Intelsat Says More Time Needed on C-Band TT&Cs

Intelsat suggested seeking a waiver of an apparent requirement that it consolidate existing C-band telemetry, tracking and command/gateway sites in the contiguous U.S. by Dec. 5, per a docket 18-122 post Tuesday. Recapping a call with FCC International Bureau Chief Tom Sullivan and Wireless Bureau personnel, Intelsat said such consolidation would take more than 18 months.
