According to the John Deere article, the higher performance GPS receivers, such as those used for agricultural application and IFR navigation have wider front ends to obtain more precise information from GPS signals. The LightSquared transmitters wouldn't pose such a problem if they were in orbit.
Regarding GPS receivers there today exist many different front-end approaches. In particular have single-bit and 1.5 bit samplers and direct samplers been used for many customer GPSes. The GPS receivers needed in E911 compatible phones is hardly done with lots of money, space and power-budget.

Bringing too quick shift of requirements onto the GPS receiver market would... well kill it. Some degradation would be tolerated.

Look forward to L2C and L5 capabilities to show up alongside Glonass L1...

Cheers,
Magnus
