             Dear Sir:

                    Pursuant to §5.204 of the Commission‘s Rules, WinStar Wireless, Inc. (WW1I)
             hereby submits a 6—month progress report on the results of its experimental program
             operated under §5.202 (f), (i) & (j). This nationwide experimental license was granted in
             two parts, on January 31, 1996, and March 19, 1996.

                     In its request for experimental authority, WinStar proposed to conduct a program
+~~          of experimentation and demonstration of the capabilities of point—to—point transmissions
             in the 38 GHz band (38.6—40.0 GHz). WinStar currently provides wireless
             telecommunications services in its 43 licensed areas. WinStar believes that it has and
             will continue to develop the market and applications in the 38 GHz band by using its
             experimental authority to study and test operations in new market areas and varied
             deployment scenarios.

                     As of July 31, 1996, WinStar has deployed eight (8) tests in three (3) markets
             under its experimental license. These operations are relatively new and extensive data on
             their success is not yet available. WinStar has received no reports of interference with
             existing licensed operations and has no adverse incidents to report.

                    To date, the experimental license has afforded WinStar the opportunity to
             demonstrate the capability and reliability of its 38 GHz point—to—point systems. WinStar
             has consistently utilized Commission—approved equipment and standard operating and
             engineering practices WinStar believes that the public interest has been well served to

 date by its operations under its experimental license, and submits that continued
operations under its experimental authority will serve the public interest, convenience and
necessity.
