Hi all,
I'm wondering if a curious phenomenon that I have seen is related to the infamous TS-2000 SO-50 birdie. I thought I would see if I could make a contact on SO-50 with my TS-2000 even knowing about the birdie. I can certainly hear others during parts of the pass.
I did not hear anything so I punch up the arming tone, and oddly, I could hear both the tone (120-something?) and my voice totally clearly on the downlink frequency. I seriously doubt that I was getting into the satellite at that point.
So what is the symptom of the birdie? I thought it was just blanking out the Rx band over a certain range.
Any thoughts?
Thanks and 73,
