Verizon and AT&T will start using their C-band 5G signals this coming Wednesday, January 19th, after the FAA agreed that some airplanes can fly through zones covered by 5G signals.

Verizon and AT&T have had to wait to use the C-band mid-range licenses they won at auction because of possible interference issues between the mid-band signals and instrumentation on commercial aircraft. The altimeter, which tells the pilot how far off the ground he has the plane flying at, is one of the important instruments that a pilot relies on when landing a plane, especially when Visual Flight Rules don't apply.

Overall, 1,400 flight restrictions were announced by the FAA although the announcement made on Sunday exempts or partially exempts some airplanes from having to follow these orders. Despite the exemptions, the FAA warned that more restrictions are possible including some that could limit how 787s are able to land in the presence of 5G signals.

5G Galaxy S22 Ultra tipped to arrive with 1TB storage optionIt looks more and more as though Samsung is bringing back the 1TB storage option on the Galaxy S22 Ultra model even while cutting the amount of RAM on the base unit.
