Special Temporary Authority application - Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
This regards a request by Broad Comm, Inc. (Broad Comm) for Special Temporary Authority (STA) to allow use of frequencies in the range form 476.250 to 481.750 MHz (within TV channel 15). These frequencies will be used to provide provide logistical support and aural coverage for televison network presentation of the Boston Marathon and realted events between April 16 and April 21, 2008. No interference to existing televison operations or other users is anticiapted due to the low power proposed for this use (maximum 25 watts ERP). A search of the FCC televison database shows no authorized full service TV stations on channels 15 within 200 km of the proposed location. In addition, the nearest authorized co-channel LPTV station is 170.7 km for the proposed loaction. Broad Comm provides radio-frequency support services to broadcasters and broadcast network entities for coverage of major events. The FCC has granted Broad Comm and others similar requests for several previous events. In that there are significant logistics involved in covering such an event, the network will need the use of frequencies above and beyond those normally avaialble for their day-to-day production activities.
