Aero-News Quote of the Day

“LightSquared’s supposed solution is nothing but a ‘Hail Mary’ move. Confining its operation to the lower MSS band still interferes with many critical GPS receivers in addition to the precision receivers that even LightSquared concedes will be affected. The government results submitted to date already prove this, and the study group report will also confirm this. It is time for LightSquared to move out of the MSS band.” Source: Statement by Jim Kirkland, Vice President and General Counsel of Trimble and a founding member of the Coalition to Save Our GPS.
