Antenna for 1.2 GHz or 2.4 GHz AND 4800/9600 baud telemetry/packet
I monitor 2.4 GHz on a regular basis. Most satellites on 2.4 high speed data down only when directly over their control stations. The University of Georgia satellite is getting ready to orbit a sat mid October, but it will also be a very high baud rate. The only satellite of interest is DTUSat-2 at 2.401835. It's intermittent and only works in ellipse. It sends a cw signal. A SDR is a good thing to have. Bottom line is that there's not much going on up there. I miss the AO-40 days.
Thank you K4KDR. I'm about ready to throw in the towel with AGWPE, AGW Online KISS. I'd love to capture some KISS frames, but it has so far eluded me.

Michael,
How much terrestrial interference do you see from the myriad of 2.4GHz devices? (WiFi, BT, ISM, etc.)
