24 of these satellites are currently in use (the remaining 3 are
backups if any satellite fails). Each satellite is positioned at an
altitude of 12,000 miles from the earth and makes two complete
rotations every day...

The number of actively broadcasting satellites for NAVSTAR is at the moment
over 30.
The reverred article contains a lot of inaccuraties. One of the worst "A GPS
receiver calculates the exact position ... by using the SIGNAL STRENGHT from
each satellite", which is totaly nonsense, this is not the only inaccuraty.

The guy is a spammer. He has used Google Page Creator to make these
pages, then uses Google Groups to spam them to Usenet. He is on his
third incarnation. Google has canceled his first two accounts. Report
his posts and his page to abuse@google.com. Not the Google group
address. Dave Null reads that address.
