Re: Re: [amsat-bb] Will GALILEO render S-band downlinks unusable?

["CU8AO" <fredf@xxxxxxx>]

Hi, 
As far as i know,actual GPS system is at 1575 mhz.If you try to receive there, even with NBFM, you will get a lot of noise, very annoying.You can clearly hear modulation.
To be optimistic, i hope that will be only one more segment of our band that we lose.
what´s next?
