Re: [AFMUG] Scary Product...

Speaking of Iridium. That was only 77 satellites; at least in the original version. How about something like 4400(+) satellites for Starlink? Now that looks "scary".     (warning, we are getting into thread drift) How it will work:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEIUdMiColU bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 11/14/2018 11:04 AM, ch...@wbmfg.com wrote: How about iridium control.  Or geo sync data link.  Inmarsat.  Antenna would be looking up.  Harder to jam.    From: Gino A.
