    The purpose of this Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D is to
amend Everest Capital Limited's (the "Reporting Person") Schedule
13D dated November 27, 1995 relating to ownership of the Common
Stock, par value $0.01, of WinStar Communications, Inc. (the
"Shares").  Based upon the total number of 26,651,773 outstanding
Shares as of November 30, 1995, the Reporting Person is deemed to
beneficially own 4.93% of the Shares.  Capitalized terms not
defined herein are as defined in the original Schedule 13D.

Item 1.  Security and Issuer

         No change.

Item 2.  Identity and Background

         No Change.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

         No Change.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transactions.

         No Change.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of Issuer.

         (a)  Assuming immediate conversion of the Notes, the
              Reporting Person beneficially owns 1,366,054
              Shares, representing 4.93% of WinStar
              Communication, Inc.'s (the "Issuer") outstanding
              Shares.  This figure is based on a total of
              26,651,773 Shares outstanding as stated by the
              Issuer on November 30, 1995.

         (b)  The Reporting Person will have the sole power to
              vote and to dispose of the 1,366,054 shares upon
              converting the Notes.

         (c)  All transactions in the Shares effected by the
              Reporting Person since the Reporting Person's most
              recent filing on Schedule 13D on November 27, 1995
              are set forth in Exhibit A hereto and are herein
              incorporated by reference.  Each transaction listed
              was an over-the-counter transaction, except for the
              December 28, 1995 sale of warrants and the December
              29, 1995 conversion of Notes, each of which was a
              privately negotiated transaction.

         (d)  No change. 



                                4

         (e)  The Reporting Person ceased to be the beneficial
              owner of more than 5% of the Shares on January 11,
              1996.

Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or
         Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

         The Reporting Person utilizes an arbitrage strategy to
         realize disparities between the price of a security and
         a convertible security relating to that security.
         Accordingly, the Reporting Person has entered into
         arrangements to sell 386,685 of the Shares.  The
         Reporting Person otherwise has no contract, arrangement,
         understanding or relationship with any person with
         respect to the Shares.

Item 7.  Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

         None.





         After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge
and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this
statement is true, complete and correct.

January 16, 1996
