Hughes Seeks OK for Earth Stations Tied to HNW 95W Satellite

Hughes wants FCC International Bureau approval for 20 gateway earth stations to communicate with the HNS 95W satellite, the application for which is pending before the bureau (see 1706220002). In a set of bureau applications posted Thursday (for example, here), it said the proposed gateway earth stations would be in 14 states, and HNW 9W would provide broadband services in the Ka- and Q/V-bands.
