[amsat-bb] 1.2Ghz signal sources

[Paul Stoetzer]

The ITU Radio Regulations restrict the amateur satellite service
allocation at 1260 MHz - 1270 MHz to earth to space only.
Domestically, the FCC has implemented that restriction in Part 97.

I'm using an Alinco DJ-G7T and a 16 element yagi myself. It's not
quite enough for horizon to horizon access, but I've made 54 QSOs on
AO-92 in L/v mode with it.

73,

Paul, N8HM
