                                                                            "Public‘" Exhibit 1


                                 PUBLIC INTEREST STATEMENT


1.     Introduction

    By the instant application ("Application"), Dynetics, Inc. ("Dynetics") requests that the
Commission grant a two year experimental license to permit Dynetics to operate the facilities
(the "Facilities") specified in the instant application.

2.     Purpose and Nature of the Operation

       Dynetics, headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama, delivers high—quality, high—value
engineering, scientific, and information technology (IT) solutions to customers within the U.S.
government and a range of other market segments. Dynetics delivers the "Power of Solutions,"
providing complete lifecycle analysis, engineering, and hardware, to support customer missions.

        As a general matter, this experimental license is requested to support a Dynetics Internal
Research and Development (IRAD) project to develop, test and validate a ground surveillance
radar. Dynetics will locate the radar at a fixed site on the roof of the Dynetics Solutions
Complex building in Cummings Research Park. The radar will be placed on the building roof
with the radar antenna at a fixed orientation of approximately 225° clockwise from true north
and level with horizon. Note that there are superstructures on the building that are higher than
where the radar will be placed, so the radar is not the highest point on the building and would not
itself be a hazard to aviation. Additional confidential information regarding the purpose and
nature of the experiment is contained at Confidential Exhibit 3.

       Waiver of the Station ID rules set forth at Section 5.115 is respectfully requested.

    ___A "No" reply has been inserted with respect to the question "Is a directional antenna
(other than radar) used?" because the transmitter is a radar device. For the purposes of full
disclosure, however, the following additional directionality information is provided:

       Width of beam in degrees at

         the half power point:               Azimuth: 120 deg, elevation: 20 deg

       Orientation in horizontal plane:      Fixed at 225 deg relative to North

       Orientation in vertical plane:        Fixed at 0 deg; level with horizon


3.     Interference Mitigation

        Dynetics is well aware of its obligations under Part 5 of the Commission‘s rules to avoid
interference to co—channel licensees in non—experimental services, and will take all steps to
ensure compliance with this obligation. With respect to interference mitigation, Dynetics
understands that FAA (or other government stakeholders) may restrict radiation to certain
azimuth and/or elevation sectors in order to ensure that the proposed Facilities do not pose a
threat of interference to adjacent emitters. Accordingly, this is to confirm that the subject radar
device can be manually pointed to specific directions to mitigate interference and that Dynetics
stands ready to work with FAA (or other government stakeholders) to identify any reasonably
necessary orientation restrictions for the system.

4.     Stop Buzzer.

       Dynetics advises that the following will be available by wireless telephone and will act as
"stop buzzers" if any issues regarding interference arise during testing:

       Primary:        Michael Stokes (256—682—0342)
       Secondary:      Joel Simoneau (256—744—4514)

         For the foregoing reasons, Dynetics respectfully submits that approval of this Application
is in the public interest, convenience and necessity.
