[AMSAT-BB] Re: Linear Tuning and Doppler

Stephen E. Belter said (in part):

So the inverting transponders are “easier” because you don’t have to tune as far across the entire pass, 26.6 kHz vs. 13.4 kHz. “Easier” isn’t “easy”. “Easy” is computer controlled. (Grin)

With a little practice, it's not all that hard. I never used any form of computer control of the radio and made thousands of SSB contacts on linear satellites. And yes, the inverting transponders are easier as Stephen explained.
