Satellite Orbit (NGSO) Fixed-Satellite Services (FSS) licensees to 
maintain a subscriber database in a format that can be readily shared 
to enable MVDDS licensees to determine whether a proposed Multichannel 
Video Distribution and Data Service (MVDDS) transmitting antenna meets 
the minimum spacing requirement relative to qualifying, existing NGSO 
FSS subscriber receivers (set forth in Sec.  101.129, FCC Rules). The 
Commission will use Section 25.139 to ensure that NGSO FSS licensees 
provide MVDDS licensees with the data needed to determine whether a 
proposed MVDDS transmitting site meets the minimum spacing requirement 
relative to certain NGSO FSS receivers.
