They do?  Remember, it was the FCC that came up with the idea of 
using the Mobile Satellite Service L-band downlink spectrum for 
terrestrial broadband service in the first place (setting the stage 
for the LightSquared debacle).

IMO, the Communications Act should be amended to require at least one 
FCC Commissioner to be an engineer, so that there would be at least 
the theoretical possibility of technical sanity checks at the Commission level.

Best regards,

Charles
