                                                              EXPERIMENTAL STA APPLICATION
                                                              FILE NO. 0619-EX-ST-2017


                 EXHIBIT 1 - REQUEST FOR SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORITY

Harris Corporation ("Harris") hereby requests Special Temporary Authority (“STA”) to conduct
experimental interoperability testing and military observed demonstrations of a HF Wideband waveform
utilizing the Harris Mdl. RF 7800-H radio operating at 24 kHz bandwidth to allow faster data transfer via
HF communications. The interoperability testing and demonstrations will be held for the U.S. Air Force
and will be conducted at Anderson Air Force Base located in Yigo, Guam for the projected period of June
15, 2017 to July 31, 2017.


To allow testing over various HF propagation conditions, various frequencies between 10200 kHz and
24460 kHz have been selected.1 Harris believes that no harmful interference to any incumbent licensees
which may be operating on these frequencies will occur. However, to the extent necessary Harris will
use its best efforts to avoid and minimize any potential interference. Harris further recognizes that if any
interference to existing licensed stations occurs, any transmissions will be subject to immediate shut
down.


Because the equipment is technically incapable of providing station identification, Harris respectfully
requests a waiver of the station identification provisions of Section 5.115 of the Commission's rules, 47
C.F.R. § 5.115. All network traffic will be simulated traffic only, solely for evaluation purposes and not
for the purpose of providing network data communications services to user stations.


Harris submits that a grant of an experimental STA is necessary and in the public interest because it will
1) advance HF wideband waveform development and 2) it will advance national security efforts by
providing technologically advanced radio equipment to US troops abroad.

  Harris obtained a regular experimental authorization which includes these frequencies as well as many others under File No.
0292-EX-PL-2016, Call Sign WI2XIZ, however that authorization does not authorize experimental operation on Guam.
