[amsat-bb] S band

[Jack Barbera]

Need a little help.
First I'd like to thank everyone for your answers to my question concerning ISS 
beacon.

I am all set to add L band to my station using my IC910 including Rohn 25 folder 
over tower to be mounted to the side of my house.  While I'm at it I wonder if 
it would make sense to add S band as well, if so, should I add transmitting as 
well as receiving capabilitie?  Should I use a two meter or a 70 cm radio 
knowing that two meter would provide less loss?  Any thoughts on this would be 
appreciated & most likley I will have further questions as I get into this 
project.  


Thanks for any input. Jack WA1ZDV
