                                                    Request for Special Temporary Authorization
                                                          Pending FCC File No. IB2015001582


              REQUEST FOR SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORIZATION

On behalf of WFMY Television, LLC. (“WFMY”), licensee of broadcast television station
WFMY-TV, Greensboro, North Carolina, this is a request for Special Temporary Authorization
(STA) for WFMY to utilize a transmit-only satellite earth station while its application for a new,
temporary-fixed transmit-only satellite earth station remains, filed with the FCC on August 27,
2015, pending at the FCC (FCC File No. IB2015001582) (the “Pending Application”).

WFMY has recently decommissioned and replaced its former ENG truck, upon which a
temporary fixed transmit-only satellite earth station (currently licensed as E880835) was
installed and operated. Due to the decommissioning of the ENG truck, the associated temporary
fixed satellite earth station was also removed and decommissioned, along with other news-
gathering equipment. WFMY intends to operate a new transmit-only, temporary fixed satellite
earth station, applied for in the Pending Application, with the new ENG truck for continued
routine news-gathering operations and transmission of vital, news-worthy video to WFMY’s
studio for broadcast to its viewing community. In order to preserve its ability to properly serve
its community, WFMY requests temporary authorization to utilize the transmit-only, temporary
fixed satellite earth station referenced in the Pending Application and respectfully requests that
the FCC grant this STA pending the processing of the Pending Application. Upon grant of the
Pending Application, WFMY will cancel existing license E880835.
