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:
