Hello to the AMSAT brain trust. I am new to satellites and have a new person question:
> Is there any way to utilize a WIFI (2.4 GHZ, 13cm) USB dongle (with SMA ant. port) into a gain antenna, and successfully receive the S-band downlink from AO-51? This is a 13cm transceiver, but I suspect the answer is no. I already have a 24db gain dish, so I thought I would ask. Outside of WIFI, is there anything useful I can do with this dongle? The more conventional units (transverters, receivers, etc.) are a bit spendy for me right now. thanks. paul ac0z _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected].
