Special Temporary Authority application - Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
There is a shortage of broadcast auxiliary spectrum and LTTS channels for video production at two major golf tournaments. Applicant has contracted with a major broadcast network to provide video for broadcast of these tournaments, which requires a large number of video channels at each venue. Use of ITFS channels for video transmission and use of a vacant television channel at each venue for FM voice transmission to coordinate video production at each hole during and preparatory to the golf tournaments is necessary. The applicant will coordinate all FM voice operation in the television band with the local Society of Broadcast Engineers Frequency Coordinator prior to initiating operation, and will make arrangements with all ITFS licensees in the area prior to initiating operation. This same authority was obtained for the PGA and NEC golf tournaments during the past several years, each time successfully and without any interference issues at all.
