	The following Attachment supplements and updates Attachment B of the Public Notice released 
January 21, 2000 ("39 GHz Auction Public Notice") announcing the auction and filing requirements for 
the auction of 2,450 licenses in the 38.6 to 40.0 GHz band scheduled for April 12, 2000 (Auction No. 
30).   Specifically, the Attachment to this Public Notice supplements and updates Attachment B (entitled 
"Pending Applications as of January 12, 2000") of the 39 GHz Auction Public Notice.  

Potential bidders are solely responsible for investigating and evaluating the degree to which such 
pending matters may affect spectrum availability in areas where they seek EA licenses.  To aid potential 
bidders, the Attachment to this Public Notice lists matters pending before the Commission that relate to 
licenses or applications in the 39 GHz band.  The Commission makes no representations or guarantees 
that the listed matters are the only pending matters that could affect spectrum availability in the 39 GHz 
band. 

In addition, certain decisions reached in these matters are subject to judicial appeal and may be 
the subject of additional reconsideration or appeal.  We note that resolution of these matters could have

an impact on the availability of spectrum for EA licensees in the 39 GHz band.  In this regard, potential 
bidders should note the following proceedings:

Bachow Communications, Inc., et. al. v. Federal Communications Commission, Case No. 99-
1346 (and consolidated cases) (D.C. Cir., filed August 30, 1999) ("Bachow  et. al."); see also Commco, 
L.L.C. v. Federal Communications Commission, Case No. 99-1533 (D.C. Cir., filed December 20, 
1999), motion to consolidate with Bachow et. al. filed January 24, 2000.
