Dear Sirs,

Digital Microwave Corporation hereby requests an experimental license for a point—to—
point duplex Digital Microwave link in the 23 GHz frequency band. The purpose of the
link to support point to multipoint trials, (LMDS 28GHz) is being conducted by Lucent
Technologies in Milpitas, California. Digital Microwave Corporation will use the link to
assess the interference conditions in a mixed point—to—point and point to multipoint
network and to validate theoretical performance calculations. The experiment goal is to
establish sufficient empirical data in order to optimize use of Spectrum and establish firm
design criteria for mixed point—to— point / multipoint networks.

The equipment details are as follows:

              Manufacturer:              Digital Microwave Corporation
              Model:                      Spectrum II, 23 GHz
              Dupilelink, 2 terminals, non—diversity, protected
              Frequency to be used:      22275 MHz
                                         23475 MHz Vertically Polarized
              Nature of service:         Field Trial
              Digital Line Rate 45 Mbi/s
              Occupied Bandwidith:       40 MHz
              Power Output:              17 dBm or 0.05 Watts
              Emission Designator:       40MOFZW
              Antennas:                 2 ft, parabolic, High Performance, Class A
              EIRP:                     56.1 dBm
              T/R Spacing:              1200 MHz

                                                                    November 9, 1998




       Location of the link:      Holiday Inn, Milpitas
                                  37 25‘20" N
                                  121 557.9" W

                               Lucent Tasman
                               37 24‘38" N
                                121 55‘8.33" W
       Overall Height above ground: Holiday Inn existing structure 42 meters, 3 meter
                                     Mast over roof level.
                                         Lucent Tasman, existing structure 4 meters,
                                        3 meter mast over roof level.

We can operate in any channel with the existing 23 GHz band. The proposed
installation date is November 16, 1998. With the 28 GHz band being adopted, both
domestically and internationally for Broadband point to multipoint applications, point—to—
point radios will be required to support hub—site interconnect / backhand. Therefore,
Digital Microwave view this experiment as being essential for the global success of the
23 GHz point to point links in this application.
