Arecibo and VLA aren't affected by starlink at all. Those are radio telescopes. They don't even need to wait until nighttime to observe. It's only an optical/ir problem.



Starlink uses radio to communicate with the ground. A common complaint from radio astronomers is new radio satellite operators promising to not interfere with radio astronomy and then making no effort to follow through in that promise.
