[amsat-bb] Modern Equipment Matrix

[John Geiger]

I will second the suggestion of the Kenwood TM-V7A.  I had one for a while
and it did well on the satellites, a very sensitive receiver.  Another one
which is good for the Mode J satellites is the Kenwood TM-251A.  It is a 2m
transceiver with UHF receive.  Has one of the most sensitive receivers on
UHF ever tested in the QST product reviews.  Heard the FM satellites very
well.
