Special Temporary Authority application - Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
EMG USA submits that there are extraordinary circumstances warranting a grant of the STA request. Alongi Media have contracted EMG USA to provide the necessary microwave for the Live Transmission of this event. Due to the extreme frequency congestion in Dallas, TX and throughout the United States, coupled with the added congestion from traditional television and news coverage of these special events, EMG USA requests the use of channels in the 1440-1485 MHz telemetry band. EMG USA certifies that the operation of the requested channels for the purposes specified herein will not cause interference to any established stations. EMG requires non-standard frequency band due to the extensive Part 74 spectrum utilization at this Republican National Convention event. This event necessitates making coordinated temporary use of additional spectrum in 1.4GHz band for LPAS operations. EMG USA is fully aware of pre-coordinating through AFTRCC. If any problems or interference occurs in these cities, EMG will shut down or shift frequencies. EMG will be very low power (100mW) and will have stop buzzers in place. Stop Buzzers: George Howson 240.422.2395 and Stephen Tobias 410.564.9291
