FCC Blows Off Warnings AGAIN from Meteorologists, NASA, NOAA and Navy About 5G Interfering with Weather Forecasting

Activist Post reported about this last month too. Many media sources did and continue to do so. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) blows off everybody’s concerns about 5G– even security experts who say
5G is not just for refrigerators,” Spalding said. “It’s farm implements, it’s airplanes, it’s all kinds of different things that can actually kill people or that allow someone to reach into the network and direct those things to do what they want them to do. It’s a completely different threat that we’ve never experienced before.
Killing people is not what the FCC is supposed to do. They are not a health, environmental, or weather-forecasting agency. However, they are supposed to protect the public by regulating the Telecom Industry.
Now back to the FCC blowing off meteorologists, NASA, NOAA and Navy:
WASHINGTON — The chairman of the Federal Communications Commission defended the use of spectrum for 5G wireless services while a key senator called for a hearing on potential interference such services could have with space-based weather observations.
At a hearing of the Senate Commerce Committee June 12, FCC Chairman Ajit Pai dismissed claims that 5G services operating at the 24 gigahertz band could interfere with weather observations and thus degrade the accuracy of forecasts, saying studies that made those claims were flawed.
“Over the last two and a half years we have patiently waited for a validated study to suggest that our proposed limit is inappropriate. We’ve never gotten such a validated study,” he said on one of several occasions during the two-and-a-half-hour hearing when the subject came up.
He said the commission did receive a study that made such claims. Once the FCC’s staff obtained the source code for the modeling that estimated the potential interference, “the assumptions that clearly underlaid were so flawed as to make the study, in our view at least, meaningless.”
Pai’s comments were the latest salvo that has pitted the FCC against the Department of Commerce and NASA regarding use of the 24 gigahertz band for 5G services. Commerce, which is the parent department of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and NASA have argued that allowing use of that band for 5G services could create interference with satellite observations of water vapor used in weather forecasting.
