Don't forget they ran L/V (23cm up / 2m down) for a short period in January 2009.
Unfortunately few takers, I think only three of us in the UK.

Hi. Mode VU suffers from interference at the atellite from illegal use of 2m for taxis etc. Mode VU has a higher path loss on UHF from the satellite to ground Mode A has issues with higher noise levels and the size of antenna required on the satellite. But, I agree mode A would get a lot of interest from people with HF + 50MHz equipment. - HF antenna = prototype deorbit system?? or 2 x ferrite rods at 90 degrees on receive Thanks David G0MRF _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
