Es'hail-2 QO-100 Narrowband Transponder

Post by G8GKQ » Mon Feb 11, 2019 9:56 am

The Narrowband transponder has been switched on for testing this morning. Whilst there are some stations ignoring the request from AMSAT-DL to leave the transponder free for the testing activities, we request that other stations do not join in until the transponder is declared open for general use.

However, the increased noise floor provides a good check that you are receiving OK.
