                           Exhibit 1: Information on Experiment

Purpose of Experimental STA Request
SRC is requesting an Experimental Special Temporary Authorization for the purpose of radar
waveform testing in a semi-arid environment. Our requested dates are for a six month period
ranging from August 1, 2014 through February 1, 2015.

Locations
SRC will be operating up to six (6) SRC-3554 Radars between the following two locations:

                                                      Radius of           Number of
           Location        Latitude/Longitude
                                                      Operation            Radars
                              37°21'40.00"N
          Merced CA                                     10 km                  4
                             120°22'40.00"W
                              37°23'28.91"N
        Patterson, CA                                   10 km                  2
                              121° 5'7.53"W

SRC-3554 Frequency Requirements
A single SRHawk (SRC-3554) radar requires only one frequency within the 16.21-16.5 GHz
operating band of the system to operate. If more than one radar is used each frequency must
be separated by are at least 50 MHz. Our experiment will utilize:

                                                  Number of            Total Frequencies
                        Number of Radars
      Location                                 Frequencies used           needed for
                        to be used (up to)
                                                   per Radar           Experimental STA
    Merced, CA                  4                      1                        4
   Patterson, CA                2                      1                        2

Operating Schedule
The operating schedule SRC will use for the SRC-3554 Radar during the course of the
Experimental STA grant is:

                 Schedule Times                                       Date
 Start Date of Experiment                                        August 1, 2014
 Stop Date of Experiment                                        February 1, 2015
 Daily Operation during Experiment                    Intermittently Up to 24 hours per day

Interference Mitigation
The SRC-3554 radar can blank transmissions from 0 and 360 degrees in azimuth if necessary
to protect other services that may be operating.

Cease Buzzer Point of Contact
SRC understands that operation will be on a secondary non-interference basis. In the event
interference complaints were to occur, SRC has taken preventative measures to cease and
desist from transmission until they can be resolved. SRC has established a Cease Buzzer point


of contact to quickly react with any interference complaints that are the result of our system.
The point of contact for the SRC Cease Buzzer is:

                Point of Contact                   Telephone Number
                 Cease Buzzer                         315-452-8114
