Philip Falcone seems to be Fighting Back. Seems to me that Senator Grassley flat out lied about the events and issues surrounding Lightsquared. Read the Philip Falcone Lightsquared Letter from legal council regarding Senator Charles E. Grassley's accusation, which seem to be false, fabricated and completely biased to protect his buddies at John Deere, Verizon, ATT, Clearwire, and Lockhead Martin.

Philip Falcone. LIGHTSQUARED AND GPS – THE FACTS. The GPS Industry had a Decade to Upgrade and now they are STOPPING fair competition to save them MONEY. Senator Grassley NEEDS to Wake Up to the Facts.
"For the last decade, LightSquared has planned to deploy a terrestrial network, and worked with the GPS community to make sure its network would not interfere with GPS.
LIGHTSQUARED’S SERVICE HAS BEEN EXPECTED FOR ALMOST TEN YEARS
· In 2001, LightSquared proposed using satellite spectrum for a fully-capable ground network. In 2002, after discussions with the GPS industry representatives, LightSquared agreed to curtail any portion of its signal that crossed into GPS frequencies. This agreement imposed restrictions that were 1000 times stricter than what the FCC rules eventually required.
· In 2003, the FCC adopted initial rules allowing LightSquared’s ground network to operate near GPS. These rules were adopted after a full review by DoD, FAA and all other interested government agencies. As the FCC said recently, “extensive terrestrial operations have been anticipated in [LightSquared’s spectrum band] for at least 8 years.” FCC MSS Flexibility Order, ¶ 27 (Apr. 6, 2011).
THE GPS INDUSTRY UNDERSTOOD THE SCOPE OF LIGHTSQUARED’S NETWORK
· The 2003 rules allowed LightSquared to deploy over 10,000 base stations.
· In 2003, the U.S. GPS Industry Council (“USGIC”) stated that the restrictions of the 2002 agreement were necessary to protect GPS against “[t]he increased user density from potentially millions of MSS mobile terminals operating in ATC mode . . . [and] potentially tens of thousands of ATC wireless base stations.” Reply Comments of USGIC, IB Docket No. 01-185, at 2 (Sept. 4, 2003) (emphasis added).
· In 2004, the USGIC supported the LightSquared application for authority to operate a ground network under the 2003 rules, stating that the 2002 agreement was “intended to protect GPS receivers and at the same time allow [LightSquared] to maximize the utility of its ATC [ground network] service to its users.” Letter from USGIC to FCC (Mar. 24, 2004).
· In 2005, the FCC removed all limits on the number of base stations LightSquared could build and increased their permissible power to 1.6 kw, the level at which LightSquared now plans to operate. Again, this decision was reviewed by all interested government agencies and was not challenged by USGIC.
· Beginning in 2006 and continuing to 2010, LightSquared disclosed its intent to build a wireless network using tens of thousands of base stations in its annual filings with the SEC.
THE GPS INDUSTRY KNEW ABOUT LIGHTSQUARED’S PLANNED POWER LEVELS AND DID NOT OBJECT
· In 2009, LightSquared asked the FCC to increase the power levels of its base stations by approximately 10 times to 15 kw, to match the power levels at which other wireless networks are permitted to operate.
· USGIC did not object to even those higher power levels. It objected only to the possibility of interference into the GPS band from low-power indoor femtocells, an objection it withdrew in August 2009 after reaching agreement with LightSquared.
· In March 2010, the FCC approved LightSquared’s increased power levels. As with all previous FCC proceedings, the order was issued after a public proceeding and was fully coordinated with all interested federal government agencies. Neither GPSIC, nor any other party, filed for reconsideration or review of this order.
· Also in March 2010, the FCC required LightSquared to build a ground network reaching 260 million people by the end of 2015. Neither GPSIC, nor any other party, filed for reconsideration or review of this requirement.
LIGHTSQUARED IS DOING EVERYTHING IT CAN TO WORK WITH GPS TO ADDRESS ISSUES RAISED ONLY A FEW MONTHS AGO
· In September 2010, USGIC raised for the first time — in a general mobile satellite proceeding -- the possibility that some GPS receivers may be subject to interference because they can be overpowered by signals transmitted by LightSquared inside the spectrum the FCC licensed to Lightsquared.
· In November 2010, LightSquared applied to allow devices onto its ground network that do not also communicate with its satellite. This application did not change the power, number, deployment or any other technical characteristic of LightSquared’s base stations. USGIC raised the same objection it raised in September.
· Although the interference issue was irrelevant to this application, LightSquared, in January 2010, proposed a rigorous program of testing to determine the extent of the susceptibility of GPS receivers to LightSquared’s transmissions, which the FCC made a condition of granting LightSquared’s application on Jan. 26, 2011.
· The FCC validated the GPS testing process a few weeks ago by unanimous Commission vote, noting USGIC’s September 2010 comments and the cooperative testing program, and stating that “responsibility for protecting services rests not only on new entrants but also on incumbent users themselves, who must use receivers that reasonably discriminate against reception of signals outside their allocated spectrum.” FCC MSS Flexibility Order, ¶ 27 (Apr. 6, 2011).
Look Deep at what Senator Grassley is Up to, he is Connected to Monsanto, John Deere, and Verizon. Do your Homework.

