The article is super light on technical detail but I think what they're saying is: The 12ghz spectrum has been allocated to satellite services which have very low power signals at the receiver. Both SpaceX and Dish have bands within 12ghz. Dish has asked for permission to use its 12ghz spectrum for 5G which has a relatively high power terrestrial signal. SpaceX is calling foul: the spectrum was allocated to low power satellite signals and high power signals don't play well near low power signals... particularly when a bunch of the transmitters are cheap consumer equipment that may bleed some of that power into adjacent spectrum. Now someone with more knowledge please tell me how close I got. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William Herrin bill () herrin us https://bill.herrin.us/
