[amsat-bb] Satellite Radios

[Jim Jerzycke]

And for some *real* oldies, the Yeasu FT-736 and FT-726, as long as it 
has the satellite module installed, and the Kenwood TS-790.


I have both the TS-790 and FT-847. I've never tried the 790 on 
satellites, but for terrestrial use, it has a better receiver (quieter) 
than the 847.


I run my 847 under SatPC32 control, which I also use to control my 
rotors through a Fox Delta interface box.
