Box 358320 Pittsburgh, PA 15251—5320 Re: Request for Special Temporary Authority for Use of Certain 2 GHz Frequencies, August 10—15, 1999 Dear Gentlemen: CBS Communication Services, Inc. (CCS) requests a Special Temporary Authority (STA) to operate on certain 2.5 GHz frequencies in conjunction with its operations providing television coverage of the PGA championship at the Medinah Country Club, in Medinah, Illinois. Previously, similar STAs have been granted to CCS or its subcontractor, Broadcast Sports Technology (BST), a manufacturer and provider of video transmission equipment for remote video and film production sporting events, for the testing and use of equipment on these frequencies. CCS requests an identical authorization for video production at the upcoming PGA championship. The use of these frequencies, in addition to broadcast auxiliary frequencies normally used for video production, is necessitated by the unavailability of sufficient broadcast auxiliary frequencies for an event of this magnitude. Therefore, in addition to the frequencies for which CCS and BST has existing authority to use, we hereby request, for the period of August 10—15, 1999, use of the following frequencies: Frequency (MHz) Power (watts) Emission 2521 4 (output) 17MOFIW 2545 4 (output) 17MOFIW 2569 4 (output) 17MOFIW 2591 4 (output) 17MOFIW

WILEKES, ARTIs, HEDRICK & LANE — CHARTERED Federal Communications Commission August 2, 1999 Page 2 All operation will be on a non—interference basis to licensed users of these frequencies. CCS and BST have been granted prior special temporary authority to utilize these frequencies in other areas premised on prior coordination with the ITFS licensees in the area. CCS and BST will coordinate use of the requested frequencies with all licensee entities and obtain all necessary concurrence, as was done in previous instances. The location of the Medinah Country Club is 41—57—62N and 88—02—75W. All operation will cease on these frequencies upon any report of interference. The contact person is Raymond Benedict, CBS Communication Services, Inc., who can be reached at (202) 457—4518 or by facsimile at (202) 457—4615. Our check in the amount of $45.00 together with FCC Fee Form 159 is enclosed. Your prompt review of this request is greatly appreciated. Should any question arise concerning this request, kindly contact the undersigned at (202) 457—7874. The applicant hereby certifies that no party to this application is subject to a denial of Federal benefits pursuant to Section 5301 of the Anti—Drug Abuse Act of 1988, 21 U.S.C. § 853a. Respectfully submitted, @T—m Ramsey L. Woodworth Its counsel Enclosures
