Let me get this straight:
Flex 1500 $650 Flex 3000 $1700
Plus transverters:
L144-28HP $480
L432-28HP $500
That's $3,330!!!!!
The info and concept might be good, but that's it.
Get a Funcube Dongle Pro+ (wish AMSAT NA would negotiate a deal with Howard and sell them to raise funds) if you want a SDR receiver and an FT847, TS2000, IC9100 and you are miles ahead.

All,
Flex has an interesting article on using two rigs for full duplex operations using SATPC32.

Look for: A Full-Duplex VHF-UHF Satellite System using FLEX radios
While some of the article is specific to Flex radios, there is an excellent discussion of considerations for transverter LO frequencies which is relevant to most rigs.
