    1. Summary of Results
On behalf of Ob3 Networks, Comsearch performed a coordination notice for all existing and
proposed terrestrial licenses within the coordination contours of their proposed Ka-Band earth
station in North Ridge, CA, which will transmit at 28 GHz1. Prior-notification letters were sent to
the licensees and a copy of the notification data is provided in section four of this report. The
earth station coordination was finalized on September 12, 2018.

No objections were received from any of the incumbent 28 GHz licensees. Our notification to
the UMFUS incumbents was performed under the assumption that the earth station would be
operating on a secondary basis to UMFUS L1 & L2 Block operations and a contact at O3b
Networks has been provided in case any concerns may arise in the future.


    2. 28 GHz Common Carrier and LTTS Coordination
In accordance with FCC Rules and Regulations, the Ka-Band earth station in North Ridge, CA
was prior-coordinated by Comsearch. A notification letter and datasheets for this earth station
were sent to the following 28 GHz common carrier fixed microwave licensees. These licensees
are authorized to operate temporary fixed operations from 27.5 – 29.5 GHz on a nationwide basis
or local basis.
