First I heard of it, but a Google search comes up with this:

Maybe the government will pay us to change out our equipment like they did for 
Huawei basestations?  Just kidding, but we can dream.

US cell phones have GLONASS support.  What makes you say there's a legal 
question?

Some customers wanted the added redundancy that comes with more satellites.  
The irony of the thing which we changed to improve reliability biting one in 
the rear with this issue is not lost on me.

 

At this point, everything is going out with GPS+GALILEO since there is some 
question about if it is even legal to operate a GLONASS receiver in the USA.

What is the benefit to using glonass?

For timing is not GPS good enough?

Well hopefully most everything can be remotely handled.  

 

I'm really really hoping that the fix my current GPS vendor provided actually 
survives the rollover.  Otherwise this is going to be a much bigger mess. 

 

I really wish multi GNSS simulators weren't so expensive.   Like costs more 
than we make on syncboxes for a couple/few years expensive.   They're also not 
available to lease for any reasonable price.  As a result I get to trust that 
my vendor did exactly the right thing here. 

 

I'm hanging around the phone for the inevitable panicked call from the customer 
who ignored (or didn't get) all of the messages we sent out.
