Operating at lower frequency and lower power than DBS, FSS satellites require a much larger dish for reception ( 3 to 8 feet ( 1 to 2. 5m ) in diameter for K < sub > u </ sub > band, and 12 feet ( 3. 6m ) or larger for C band ).

Operating in a state heavier than air avoids the need to dump ballast at lift-off and also avoids the need to lose costly lifting gas on landing.

Note that this gets the relationship between FFS and UFS backwards ; see the " Local Filesystems " chapter of The Design and Implementation of the 4. 4BSD Operating System, which refers to the upper layer as UFS, and the " Local Filestores " chapter, which refers to the lower layer as FFS.

Assuming the model, for a given level of sales and profit, the DOL is higher the higher fixed costs are ( an example ): for a given level of sales and profit, a company with higher fixed costs has a higher contribution margin, and hence its Operating Income increases more rapidly with Sales than a company with lower fixed costs ( and correspondingly lower contribution margin ).
