                                                            EXPERIMENTAL STA APPLICATION
                                                            FILE NO. 0670-EX-ST-2016


                      EXHIBIT 1 - REQUEST FOR SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORITY

Harris Corporation ("Harris") hereby requests Special Temporary Authority (“STA”) to conduct testing and
military observed on air 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 on air demonstrations
and testing will be held for U.S. Army personnel and will be conducted at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds
facility in Aberdeen, Maryland during the week of June 6, 2016 to June 10, 2016. The end date of the requested
STA term has been entered as June 13, 2016 to account for any possible delays.


To allow testing over various HF propagation conditions, a number of frequencies between 6 and 22 MHz have
been selected.1 Any transmissions on the noted frequencies will be of short duration. 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.
