40,000 GPS coverage holes? By Tim Queeney Mar 22, 2011 12:00 am Lately a coalition of GPS companies and user groups called Coalition to Save Our GPS (CSOG) has formed to protect GPS signals from the possibility of interference from a wireless Internet access company called LightSquared. The wireless firm has plans to deploy a reported 40,000 ground stations that will transmit on a frequency adjacent to that used by GPS. According to CSOG, the LightSquared signals will be "one billion times more powerful than GPS signals as received on Earth."
