At a guess, they are probably testing how well the system would work for the military if the signals were encrypted, as they probably would be in the event a terrorist group or foreign military were thought to be about to launch an attack using GPS-guided weapons. ---Original Email--- Subject :Re: [OSM-talk] Watch out if mapping in Florida, Georgia... >From :mailto:si...@mungewell.org Date :Fri Jan 21 11:01:06 America/Chicago 2011 > GPS might not work; > > http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/01/20/unavailabe_gps_warning/ > Similar NOTAMS issued for the west cost too Also https://www.notams.jcs.mil/dinsQueryWeb/displayGPSWAASNotamAction.do -- 01/019 (A0009/11) - GPS NAV GLOBAL POSITION SYSTEM PSEUDO RANDOM NOISE 25 U/S. 24 JAN 21:00 2011 UNTIL 25 JAN 09:00 2011.

[Talk-us] atoning for sins
Alright, okay, I'm feeling guilty for blowing off last night's meeting after we'd made special effort to reschedule. My apologies to Rich and Ian, who I left in the lurch. The rest of you...well, your excuse is as flimsy as mine. ;-) Shall we make another stab at rescheduling?
