That was +9.8 on the terrrestrial microcell transmitters,

Yes this seems to have been sold with the assurance that the magic brickwall 
filters with 100db/octave slope will be included in every one.

But the asian manufacturer of said devices will neglect to include them.... and 
juice the power a wee bit to say +23...    

Of course this will hose every GPS system for miles around and for those of us 
who fly our multi thousand investment in ADS-B will be rendered useless as the 
ADS-B still uses L1.    In our club’s Cessna 172 the new ADS-B in/out compliant 
radio stack was 20,000 as we are close to a lot of controlled airspace.


  I dropped a note to AOPA on this.   Because remember the entire airway system 
is now supposed to be managed by aircraft exchanging position, bearing altitude 
and rate of climb dynamically to each other and ground stations instead of 
todays radar based system.

And say goodbye to our GPSDO’s

Hi

Was that +9.8 or -98 dbm ? :)

At -98 they probably *could* coexist with GPS. Not real clear how well there
system would work at that level though.
