Yes, and the official line from the George Bush Center for Intelligence was that a mysterious unknown radiation was responsible for the “Havana syndrome” at multiple government facilities around the world.
Expressing doubts or ridicule about the Havana syndrome may result in an FBI SWAT team raid. So can claiming that 5G could be responsible for a syndrome of health effects.
I am waiting for what happens when the Russians put a new 5G installation next to the US embassy in Moscow. What will the official position be when government workers start to freak out?
I agree. So the FCC and/or the telecommunications companies should pay to upgrade the filters. It is their business that is disturbing the neighbors, not the airline’s.
The issues are typically with transmitters. Spurious emissions.
How often do you get your cell phone checked and calibrated and certified to have no spurious emission?
Here is what Aviation Spectrum Resources, Inc. had to say about it in 2011, ten years before any 5G C-Band auction.
FREQUENCY STABILITY OF EXISTING ALTIMETERS
The vast majority of all radar altimeters flying today are based on “open loop” linear Frequency Modulation of a Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) that operates at a center frequency of 4.300 GHz with frequency stability of +/-15 MHz over -40 to +70 Degrees C temperature variation that can occur aboard the aircraft.
Only the most recent altimeters used aboard all new aircraft such as the 787, A350 or A380 have digitally synthesized or reference crystal stabilized modulation. There are well over 10,000 aircraft flying with “open loop” VCO systems in their radar altimeters. These open loop designs are reliable and remain in full production as of this writing.
TOTAL REQUIRED ALTIMETER BANDWIDTH
In the paragraphs above we have indicated the various needs of operating frequency bandwidth to allow for each altimeter issue of altitude accuracy
The total bandwidth is: 164MHz Resolution + 10MHz Multiple Altimeter Offset +15 MHz Frequency temperature stability results in a total 189MHz with the remaining 11 MHz of bandwidth reserved for 5.5 MHz wide “guard bands” at the band edges to assure that the minor sidebands created by the altimeter do not intrude on adjacent band users and similarly to avoid adjacent band users that might otherwise interfere with normal altimeter operations.
So is the issue that the old transceivers receive the band they’re supposed to, but overlap into the band that was sold to the cell companies, because before 5G was a thing, they could pick up that spectrum without a problem because it wasn’t in use?
So it’s not the cell companies fault, it’s not the governments fault for selling the spectrum, but it’s the airlines fault for having equipment that encroaches on that spectrum to begin with?
