construction period will commence on the date that the third-party database manager registers each link and that it will not require users to file a notification requirement as mandated by section 1.946(d) of the Commission's rules. Instead, licensees will provide notice to a database manager to withdraw unconstructed

- costs associated with the coordination and licensing process for (1) spectral relocation and, later, (2) for digital conversion. To minimize the potential for duplicative costs, we conclude that MVPD licensees should have the option to specify analog and digital emission designators (each of which must be coordinated) on one application. In this connection, we are adopting a revision to Section 101.63 of the Commission's rules to allow MVPD licensees to meet their construction requirement and not automatically surrender their license as long as they are operating a system using either an authorized analog or digital emissions. Accordingly, such MVPD licensees will be authorized to operate using one or both modulations, e.g., the licensee can operate its analog system and later convert
