Finally, we disagree with Longhorn, that the extensions granted for LMDS licensees justify an extension for Longhorn. The Bureau granted a three year extension of time to LMDS licensees after their ten-year construction requirement under Section 101.1011(a) of the Commission's Rules due to equipment availability issues. Longhorn argues that they are similarly situated and seeks a three year extension after their ten-year construction deadline due to lack of available 220 MHz, 5 kHz bandwidth land mobile radio equipment. However, as noted above we find there are sufficient equipment options for 220 MHz licensees and therefore, we find

designated to determine whether the licensee has complied with the Commission's Rules and has provided ``substantial service,'' which we define as service that is ``sound, favorable, and substantially above a level of mediocre service which might just minimally warrant renewal.'' This ``substantial service'' showing, as we define it here, has been used in other services.

Substantial service is service that is sound, favorable, and substantially above a level of mediocre service which might just minimally warrant renewal.

� Performance Requirements. 221 Because our Part 27 rules will not apply to services operating in the 216-220 MHz and 1427-1432 MHz bands, licensees in these bands must comply with the specific rules applicable to the services under which they are authorized to operate. See supra �� 12, 37. 222 See 47 C.F.R. �� 27.14(c)(1)-(4); see also 47 C.F.R. � 101.1011 (LMDS context).

service available to one-third of the population in their licensed area within five years and two-thirds of the population in their licensed areas within ten years. See 47 C.F.R. � 24.203. Some services have a requirement that ``substantial service'' be provided by a date certain. For example, LMDS carriers must offer substantial service within 10 years. See 47 C.F.R. � 101.1011(a).
