Special Temporary Authority application - Explanation

Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:

February 06, 2012 In re Application of 3G Wireless, LLC 501 McCormick Drive, Suite B Glen Burnie, MD 21061 To Operate in the 2360-2390MHz and 1425-1530MHz Telemetry Bands to Provide TV Coverage in the San Francisco, California area. ATTN.: Microwave Branch 3G Wireless, LLC hereby requests Special Temporary Authority (STA) to operate in the 2360-2390MHz and the 1425-1530MHz Telemetry Bands pursuant to Section 21.25 of the Commission?s Rules. 3G Wireless, LLC requests that the Commission grant it special temporary authority to operate on the frequencies centered on 2365MHz, 2375MHz, 2385MHz, 1435MHz, 1445MHz 1467MHz 1477MHz and 1510MHz with a 10 MHz bandwidth from May 13, 2012 through May 16, 2012 with intermittent usage. As explained below, 3G Wireless, LLC is filing an STA request for the live television transmission of ?The Tour of California? road bicycle race. 3G Wireless submits that there are extraordinary circumstances warranting a grant of the STA request. Versus has contracted 3G Wireless, LLC to provide the necessary microwave for the live transmission of this eight stage event. Due to the extreme frequency congestion in the San Francisco, California 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 2360-2390MHz and the 1415-1530MHz Telemetry Band. A complete map of the race stages can be found on the Tour of California web-site, http://www.amgentourofcalifornia.com/Route/map.html. 3G Wireless, LLC certifies that the operation of the requested channels for the purposes specified herein will not cause interference to any established stations. Grant of the instant request for STA in the 2.3GHz band and the 1.4GHz band would serve the public interest by enabling 3G Wireless, LLC to supply the requested remote video coverage for this event. The proposed service would enhance coverage of the event by providing on the spot pictures from mobile locations along the race route that would not otherwise be available to the production company. 3G Wireless, LLC is in the process of obtaining the consent of the relevant frequency coordinators for this project, including AFTRCC. AFTRCC has indicated its intent to forward the results of the coordination to the Commission.
