, one of the original four bidders for the satellite radio licenses in the 90s, held a series of meetings recently with the FCC to discuss the pending merger between Sirius Satellite Radio and XM Satellite Radio.
According to five separate filings made public today, Primosphere met with various members of the Federal Communications Commission to reiterate points made in prior filings.
Primosphere is asking the agency to consolidate the Sirius-XM licenses and grant them the other half of the SDARS spectrum. The company has said that it is prepared to construct and launch their own satellites in order to be “a new competitor” in satellite radio.
On April 8th, Primosphere met with FCC Commissioner Adelstein and Rudy
Brioche of Adelstein’s office, as well as held a separate meeting with
Amy Blankenship of Commissioner Tate’s office.
On the same day,
Primosphere also met with Elizabeth Andrion of Chairman Martin’s
office, Rich Chessen of Commissioner Copps’ office and with staff
members from the Media Bureau, International Bureau and Office of
General Counsel.
