Hi

A lot depends on weather it's 50 ns right out of the spout (1 second samples
or what ever) or if it's a couple day average. There are a number of odd
things that happen with the sunrise and sunset.

Which indicates to me that they are pretty damn serious, and not
just catering to some recently discovered VIP Loran-C users.

I'd be very surprised if LightSquared nuking GPS reliability doesn't

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
