           Re:       Request for Special   Temporary   Authorit

   Gentlemen:

           On behalf of EMS Technologies, Inc. ("EMS"), we are submitting herewith a
   request for Special Temporary Authority ("STA") to commence operation of a new
   station in the experimental radio service during the pendency of prcfie_:_SEi_rig’l_aflQe_____, 56759(&"?7
   Commission of its application for a new station on FCC Form 4427 The application is
   being filed simultaneously with this request for an STA, and a copy of it is attached
   hereto for the Commission‘s convenience.

            As explained in the application, EMS Wireless, a division of EMS Technologies,
   Inc. is seeking an experimental radio license in order to test antenna designs for cellular,
   PCS and similar communications services, as well as spot checking antennas to ensure
   conformity with established specifications. EMS has a number of customers who would
   like to begin immediate testing of their antennas. Expedited testing will, in turn, benefit
   the public by expediting manufacture and distribution of antennas to satisfy the public‘s
   demand for increasingly popular cellular, PCS and similar service, and ensure that
   antennas meet quality standards.

            EMS believes that the public interest will be served and that no entity will be
   harmed by grant of the instant STA. Because of the very low power (1 watt) at which
   tests will be conducted and the terrain of the test area, EMS is highly confident that the
   test program for which the STA is sought will not interfere with any other station. EMS
   acknowledges that its proposed operation of an experimental radio frequencies is

conditioned on final disposition of its FCC Form 442 by the FCC and will cease
operation immediately if requested by the FCC.

      A drug certification statement, a check in the amount of $45.00 in payment of the
STA request filing fee, FCC Form 159, and a copy of FCC Form 442 are attached hereto.

        Any questions regarding this matter should be directed to the undersigned
counsel.
