5. The 12 GHz beacons are transmitted through the communications antennas and are of the same transmit polarization.
6. ** The polarization of the Spot 3 beam may be changed via ground command to be orthogonal to either Spot 1 or Spot 2.
7. Spot 3 operation in transponders (1-3) and (4-6) is limited to the bandwidth defined by transponders (1-2) and (5-6) respectively.
8. Spot 3 may operate with the 41 MHz portion of the up-link in transponder (10-12) corresponding to the bandwidth defined by the
downlink A or B POL GLOBAL/C-SPOT transponder 12.

3. # On spot 12 GHz downlink there is a 9 MHz Guardband before (1-2) to accommodate the beacon.
4. †The polarization senses of each spot beam can be changed by ground command independent of the other spot beam.
5. The 11 GHz or 12 GHz spot frequencies may be selected independently for each beam and each channel.
6. The 12 GHz beacons are transmitted through the communications antennas and are of the same transmit polarization.
8. Up to a maximum of six, out of ten, Ku-band transponders can be simultaneously with some limitations on the selection of specific transponders.
9. Uplink and downlink spot beams are independently selectable on a transponder-by-transponder basis.
