One big advantage of using these signals is the effect of weather on the transmission of these signals, which of course, is none. In this day and age of satellite tracking, there are a number of uses for GPS and while the L1 signal is used purely for civilian purposes, the L2 signal is used for military purposes and which is obviously stronger than its civilian...
