Special Temporary Authority application - Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
Du-Comm seeks to test, evaluate, and operate radio equipment, for the purpose of evaluating and developing the functionality and practicality of a NEW Multi-Site Simulcast Narrow-Banded Tactical EMS / Fire Dispatch System. Du-Comm presently has authorization to operate Radio Transmitters at two of the proposed Test Locations, and Test Frequencies, under the Call-Sign WE2XGW, but has no authorization to operate transmitters at THREE OTHER Proposed Test Locations. Without authorization to operate Radio Transmitters at the Two Additional, Proposed, Locations, Du-Comm is unable to properly trouble shoot, and align such a system. Du-Comm is unable to properly trouble shoot, and align such a system on a Du-Comm Authorized Operational Tactical Dispatch Channel without creating undue confusion and delay to the Tactical EMS and FIRE Dispatch operations in progress on That Channel.
