>they should have caught this 5-10 years ago They mostly did. They've been warning about this for 3+ years now (see this report from the FCC back in September and October 2019) https://ecfsapi.fcc.gov/file/102214765103/AVSI%20RA%20Interim%20OOB%20Interference%20Report.pdf https://ecfsapi.fcc.gov/file/102214765103/AVSI%20RA%20Interi... They couldn't have warned folks about more than a year or so sooner than that, because the spectrum bands for 5G hadn't even been fully decided prior to it. (The public notice of band reconfiguration only got announced back in May 2019)

  The aviation hardware was compliant with the FCC rules (transmitting only within 4.2-4.4 GHz). FCC didn't specify anything about received interference, and didn't apply any of the methods used elsewhere in the world to limit leaking by 5G towers in 3.8-4.0GHz range.
