Any comments from the wider audience?

I talked with a park ranger who had used a high-precision GPS system which decoded the selective availability encrypted signal. Access to the device was very tightly controlled and it had a control-meta-shift-whoopie which erased the key should the device be in danger of being captured. And this was a relatively low security device.
