Everyone: A genuine newby to satellites, I plan to get QRV with U/V bands as soon as I can (likely few months yet) due to difficulty procuring the orbital ring rotors required to clear the trees at my QTH.
My goal is to work as many DXCCs over time as possible (and probably WAS too). Given this goal, is L-band helpful (will there be even 1 or more new DXCC QRV on L-band that is easier or not workable on U/V) vs. conventional U/V bands or should I stick with U/V given my interests/goals?
Thank you 73,
Dave KJ9I

Like most Sundays UTC it is in L/v mode, with an uplink at 1267.358 or so.

Hi all, Is it my receiver or has the uplink on AO-92 gone silent or not receiving any uplink. I wan't able to access on the previous pass, and no access on this pass (at 10.24 NZtime). AO-85 is ok I could access that with a 4 degree pass ok 30 minutes ago.
