Kevin, My personal best on an LEO is Norway to Japan - (FO-20 in 1997). Depending whether you classsify AO-7 as a LEO bird - (with an orbital height of 1400Km) - the current record there is 7500 - 7700Km, by several stations. You may have been only interested in FM satellites, to9 which I have no idea. Hope that helps somewhat. 73 John. <[email protected]> EU-Amsat founder/moderator.
