Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
3G Wireless, LLC requests that the Commission grant it
special temporary authority to operate on the frequencies centered on 2254MHz,
2264MHz, 2284MHz, 2294MHz with an 8MHz bandwidth, 1456MHz and 1496MHz
with a 16 MHz bandwidth from August 13, 2018 through August 20, 2018 with intermittent
usage. As explained below, 3G Wireless, LLC is filing an STA request for the live
television transmission of “The Tour of Colorado” road bicycle race. 3G Wireless submits
that there are extraordinary circumstances warranting a grant of the STA request. RPM Events has contracted 3G Wireless, LLC to provide the necessary
microwave for the live transmission of this four-stage event. Due to the extreme
frequency congestion in the Denver, Colorado area, coupled with the added congestion
from traditional Television and News coverage of the special event, 3G Wireless, LLC
requests the use of channels in the 2250-2298MHz and the 1450-1500MHz Telemetry
Band. A complete map of the race stages can be found on the Tour of Colorado website,
