It planned to build a high-speed terrestrial network and rent it out to others. But on February 14th America’s Federal Communications Commission (FCC) said no.The FCC’s announcement was prompted by a report from another government body, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), which concluded that LightSquared’s technology would interfere with navigation equipment used by planes and other moving things. The company protests that the testing process the NTIA has used is deeply flawed. It is hoping to convince the FCC to take the NTIA’s findings “with a generous helping of salt”.Its efforts are likely to prove futile because the FCC isn’t in a position to conduct its own tests. “I think the writing has been on the wall for LightSquared for a few months,” says John Fletche Leeds hooker Rob Burrow faces Manly (2/16/2012 10:28:43 AM) Leeds hooker Rob Burrow is hoping for some happier memories from Friday's World Club Challenge against Manly Sea Eagles after struggling to recall much of the last encounter.
