Hello John,
So far I've listened to a few of the OSCARs with the K2 and an old 70cm
transverter and it works very well. The main problem is using it for the
uplink - it won't change frequency while transmitting. Also it can only be
used for the SSB/CW birds. With a decent transverter it is an excellent
downlink receiver.
Despite all this, mine will get quite a lot of use when P3E and EAGLE get into
space.
