What to expect
- Always up. No passes, no Doppler, no tracking. Works like an HF band that is always open.
- Visible from Europe, Africa, the Middle East, India and eastern South America. Not from North America.
- Requires a 2.4 GHz uplink (a few watts into a dish) and a 10 GHz satellite TV LNB for receive.
Gear: 2.4 GHz transverter + dish, Ku-band LNB, SDR receiver.
