[time-nuts] light squared test

2011-05-18 Thread tom jones

The local NBC news in las vegas reported tonight (5-18-11) that next week, 
piolets flying at night may find gps unreliable or unuseable do to lightsquared 
testing broadband internet equipment in a frequency band adjacent to gps 
frequency.  And that las vegas falls within a 350 mile radius of this testing..

Anybody have anymore info on this test. I've been reading posts here on 
timenuts about likely interference to gps receivers . And  the fcc rushing 
license's for lightsquared. But I wasn't aware of any tests.  Does anyone know 
where lightsquared is testing its transmitters that las vegas would fall within 
lightsquared's 350 mile radius.
