                           FCC File # 0165-EX-ST-2006

As requested by the FCC, this document provides additional measurement data related to
the transmit out-of-channel emission (“OOCE”) and out-of-band emission (“OOBE”)
transmissions of the WiNetworks base station (“BTS”).

Figure 1 provides the spectrum density measurements of the BTS at the output of the
power amplifier (“PA”). We have also attempted to collect measurements at the output
of the cavity filter, but the signal level was so low at 1550.00 MHz and 1558.50 MHz (at
noise level), that the results became inaccurate. As such, we are providing the spectrum
power density measurements along with the cavity filter performance characteristics
(Figure 2). Tables 1 and 2 provide OOCE and OOBE analyses based on data obtained
from the power spectrum density measurements and filter performance characteristics.
As indicated, the BTS OOCE and OOBE levels are well below the FCC’s maximum
allowable levels. 47 C.F.R. §§ 25.253(b), 25.253(c)(9).
