 Re:        Renewal of Experimental Authorization (KA2XHN)

 Dear Mr. Caton:

         COMSAT Corporation, by its COMSAT World Systems business unit (CWS), herein files
 its request for renewal of its KA2XHN experimental license and authorization.

         As set forth in greater detail in its attached report, CWS has used its wideband mobile
 experimental authorization to begin determining the overall viability of wideband mobile services
 via the INTELSAT system. Renewal of CWS‘s experimental authorization is extremely important
 to our customers, including the U.S. Navy, which is extremely pleased with wideband mobile
 results and is planning expanded testing in the 1997—1999 timeframe. Additionally, future testing
 will focus on the emergence of inter—related technologies in such fields as emergency telemedicine,
 the development of enhanced gyroscope stabilizing mechanisms and antenna manufacture; and
 will contribute valuable information on the use of FSS frequencies in the maritime environment.
 Accordingly, renewal of CWS‘s experimental authority, as requested herein, will promote the
 public interest, convenience and necessity.

                                              Respectfully submitted,

                                              COMSATWorld Systems


                                                 Byl /’
                                                      Robert A. Mansbach
                                                      Its Attorney