TerreStar Networks Inc. Bankruptcy - What is the Real Story. Philip Falcone - LightSquared, Charles Ergen EchoStar - Dish Network.
More on the Massive Smoke and Mirrors in the Wireless, Broadband, Satellite Subscription, Spectrum Bankruptcy Drama over TerreStar Networks Inc. AND DBSD North America.
Were their Inside, undisclosed Connections and Conflicts of interest with Echostar, Charles Ergen, Dish Network or With Philip Falcone, Harbinger Capital in Connection with Bidding on Bankruptcy Assets of the DBSD North America Bankruptcy or the Terrestar Bankruptcy ?
Why Today is TerreStar Networks Inc REALLY backing off of EchoStar (Dish Network) Plan? I believe there is a whole lot more to this Story? Political Favors, Bribes ?? Pay Offs ?? Conflicts of Interest?? Inside Information..
http://www.bizjournals.com/denver/news/2011/02/17/report-terrestar-drops-echostar-plan.html
I Believe that from my "Investigations" of Craig McCaw, the Founder of DBSD North America, CO Global Communication, XO Communication and Clearwire Corp. - I Believe there is inside information and their is Money that will be made from Insiders Like Craig McCaw.
As it is Said that AT&T Will Buy Dish Network AFTER they Gain Control of DBSD and Terrestar, this affected stocks as a rumor already. Craig McCaw is VERY Connected to AT&T I believe Craig McCaw is in on all this and will Make Billions, and that No Where near ALL has been disclosed in just how "IN" Craig McCaw really is.
******
What Part Does Phillip Humm, T-Mobile - Really Play in ALL this?
CLWR - Clearwire Corporation (NASDAQ), EchoStar Corp-A (SATS:US), DISH - DISH Network Corp. (NASDAQ), HUGH Stock, SPRINT NEXTEL CORP (S:US, T-Mobile USA Inc, Walmart (WMT),Hedge Fund Alert, TerreStar Corp (TSTR), Eagle River Investments LLC, The BlackStone Group, Taconic, Taconic Capital Advisors LP (450 Park Avenue), T- Mobile,
, Deutsche Telekom (DTEGY),Arik Preis of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feldas, US:S - Sprint Nextel Corp. , NASDAQ: LORL, Bernard L. Schwartz
The Latest on the DBSD North America Bankruptcy seems to be that Charles Ergen, Dish Network, Echostar will buy DBSD North America for 1 Billion Dollar and that once this DBSD North America bankruptcy buy is complete then AT&T will buy Dish Network, Echostar, and DBSD North America. Was there any Secret Handshakes, Back Alley Deals, Conflicts of Interest or Inside Information on this one? I Say THERE Certainly had to Be.
EchoStar Got Hughes, so Does Lightsquared Get TerreStar? I mean it is all a game for Zillionaires Right ?
Who Really did Bid on DBSD and Terre Star ?
Were there Inside Connections, Information Leaked to Either Charles Ergen or Philip Falcone?
"Falcone’s LightSquared May Bid for TerreStar, DBSD"
IS Philip Falcone, Harbinger Capital, Lightsquared Bidding on TerreStar and DBSD or Not?
Does Charles Ergen - Dish Network, EchoStar or Philip Falcone, Harbinger Capital, Lightsquared have inside information that is not "available to the public" on the DBSD North America Bankruptcy or the TerreStar Corp. Bankruptcy ?
I Believe that from my "Investigations" of Craig McCaw, the Founder of DBSD North America, CO Global Communication, XO Communication and Clearwire Corp. - I Believe there is inside information and their is Money that will be made from Insiders Like Craig McCaw.
As it is Said that AT&T Will Buy Dish Network AFTER they Gain Control of DBSD and Terrestar, this affected stocks as a rumor already. Craig McCaw is VERY Connected to AT&T I believe Craig McCaw is in on all this and will Make Billions, and that No Where near ALL has been disclosed in just how "IN" Craig McCaw really is.
What About Today's Headlines of DBSD Scraps EchoStar Plan - What Does This Really Mean, and What Connections to the Blackstone Group 0r TerreStar do other "Bidders" REALLY Have?
Is this yet another Media staged event so you won't be surprised who gets the Bid and why?
Are there Really any "Whitehouse Favors" in any of this as suggested at one point by Ken Boehm - Chairman, National Legal and Policy Center? We know that The Whitehouse is "in bed with Intel" and that Clearwire is Heavily Connected to Intel, and that other bidders want to take it easy on Intel Corp - INTC.
Headlines Keep Saying, "Falcone’s LightSquared May Bid for TerreStar, DBSD" - I mean come on Did Philip Falcone Bid on TerreStar or NOT ? What is Really Going ON, Fully Documented Offers for TerreStar were Due Last Monday, Feb 7th Right ?

