[amsat-bb] Recordings of FO29 Field Day passband...?

[Andrew Glasbrenner]

I've recorded and posted SDR recordings and screenshots before. Might be
more accessible for folks as a simple youtube video tuning from one end to
another....of course, most of the time everyone is piled up in the middle
20khz.

Unrelated, but it would be great if someone with a good satcom station
recorded the passband of FO29.  Not so much to get individual QSO's but to
grasp what a full wideband transponder can carry.

IE, tune the passband from one end to the other at a constant rate.

Then again, and again, and again at the same rate.  Maybe separate files for
each scan so we can tell when a complete scan begins and ends.

This would give those who are unfamiliar with wideband linear transponder
operation what the capability really is under FD loading...

Just a thought.
