I am all for going after Hussein for all his crony-corruption, and I was all over this when it first arose, but people who should know told me that there are no interference problems if the GPS receiver equipment is designed properly.
A lot of current GPS equipment is not designed to properly filter out adjacent frequencies, but it should be, and can be.

According to john bolton, if other countries could see the spectrum interference thats caused and could get access to that technology theyd copy it and use it against us
Filters applied to protect such signals failed 31 out out 33 tests.
This is a very big deal.

GPS existed first, properly filtered or not. The moment the interference problem surfaced the lightspeed frequencies should have been denied. The FCC should be on top of this and not release frequencies that will interfere with previously existing technology to this potential. INstead Lightspeed arrogantly acts like it is the existing technologie’s responsibility to change and spend tons of money to do so - and the FCC sits on it’s thumb. Meanwhile the Obama adminstation touts the forced GPS modifications and money spend as a great example economic development and adding jobs. That’s apparently how those doorknobs think, (if you can even pretend there’s rational thought involved).
