From the Ham Radio community a warning the FCC has authorized a new broadband wireless network who's frequency is very close to the GPS signal frequency. GPS manufactures believe that strong signals from this new system could jam GPS and make it next to useless for navigation.
A fix could cost billions and no one has figured out who will be responsible for paying for that fix. Meanwhile the FCC claims that is will block the implementation of the new network unless there are assurances that it will not interfere with the GPS signal.
Since the FCC has already authorized the service I am in doubt as frequency's are sold and are a real money maker for the government.....
