L5 Demo Satellite Scheduled for Launch in June

The U.S. Air Force has scheduled the launch of the modernized GPS
Block IIR satellite that will host an L5 demonstration payload for
June 30 of this year.

According to a recent presentation by Col. Mark Crews, chief engineer
at the Air Force's GPS Wing, Los Angeles Air Force Base, satellite
Block IIR-20(M), dubbed SVN48, will be headed for orbital slot B2. It
is the second GPS satellite launch scheduled for the year; IIR-19(M),
or SVN49, has been scheduled for launch on March 13 and an orbital
slot of A4. The last modernized Bock IIR satellite, IIR-21 (SVN50),
is slated to head into orbit on September 11, 2008, into slot C2.

IIR-20(M) will temporarily broadcast a third civilian signal,
broadcast on the L5 frequency. Part of the modernization program for
GPS, the next round of satellites -- Block IIF and Block III
-- will incorporate the L5 signal, which will be reserved for
aviation and safety-of-life applications.

I was pleasantly surprised when I found a free map of Venezuela, it
simply beats the bottom of the commercial version (which is not even
routable and contains only *two* cities: Caracas and Valencia).

They have created a very active community around that map, with
forums, etc.

LONG LIVE OSS!!

But I digress...

Anywho... Enthused by the above, I am now looking for a map of
Colombia.

It's frustratingly not an option but we're pressing TomTom to add it,
especially as auto off is available!

GPS Insights -- January 2008
The real hook is the historical context and the revelations of the mysterious influences that drove the workings of the
"inner sanctum." The inventions and breakthroughs that came just in time are incredible. Each and every one was a piece
of the puzzle that has become the GPS we enjoy today.

A Review of "Global Positioning System -- Systems Engineering Case
Study"

When was the last time you sat down in your favorite chair, in a nice
quiet room with a warming fire in the fireplace and the snow falling
gently outside, to read your favorite government report? I mean, when
no one was holding a gun to your head? I can hear your responses now
(with the expletives deleted).

I'm new to laptops and gps sensors, just putting a
linux system together. Are there any slaved moving
map applications that use compass info from a gps
sensor or some other source?

I haven't heard of any so far.

Thank you Ken and who ever invented forums.

Ah hell of a lot of good honest reviews and info on them.
