 ISEE-3 microwave filter requirements

   The 64 m subnet is committed to support the International Sun Earth
   Explorer (ISEE-3) spacecraft. The uplink and one of the downlink
   frequencies will be respectively, 2090 and 2217 MHz. As these two
   frequencies fall outside the normal DSN transmit and receive bands,
   the 64-m antennas present new filter requirements, which are analyzed.

 From Emily Lakdawalla of The Planetary Society:

"So ISEE-3 will pass by us, ready to talk with us, but in the 30 years
since it departed Earth we've lost the ability to speak its language. I
wonder if ham radio operators will be able to pick up its carrier signal --
it's meaningless, I guess, but it feels like an honorable thing to do, a
kind of salute to the venerable ship as it passes by."
