1Radiocommunication serviceFixed-satellite (Earth-to-space)-
2ApplicationFSS Earth stationsVery small aperture terminal (VSAT) and High e.i.r.p. Satellite Terminal (HEST) operating with GSO FSS networks.
3Frequency bandA: 14.00 - 14.25 GHz
B: 14.25 - 14.50 GHz
Receive frequency bands (space-to-Earth):
A: 12.50 - 12.75 GHz
B: 10.70 - 11.70 GHz.
The receive band 10.7 - 11.7 GHz is co-primary used with the FS under the terms of sufficient geographical separation and uncoordinated FSS Earth stations operate in this band on a non protected basis.

9Authorisation regimeSwitzerland: License exempt.
Liechtenstein: Individual assignment required.
Switzerland: Terminals are license exempt on the condition that the terminals are under the control of a network for which a valid spectrum license for the Swiss territory is required.
Liechtenstein: The exemption from the individual assignment requirement only applies under the condition and in the framework of a valid license for the Liechtenstein territory that includes the use of individual customer terminals.
