Globalstar Urges No Launch Spectrum Allocation

Expressing concern about interference to its mobile satellite service from inter-satellite links (ISL), Globalstar said in docket 13-115 Friday that FCC experimental licensing procedures are an efficient way of accommodating the few launch vehicle/satellite links that seem likely for the L band, and opposed L-band allocation for ISLs. TechFreedom said the growth of the commercial space industry needs protection of current space spectrum allocations and asked the agency to allocate more spectrum where possible for space uses.
