 Re: Request for a 90 day Special Temporary Authority (STA)



Dear Mr. Blais,

         Pursuant to Section 25.120(a) of the Rules and Regulations ("Regulations") of the Federal Communications
Commission, Emmis Radio License, LLC seeks consideration for a request for 90 day Special Temporary Authority
("STA") to operate a new earth station in Indianapolis, IN.

        Emmis Radio License, LLC is requesting a 90 day STA to start satellite operations while their permanent FSS C—
band application (SES—LIC—20170719—00773 / E170133) is currently pending with the Commission. Emmis Radio License,
LLC does not have a terrestrial interconnection to their regional affiliated stations, that serve the public interest, and
therefore is requesting a 90 day STA to keep broadcast programming on the air.

        Emmis Radio License, LLC accordingly urgently requests that a 90 day STA be granted so that the reliable
broadcast service to the public in key regional areas can be satisfied and maintained forthwith.

         Thank you for your attention and help in this matter.




                                                                                      Sincerely,
