Re: [amsat-bb] Satellite QRB records

19 Nov 2015

      Paul,
now I haven't the log with me, I seen on LoTW online.
   When at home this evening I will see the note on the log so I can be more accurate with mode etc.

Thanks, Claudio.
I'll put your QSO with VK4ASB (16,337km) up for now unless someone has one better than that from AO-13. What mode was that? I'm assuming Mode B?

Hi,
I'm using formulas to determine the distance to the horizon from the
satellite, then the distance across the (curved) surface between two
opposite locations.
Again, it's meant for sea level. AO-7 solves with 7,858.478 Km which
is below the record of 7,947.381 Km. This is because the higher from
the sea level you are, the farther you are in the sat horizon.
I'll send you that list later today.

Thanks, Pedro. I've seen calculations for those distances before, but they
always seem to vary by method used. It would be a nice addition to put the
records in perspective.

Hi,
Thanks!
I'm compiling a list of the maximum possible QRBs for two targets standing
at sea level, and the max known sat altitude that I can find. If you'd like
that I can send it to you later.

This page is now live on the AMSAT website:

http://www.amsat.org/?page_id=4751
There's a link to it at the bottom of the Communications Satellites page.
Again, please claim records for other satellites if you think you may hold
the record!

currently existing. We could certainly create one on the AMSAT website!
This is what I can find:
AO-40 - 18,263km (I8CVS in JN70es and ZL1AOX in RF72mv)
AO-7 - 7,947.381km (KG5CCI in EM24uq01mu and EA5TT in IM99sl48cx)
FO-29 - 7,599.959km (KG5CCI in EM34st11tl and F4CQA in JN17ea22ot)
If anyone would like to claim records on any other satellite, please post
your claim. I will create a page with this information.
