This doesn't make much sense at all. Why on earth would they license these frequencies to LightSquared if they didn't want anybody using them?


They licensed the spectrum for satellite comms, and LightSquared is trying to use a loophole to use it as (much more valuable) cellular LTE.


It would seem the problem is not use in it of itself of the frequencies, but rather the application of the frequencies for an LTE network.
