Yes, very likely related considering that the map from the NOTAM is
published on the engadget site. :-)
The questions I implied are twofold:
Firstly (idle curiosity) - does anyone have further publicly
divulgable details on what's apparently a terrestrial jammer test or
maybe an operational exercise involving the Bermuda Triangle and
making planes and ships disappear...
Secondly (operationally motivated) - I'd be interested to hear of any
issues experienced by folks using GPS as a (terrestrial) NTP
discipline source.
