Re: Good riddance Smokey, neither you nor "John McClane" apparently understand How Radio Works. (Hint: Regurgitating LightSquared's wildly inaccurate assertions as to How Radio Works does not constitute "Understanding How Radio Works.") Nor, apparently, do either of you understand how frequency allocation/planning works, either. (Hint: Whining about the alleged "unfairness" of frequency allocation/planning, just because it doesn't work to ones advantage, does not constitute "understanding.")
I, on the other hand, having been in radio for over 40 years, including terrestrial and satellite microwave communications, do understand How Radio Works. Having held both FCC Advance Class Amateur and FCC Commercial licenses, I also understand how frequency allocation/planning work.
LightSquared's plans were a massive Fail from the get-go. I knew it. Anybody that knew the least bit of How Radio Works knew it. I'm certain FCC's engineers knew it, and FCC granted the conditional waiver only under political pressure from above. (Research "Barack Obama" and "LightSquared" to get an idea where that might've come from.) |

That is very obvious. I get the feeling the money behind lightsquared didn't have a clue, either. I'd hate to be an engineer at that company! Beating your head against the walls all day - knowing it's never going to work....
said by BF69:said by FBGuy:it is susceptible to transmissions outside the frequencies used for GPS. The very reasons that lightsquared is getting the axe.
Lightquared is getting the axe because they wanted to use the frequencies for purposes other than they were intended. If Lightsquared had used the frequencies like they were supposed to there would be any interference. Well said. This is in a nutshell. |

Bingo! I too saw this as NEVER flying, the radio interference from the get go was demonstrated time and time again. Engineers and the FCC mentioned it multiple times. Also thanks for pointing us to the following article about Obamas ties to this fiasco:

Makes a lot of sense now. Seems to me this is going to be the next brilliant Solyndra Goof by our highly capable US President (Oh boy)!

I am wondering is there anyone in Washington that is out for the best interest of the citizens and country? Or is the BIG Government and Super Pac Donation(s) where the country is Bankrupt dept rating dropped in the Land of Lincoln (Illinois) where Obama left the state in shambles as a Senator with his unconstitutional Obamacare plan... I wonder.
And it's not just the Democrats, it's this idiot too Lamar Smith (r) Texas. The ranking member of the subcommittee on Science and Technology with his brilliant idears for the internet(s).

Oh Geeze Clearly the McCain Feingold campaign reform act isn't working and hasn't worked.

It doesn't take a genius to work out why these things are not an issue in other developed countries, because their equivalent agencies have the authority to do their job.
This is GOP 101 at it's best anyway, allowing business to do whatever it pleases, in the name of the mighty profit for the few.

Another moot point is the superpac considering it was RWer politicians that allow corporations and conglomerates to form superpacs. It's RWer SCOTUS judges that allowed a corporation to share the same rights as an American.
A senator doesn't decide state fiscal policy and his health plan was not in place during that period either.
I am surprised you found time to write something when you could be listening to Alex Jones or Ventura. |

Solyndra went bankrupt because Congress cancelled a promised loan, and China has subsidized its solar companies with $40 billion in fresh capital last year alone. Chinese solar companies have been dumping their products onto the market to drive out competition.
Not every investment is going to work. In venture capital 1 out of 100 investments turns out to be successful. The government didn't even "lose" $500 million. They still make their money back on whatever capital Solyndra owns after it is all sold.
Whining about less than $500 million, while the "defense department" spends $700 billion/year, is the definition of hypocrsity. |
