Viasat Defends Pending Inmarsat Deal

SpaceX objections to the Viasat/Inmarsat deal (see 2206130026) aren't transition-specific and involve licenses that aren't even subject of the applications, Visat and Inmarsat said in replies Tuesday (docket 22-153). Citing objections by Amazon to Viasat and Inmarsat both holding dormant satellite authorizations in the V band, against FCC rules, they said if the applications remain pending at the time the agency acts on the transfer of control applications, they will "take appropriate action and seek relief as needed to ensure compliance."
