Default GPS Satellites...

Does anyone know or have any information about renting/leasing GPS air space?? I've had a hunt around the net and cant find anything! I presume it will need to be rented off of one of the biggee companies like Marconi's or something. (Like Blackspot renting space for the road angels).

Any info would be great!!

Not sure i understand the question really.


GPS devices can all see the existing sats free of charge anyway, what is it you are trying to do?

GPS belongs to the American Military. So when they turn it off in a decade or so time. Everyone will be stuffed.

I guess you want to promote your business through a TomTom so when someones near they get a little sign on the display?

You have to approach the reciver manufacturers and pay a subscription. Just like Petrol Stations, hotels etc
