light squared wants to use spectrum that they paid for.

They didn't pay for it. SkyTerra got it for free and LightSquared bought them out. What LightSquared really wants, according to industry analysts, is a frequency swap for more valuable spectrum WITHOUT having to pay for it. They are basically holding GPS hostage in the hopes the government will pay them off with frequencies that could otherwise be auctioned off.

I am COMPLETELY fine with that. For once in my life I agree with openbox. How many subsidies have AT&T and Verizon benefited from? Let's subsidize a competitor for once.
