> Hello folks,

is suggested to use the main band for downlink reception and the sub band
for the uplink. This because the reception in main band is better instead of
sub receiver.

Hi Mario, IK1ZQJ

I have a TS-790 but I don't use it for satellite. By the way in this
transceiver the MAIN band can be used both for TX or RX but the
SUB band can be used only for RX
