Anonymous | this is what i heard. pasted from reliable site DISH Wins OK for Use of Telesat Canada Satellite This week, EchoStar won Federal Communications Commission approval to use a Telesat Canada satellite for delivery of services to customers in the United States. Specifically, the FCC's International Bureau granted EchoStar's request for a blanket authorization allowing customers to receive programming via Ku-Band capacity on Telesat's Anik F3 spacecraft, which will be located at 118 degrees. The Telesat orbital slot is near EchoStar's satellites at 119 degrees. The DBS company also operates satellites at 110 degrees. When approving the request, the bureau said use of the Telesat satellite will "improve the choice of service to consumers" in the U.S. pay-TV market. The FCC, in its order, said EchoStar plans to use the Anik F3 capacity to augment the spectrum it uses for its services, including expanded local-into-local, international, high def and other programming. The FCC said Telesat plans to deploy Anik F3 in the second half of next year. In February 2004, Telesat's board of directors approved the satellite use deal with EchoStar. |
