A U.S. House panel plans to examine the Federal Communications Commission’s handling of LightSquared Inc.’s proposed wireless service, which has been stymied amid arguments about interference with navigation gear.

No date is set for the hearing planned by the House Subcommittee on Communications and Technology, Representative Greg Walden, the Oregon Republican who leads the panel, said today. Tammy Sun, an FCC spokeswoman, declined to comment.
