PURPOSE
This request is being submitted to support a command and control link test. This Special Temporary
Authorization request is required to test and operate a command and control data link in the S-Band. This
requirement is being submitted in lieu of a Special Temporary Authorization extension under FCC Call
Sign WM9XPZ and File Number 0528-EX-ST-2018 but requires fewer locations than previously
requested.

OPERATIONS DESCRIPTION
The equipment will be installed in a Ground Control Station (GCS), and provide a command and control
link from the GCS to the aircraft. Ground testing will be at Bingen, WA indoors, followed up with airborne
testing at Boardman, OR. The equipment utilizes a small set of preset frequencies with limited flexibility in
frequency selection.
