Narrative Explanation of Operation and Frequency Coordination Exhibit


The purpose of this experimental authorization (STA) is to test a digital data telemetry system
that will be used in connection with NASCAR automobile racing events. This initial test, at the
Watkins Glen race track will test the operation of this new system for race vehicle to pit crew
data concerning the race vehicle over short ranges during the race.

The dates of the tests will be June 24-28, 2015 inclusive. The location will be at Watkins Glen,
New York at the International Raceway there. The street address is 2790 County Route 16,
Watkins, Glen, NY 14891. The coordinates of the track are 42°20′13″N Latitude and
76°55′38″W Longitude.

Required are two, 10 MHz channel bandwidths and low-power transmissions using
omnidirectional antennas.

Proposed is the use of the bands 2280-2290 MHz and 2390-2400 MHz for this test. The ultimate
deployment of this telemetry system, should the tests produce positive results, will not be in
either of these frequency bands but these two segments in particular are useful for test purposes
only.

Operation in the band 2390-2400 MHz will be coordinated in advance with the American Radio
Relay League, Incorporated in view of the use of an Amateur Radio allocation.

Should any interference be reported, the tests will cease immediately unless and until the
interference is resolved to the satisfaction of the complainant incumbent licensee.

The on-site “stop buzzer” contact is Mr. George Grippo, whose e-mail and telephone contact
information is as follows: ggrippo@nascar.com ; 704-701-3578.
