## Abstract

This document addresses two petitions for reconsideration of the First Report and Order, filed by EchoStar Satellite Corporation and the National Association of Broadcasters and Association for Maximum Service Television, Inc. The petitions for reconsideration challenge the process the Commission used to establish values for signal loss quantities in the predictive model, the particular signal loss values adopted, and our antenna height assumptions. The petitions also raise issues concerning the independence of persons who may be designated to conduct on-site reception tests, procedures to follow in determining when to test, and requirements for notification of parties as to the time and place of planned tests. The Commission denies the petitions for reconsideration.