Also Note the Foley and Lardner Connection on Page 2
" Deutsche Bank National Trust Company as Indenture Trustee for the Debtors’ 6.5% Senior Exchangeable Notes and Foley & Lardner LLP as counsel to the Indenture Trustee
Foley and Lardner was involved in a 13 Trillion Dollar Technology Theft over the iViewit Stolen Technology. There is massive Proof of Corruption against Foley and Lardner and they to control the US Court System and Judges.
http://www.foley-lardner.com/
Intel Corp Uses this Technology and is So Far protected by Corruption U.S. Courts
http://www.foley-lardner.com/
Intel Corp Uses this Technology and is So Far protected by Corruption U.S. Courts
Time Warner, Warner Bros, AOL Uses this Technology and even signed per minute licensing agreements over a decade ago, as well as they Signed Non-Disclosure Aggrements, they have yet to be made accountable. The Time Warner General Counsel that KNOWS of this Massive Fraud is now the General Counsel at LightSquared ( Curtis Lu )
Is Anyone at the The BlackStone Group (Thomas Middleton or Daniel Chang, 345 Park Avenue NY) Connected to Insiders at DBSD North America, CO Global Communication, Clearwire Corp., AT&T, EchoStar, Lightsquared, Harbinger Capital (45o Park Avenue NY) ?

So a "Bondholder", can Bid on a Company in Crisis... Did TerreStar plan to go Down long Ago? what is the Real Back Story to the TerreStar Bankruptcy and the Ulimate Plan of WHO Really will Control TerreStar
Quote Below ...
" Billionaire money manager Philip Falcone 's big bet on a high-speed wireless network, which has led him to mortgage many of his flagship fund's key assets, could soon look even dicier as one of its cornerstone telecom investments teeters on the brink of bankruptcy, says Reuters.
Upstart telecom firm TerreStar Corp, which Falcone's Harbinger Capital Partners fund had invested in and which had been slated to provide some of the infrastructure for his ambitious satellite-based wireless network, recently warned that it lacks sufficient cash and financing to pay for all of its third-quarter expenses – which means it may have to file for a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy.
A TerreStar Bankruptcy filing could come soon if TerreStar can't reach a restructuring agreement with its bondholders, which includes funds managed by Falcone's Harbinger Capital Partners, said people familiar with the company's situation. "

So TerreStar did not "Reach" a Restructuring Agreement, and then the Bondholders involved in Terrestar Not Reaching An Agreement gets to bid on taking over the Company.
Did ANY of the TerreStar Bidders Receive ANY information that was NOT public or available to All Terrestar Bidders? I Think So... Matter Of FACT, I Allege So..

All this is boiling down to what you pay for your Satellite Subscription, your Use of Broadband - the Spectrum - the Internet. It Comes Down to Wholesaled 4G, Spectrum to Places like Walmart by folks Like LightSquared.
IS Walmart Teaming up with T-Mobile? Is Philip Falcone, Harbinger Capital Teamed up with T-Mobile and will Walmart be Selling "Spectrum" that they buy Wholesale from Lightsquared?
What Part Does Sprint Nextel Corp. Really Play in All this ?
