                          Request for Special Temporary Authority for
              Testing of Southbury, CT Teleport 13.1 Meter C-Band Hub Antenna
                              Utilizing Low Power CW Carrier to
                       Communicate With IS-903 Satellite at 325.5 W.L.

               Airbus DS SatCom Government, Inc. (ASGI) requests a grant of Special
Temporary Authority (“STA”) for testing of a 13.1 Meter C-Band Hub Antenna located at its
Southbury, CT Teleport (identified as SBY20) utilizing a CW Carrier to communicate with the
IS-903 Satellite at 34.5 W.L. ASGI also hereby requests a partial waiver of the frequency
coordination requirements for purposes of the testing for which STA is sought.

        The requested partial waiver is only to the extent that this requirement is for a report
specifically prepared for SBY 20. ASGI is respectfully requesting that the coordination
requirements for purposes of the testing STA be satisfied with a Frequency Coordination and
Interference Analysis Report for a nearby Hub Antenna (identified as SBY 24). SBY 24 is sited
nearby SBY 20 within an area bounded by 1 second of latitude and 1 second of longitude on the
grounds of the Southbury teleport and the power and other specifications used for the SBY24
frequency coordination are comparable to that to be used for the SBY 20 testing. The SBY 24
coordination report is therefore being attached to the STA application to satisfy the coordination
requirements for purposes of the SBY 20 testing STA.

        No other waivers are needed or requested for testing of the antenna and the antenna fully
complies with all Commission Regulations. All technical characteristics and parameters for the
testing follow on the next page. Grant of the STA is in the public interest because the purpose of
the testing is to help prepare the antenna for operations which will support the Federal Aviation
Authority Wide Area Augmentation System.

        Accordingly, ASGI respectfully requests that the Bureau grant the STA for a period of
thirty days beginning August 3, 2015. Any questions with respect to this matter may be directed
to James G. Lovelace at 703 466 5945.
