Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
Applicant seeks an extension of STA to continue testing and demonstration of a new model (75 cm) of GATRs satellite antennas in Ku-band. This STA will allow GATR to gather performance data on this novel antenna design and verify manufacturing and testing processes and procedures, further refining the product before scaling up production. GATR intends to file a request for regular authority for this service.

Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:  Extension of STA to continue demonstration of capabilities and performance of on-satellite network testing of GATRs new 75 cm satellite antenna. To demonstrate capabilities and perform on-satellite network testing of GATRs new 75 cm sized satellite antenna. The extreme portability of this new 75 cm system (1 case, less than 35lbs total) follows the natural progression of GATRs already vetted VSAT terminals, and will enable high bandwidth hub operations for the Government, Military, and Commercial markets. Demonstrations will be primarily for US Government customers throughout CONUS, including Alaska and Hawaii. Typical Points of Communication are Galaxy-17 (91W) and Horizons-1 (127W), but may include all US commercial Ku-band satellites as necessary. A similar license (E080108) exists for GATRs 2.4m, 1.8m, and 1.2m sized antennas in Ku-band. This STA will allow for testing of the new 75 cm sized antenna before adding it to the above license and releasing it as a product.
