                                                                                                     Exhibit 1
        1.       Introduction

        By the instant application ("STA Request"), BAE Systems Information and Electronic
Systems Integration Inc. ("BAE Systems") requests that the Commission grant Special
Temporary Authority ("STA") to permit BAE Systems to operate the facilities (the "Facilities")
specified in the instant STA Request, for a two month period from 3/5—5/4/2018, or until such
earlier time as the simultaneously—filed Modification Application (described below) is granted by
the Commission.

        In a separate filing, a Modification Application is being filed under File No. 0024—EX—
CM—2018 with respect to Station WD2ZXDP to modify the license to correct the geographic
coordinates to 40—42—12 N.Lat.; 74—52—11 W.Long. (NADS3)‘ and to address the updating of
othertechnical parameters.

       This STA Request is being field with the Commission to seek authority to operate for a
temporary two month period from 3/5—5/4/2018, in the eventthat the Modification Application is
not granted by March 5, 2018. This two month temporary period is requested because in the
near term BAE Systemsis required to perform testing both in March (strongly preferred between
March 5—9, but no later than March 16) and then again in April for another week of (currently
unscheduled) testing.

       If the Modification Application is granted prior to March 5, 2018, then this STA Request
can be dismissed as moot.

        2.       Purpose of Operations

       These antenna testing operationsrelate to Station WD2XDP, which supports the
following contract:

        Contract Number:            NO0019—15—C—0038
        Agency Customer:            NAVAIR, PMA—213
        Contract POC:               Michael Hurley; POC: michael.s.hurley@navy.mil; 301—342—5998

         3.       Directionality/Orientation:

              Width of Beam in           Orientation in              Orientationin Vertical
              Degrees at Half—           Horizontal Plane            Plane (degreesfrom
              Power Point                (degrees from True          Horizontal)
                                         North)
              3.78—3.57°                 161°                        0°

‘ Note that the WD2XDP transmitter is not being moved, this is only a minor correction of the coordinates on the
license to reflect the actual focation of the transmit tower. Lockheed Martin, which had previously licensed these
facilities under (now expired) call sign WA2XSS (and before that KK2XGG), had specified the transmitter
coordinates (as listed on the current license) in NAD27 format. In 2003, BAE Systems re—licensed the facilities
under the current call sign Station WD2XDP, and at that time BAE Systems identified the same coordinates, also in
NAD27 format. While recently preparing FAA coordination materials for the newly—implemented WebFCR system,
BAE Systems discovered that both the NAD27 coordinates specified on the companies‘ applications, as well as the
actual NAD83 coordinates for the transmitter, are slightly different than the actual transmitter location —— by about
1.Skm. BAE Systems is filing the Modification Application (and this STA Request) to ensure that the WD2XDP
license accurately reflects the actual transmitter location in NAD83 format.


       4.     Stop Buzzer

       The designated point—of—contact to terminate the system if having interference
occurs is BAE Systems Emergency Services Center at (603) 885—3842.
