                                                                                          Exhibit 1
                            Description of Proposed Modification

Rockwell Collins, Inc., a part of Collins Aerospace (“Collins”), respectfully requests
modification of its experimental license with call sign WE2XVZ to add an experimental weather
radar to the license. This radar is located in Melbourne, Florida.

If approved, Collins will use this radar consistently with its current experimentation under this
license: to provide advanced weather radar solutions designed to enhance the situational
awareness of aircraft through weather avoidance information and to enable operators to provide
safe, comfortable air transit. Through this experimentation, Collins also seeks to leverage its
existing radar technologies to develop new, low-cost ground-based weather radar solutions.
Such systems could enhance safety and efficiency in areas where existing higher power weather
radar systems do not provide complete coverage or where no weather radar solutions currently
exist, such as remote oil, gas, or mining operations, secondary airfields, and sporting and other
public events that have the potential to be impacted by local weather phenomena.

Operations will continue to be limited to activities contemplated under the Commission’s rules,
including technical demonstrations of equipment or techniques, demonstration of equipment to
prospective purchasers, testing of equipment in connection with production or regulatory
approval of such equipment, development of radio technique, and limited market studies.
