Re: [amsat-bb] 10 GHz uplink AO-40

["Don Woodward" <dbwoodw@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The 10GHz (X Band) on AO-40 is only a downlink and it's status is unknown
with "more tests to do".

See http://www.amsat-dl.org/journal/adlj-p3d.htm for a status on the various
systems.

Just resubscribed to the amsat-bb due to my increased activity on AO-40.


Was wondering if anyone has tried to use the 10 GHz uplink on AO-40 and
what is
required to get there. I plan on using 1 watt into a 1.2 meter dish.

Please Note : I have a very late start in the activity because of the
fact I am on the west coast and have a
minimum dish elevation of 20 degrees. This is why I think I miss most of
the activity during the activity weekends.
