                                                                                   Exhibit 1

                                    Public Interest Statement


      By the instant application ("STA Request"), Cobham Advanced Electronic Solutions Inc.
("Cobham") requests that the Commission grant Special Temporary Authority ("STA") to permit
near—term operation of the facilities specified herein.



       1.      Purpose of Operation

       The experimental test to be performed is to confirm whether or not production testing and
tuning of an antenna array can be performed on Cobham‘s outdoor antenna test facility.
Currently, these tests are outsourced to another company, and STA is requested to determine the
feasibility of conducting these tests on Cobham‘s outdoor range. The antenna under test will be
the receive antenna in this test. Specific use and application of this equipment is not available
for disclosure.

       The transmissions are to be performed by Cobham in its capacity as a subcontractor for
DRS Training and Control Systems:

               Sub—Contract Numbers:           DRS PO #517327; DRS PO #596885
               Customer:                       DRS Training and Control Systems
               DRS Contract POC:               Cathy O‘Dell
                                               Cathy.odell@drs.com
                                               (727) 369—1140

       A waiver of the Station ID requirements of 47 CFR §5.115(a) is respectfully requested.



       2.      Directionality

       The following information describes the directionality, beamwidth and orientation of the
antennas associated with these requested transmissions:

                Width of Beam in degrees Orientation in         Orientation in
                   at half power point   horizontal plane|      vertical plane


                            48°                     90°              0°


       3.      Mitigation of Interference/Stop Buzzer

       Cobham is well aware of its obligation under Commission rules to immediately terminate
operation in the event of interference to any other licensed emitter. Cobham is a long—standing
Commission licensee and the company will take any and all actions to ensure that it complies
with its obligations as a licensee of experimental facilities.

       The Stop Buzzer in the event of interference is:
