From today's telcom trade press:
The FCC said late today that the International Bureau is proposing
to vacate LightSquared, Inc.'s conditional authorization and
indefinitely suspend its ancillary terrestrial component (ATC)
authority in the wake of the National Telecommunications and
Information Administration's recommendation that LightSquared's LTE
(long term evolution) network can't operate as planned without
causing harmful interference to government GPS (Global Positioning
System) receivers.
This is just a brief summary of a long article that has some nuances
that are not represented here. The FCC intends to release a public
notice tomorrow. It is not necessarily over, but it is looking better.
Here is a link to the FCC Public Notice:

The FCC has asked for comments, which are due by March 1. Note that
LightSquared says it will keep fighting:
