The Kenwood radio on \nthe ISS transmits with something like 20 times the power that ARISSat-1 \ndoes! How well you hear the OTHER low earth orbit satellites like AO-27, \nAO-51, and SO-50 will tell you a lot more about the effectiveness of your \nsetup.\n\nThat being said, a preamp makes a HUGE difference.\n\nGeorge, KA3HSW\n\n----- Original Message ----- \n\n>> Hi,\n>>\n>> I've been listening on a couple of ARISSat-1 passes, both with the bird \n>> in\n>> sunlight.
