Hi David, The short answer is NO. But there are more to it than that :-)
I think I still have an article about that if you are interested. 73 OZ1MY/Ib -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] På vegne af David 4X1DG Sendt: 13 May 2012 18:31 Til: [email protected] Emne: [amsat-bb] Circular polarization Is a UHF circular polarization antenna needed for the current operational satellites? I am planning some work on my antenna system and wonder if the CP is needed, or actually, deteriorate the signal by 3dB if the satellites are using linear antennae?? _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected].
