  10. VHF-DSC and GPS • More education is needed • Recreational users are not registering in appreciable numbers • DSC radios are not being programmed with MMSIs • GPS units are not being interfaced to the radios • OBTAIN a MMSI • PROGRAM your radio • HOOK UP your GPS 27 Jan 2012

  11. LightSquared • Issue: LightSquared LLC has purchased spectrum for terrestrial and satellite-based Wi-Fi • $4B invested since 2004 • Through spectrum swaps and waivers, plan to develop 40,000 terrestrial stations in the L band, just below GPS frequencies • GPS is 90 dB below LS signals • Effectively shuts down civilian GPS over most urban areas • FCC has received thousands of comments; stay tuned 27 Jan 2012

  12. SC-101 DSC Radio • SC-101 is a RTCM standard for VHF-DSC • Inexpensive radios • Lesser capability, e.g., one receiver • Looser tolerances on electronic standards • USPS has always recommended Class D • 25 Mar 2011: Prohibition on manufacture, importation, sale and installation [of SC-101] fixed mount VHF • 47 CFR 80.225(a)(4) • 25 Mar 2012: Prohibition on manufacture, importation, sale and installation [of SC-101] handheld VHF Bottom Line: Don’t buy a SC-101 radio 27 Jan 2012
