                                                                                      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 requested operations are to support radiating testing requirements set forth under the
following government contract:

       Contract Number:         NOO173—14—D—2007
       Agency Customer:         Naval Research Laboratory
       Contract POC:            Julian Kusel, Code 5720, (202) 404—3699
                                Julian.kusel@nrl.navy.mil

        The experimental test to be performed is to evaluate the characteristics of the antenna to
be test including Gain, Beamwidth and Side lobe Level. The antenna being evaluated will be the
receive antenna in this test. The test is to be performed as part of characterization and
Acceptance Testing of the antenna prior to integration of the antenna into a an antenna assembly
that contains two or more additional antennas, operating at different frequency bands, prior to
final alignment and delivery of the units to NRL and the Navy. Specific use and application of
this equipment is not available for disclosure.

       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


                             66°                       315°          —16°

       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: Mike Matsick — 610—248—3929
