Hi All, < snip> > So, I have two questions. > 1) Should I be worried about damaging my rig (IC-9100) with the 2:1 SWR on AO-07 ? NO damaging to your rig will occur with a 2:1 SWR because the reflected power from the antenna to your rig will be only the 10% of the incident power. > 2) Will future satellites be in the 435 to 438Mhz range? YES > Thanks > Peter > G8KEK 73" de i8CVS Domenico _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?
