SES Seeks US Market Access for NSS-11

SES wants U.S. market access for the Gibraltar-licensed NSS-11 satellite. In an International Bureau filing Wednesday, it said approval would let the company meet Northwest U.S. and Pacific region demand for Ku-band services from the satellite's 176 degrees east orbital slot, and that it wants to start service to U.S. customers by Jan. 1. It said the satellite was launched in October 2000.
