Great article on how COVID-19 is impacting long-running clinical trials of new treatments for #Alzheimers. Trials are being slowed or delayed and fewer possible participants are being screened. https://t.co/yMoaADHcDP @GAP_Foundation @saoverman

Dozens of firms & aviation groups including @LockheedMartin, @TrimbleCorpNews and Airlines for America will ask @FCC to reconsider letting Ligado Networks use satellite spectrum for ground comms that could interfere with GPS. @DeptofDefense opposes the recent FCC decision.

[Dee Ann Divis @DeeAnnDivis]

If #GPS receivers are tracking satellites they can provide fairly accurate position info -right up to when interference makes them lose satellite lock. @FCC is using harmful interference standard -- the point position accuracy is impacted. Safety margin? https://t.co/G3khFLdvjw

[Dee Ann Divis @DeeAnnDivis]

@FCC has released its Ligado decision. They disagreed with Air Force belief that @LigadoNetwork ’s commitment to repair /replace affected equipment is not feasible, saying interference to gov't GPS receivers is limited and manageable." https://t.co/pgh2WKsjLA

[Dee Ann Divis @DeeAnnDivis]

@FCC has approved 0-5 a controversial request to use frequencies neighboring the #GPS band for 5G. Testing has shown the plan by @LigadoNetworks could interfere with GPS. It is opposed by DOD, DOT and many other agencies

[Dee Ann Divis @DeeAnnDivis]

Nearly two dozen organizations including airlines, aviation manufacturing interests, aerospace companies and others have filed a letter with the FCC asking that the pending Ligado applications be dismissed.

LETTER 4 of 5: "and they are necessary for trillions of dollars in financial transactions in the stock markets. The functions provided by our GPS satellites will be all the more important to enable a rapid economic recovery from the effects of COVID-19." #GNSS

LETTER 3 of 5: "...space launch and space operations, weather, construction and mining vehicle guidance, as well as surveying and mapping. These satellites contribute $1 billion to the economy every single day," (a conservative estimate) ... #GNSS https://t.co/nHzjRGXpqU

LETTER 2 of 5:"GPS satellites quietly power our economy by providing free precise timing and navigation to our financial and banking sector, agriculture, our logistics and tourism companies, our power grid and cell phone businesses, commercial aviation,..." #GNSS

LETTER 1 of 5: GPS is vital to US economy, lawmakers wrote to @realDonaldTrump Wed. night. Senate Armed Services Chair @JimInhofe, Ranking Member @SenJackReed and House Armed Services Ranking Member Mac Thornberry asked Trump to intervene re Ligado #GNSS https://t.co/nHzjRGXpqU

[Dee Ann Divis @DeeAnnDivis]

@AjitPaiFCCi is circulating a draft proposal to approve @LigadoNetworks request to use satellite spectrum for 5G. Tests have shown the plan will interfere with GPS receivers. Rumors had been flying but this is a concrete move using FCC process. #GNSS https://t.co/NSI9Ks4S4z

With the lack of smell or taste now ID'd as a symptom of COVID-19, I've urged my wife to bake some cookies and get some ice cream so I could see if my smell and taste works. She just rolled her eyes.

Drones may become a key tool for reaching homeless Californians camped in hard-to-reach areas with information about how to avoid getting sick from the coronavirus and how to access health resources if they fall ill. https://t.co/PZiD7mOytK #drones #UAV #UAS #drone #UAVs #police

A Kickstarter campaign is raising money to develop a battery monitor that can be added to existing batteries. With BatMon a drone pilot can track #battery health and remaining capability while in flight. https://t.co/jdiNPKnb6J #drones #UAS #UAV #drone #batteries
