Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
This applicant seeks a modified and extended STA TO operate test transmitters to conduct channel sounding measurements in Amateur Bands. This experiment will gather radio propagation data to address future Position Navigation and Timing (PNT) challenges. Software defined radio (SDR) transmitters (Great Scott Gadgets HackRF One) will be used to generate test waveforms. Data recorded by receivers will be analyzed to inform on interference, multipath and other propagation impairments.

Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:  Experimental program to perform channel sounding measurements over Amateur Bands. Each experiment will only be hours in duration and multiple experiments will take place during the week of January 15th. Continuous operation over the entire time period is not expected.
