Ku Satelilte Band?
I have an old 1m dish and get wall-to-wall signals on a spectrum analyzer scanning the Geo arc.
Is there anything at all that anyone can do with any signals of interest without having special decoder rings for each one?
Experiments?
Bob
Bob,
Perhaps you could use it for moon bounce. You could at least listen to the DL0SHF 10 GHz EME beacon (http://www.pa0ehg.com/dl0shf_beacon.htm). It has been demonstrated to be doable with an RTLSDR dongle and and LNB: https://www.rtl-sdr.com/receiving-10-ghz-reflected-moon-beacon-rtl-sdr/ I hope to do something similar in the future, but I'm currently too busy and having too much fun with the LEO satellites.
