Dear Mr. Spirgel:

           Straight Path Communications Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “we”), has today filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Pre-Effective Amendment No. 3 (the “Amendment”) to its Registration Statement on Form 10 filed May 6, 2013 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”).

           We are writing to respond to the comment raised in your letter to the Company dated July 2, 2013. For your convenience, a copy of the Amendment is enclosed and has been marked to show changes from the Registration Statement filed June 26, 2013.  References to page numbers in our responses are to page numbers in the revised Information Statement attached to the Amendment as Exhibit 99.1 (the “Information Statement”).

1.           We note your response to comment eight and your disclosure that amounts due to the law firm that provides legal services to Straight Path IP with respect to the enforcement of its patents are recorded as selling, general and administrative expenses. To the extent that Straight Path IP’s litigation settlements are classified as revenue, it appears that related legal expenses should be separately classified as a direct cost of revenues. Please revise or advise us.

Response: We revised our financial statements and related disclosure in the MD&A to classify legal expenses that are directly related to revenues from litigation settlements as direct cost of revenues.
