Please note the following dates.
On June 7, 9, 21, 23, 28, and 30th the GPS interference testing will be taking place between 9:30am and 3:30pm Pacific time.

What IS the Government testing? Secret California tests to black out GPS for six hours a day
Advisory warns ‘all aircraft relying on GPS’ over the area may feel effects
'GPS interference testing' may disrupt signals as low as 50 ft above ground
It says that GPS signals may be ‘unreliable or unavailable’ for hours

The US government is conducting a series of mysterious tests on the West Coast that could disrupt GPS signals for hundreds of miles around.
In a document published this weekend, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued a flight advisory for six days this month, when the ‘GPS interference testing’ will occur.
The first event takes place today, and could render GPS signals as low as 50 feet above the ground ‘unreliable or unavailable’ for hours.
Sincerely,
Lisa Mitchell

I even got her email but why?
Why it is happening without much explanation from the Government. Is this a military, California, or Federal GOV interference testing? I have a feeling it is a precursor to shutting down some drone activities around Cali in the future.

Wow! What a lousy response to an internal issue. It's amazing some people keep their jobs.

They're happy that they're not responsible for the concerns... Hah!!!
Then why isn't it happening to all GPS equipped cars?
