The starlink in my Forester is temperamental, sometimes the carplay won't work and it also causes glitches in the audio.
OHHH SpaceX starlink!
No, nobody knows nothing about it besides the FCC authorization https://www.fcc.gov/document/fcc-authorizes-spacex-provide-broadband-satellite-services which states "comprising 4,425 satellites in 83 orbital planes, at an approximate altitude of 1,110 to 1,325 kilometers...in the 10.7-12.7GHz, 13.85-14.5 GHz, 17.8-18.6 GHz, 18.8-19.3 GHz, 27.5-29.1 GHz, and 29.5-30 GHz bands." Fortunately that has zero overlap with any amateur radio spectrum.

The Wikipedia article is pretty good ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starlink_(satellite_constellation) ), far from nothing.
Their "production" launch is coming up, 60 Satellites will be deployed. May 16, 2019 02:30 UTC.
These two have been up for a while, however "they" say the ones that will be deployed are different.

A little more is known. They've pulled the orbit down to below 500, and are going to try to launch the first batch of 60 this week. It's all over the space related launch blogs and such. Elon even tweeted a picture of inside the fairing.

Wow i'm behind on the news. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1127388838362378241 - "Tight Fit" is the understatement of the year!
