> satellite receive dishes (FSS) will be interested to know that satellite
> provider SES has offered to reimburse stations for the fee. The idea is
> that the currently registered number of dishes is so low, the FCC will
> find
> it easy to carve up the C-Band services in favor of G5. This far, the
> number of registered dishes is now about 5,300, with some 1,300
> registered
> through July 26th. It is estimated that there are some 20,000 - 25,000
> FSS
> dishes out there. For more information, you can call SES at (609)
> 987-4300.
