                            Request For Special Temporary Authority



         Northwestern College ("NWC") ié'the licensee of a group of noncommercial religious

AM and FM stations in the Midwest. NWC originates programming for these stations at its

broadcast center located in Roseville, Minnesota. In order to deliver this programming to its

stations, many years ago, NWC licensed a Ku band transmit earth station to operate at the

broadcast center. This earth station was licensed under the call sign E0O20301, (expiration date:

12/04/2017).

         During a recent internal review, NWC discovered that on June 26, 2012, it had

inadvertently surrendered its Radio Station Authorization for E020301. NWC had intended to

cancel the authorization for a dismantled earth station facility, but instead mistakenly

surrendered the E020301 authorization.

         EQO20301 has continued in operation since June 26, 2012, and remains an integral

component of the NWC radio network.

         Having discovered its inadvertent error and recognizing; that its earth station facility

requires a new authorization, NWC will prepare a new station Form 312 for filing as soon as

possible. In the interim, NWC hereby requests Special Temporary Authority to operate.the earth

station facilities formerly authorized under call sign E020301 (see Attachment 2). The STA will

serve the public interest by allowing NWC to continué to provide its radio stations with

programming that is essential to their broadcast services to the public.
