[amsat-bb] AO-51 V/S

Heard this evening so far on V/S: VE3NPC KB1RNI N3MVF AJ8P KC9ELU AK5V

I made an interesting recording of the S band transmitter last pass with WinRad and my SDR-IQ. The signal peaks about 45 db above the noise! This is with a 3 ft dish with a patch feed, preamp at the feed, and keps.it downconverter to a hamtronics converter to the -IQ.

I'll make the recording available to anyone who'd like it, and the software to play it is available for free at http://www.winrad.org/ . The catch is it is about 530Mb. Maybe someone has a website they would put it on? Otherwise if you want it, send me a SASE and blank CD or DVD and I'll make a copy for you.
