  • Cross-posted video from my main channel (Because it is HAM related)
    This is the start of a bonus video series and probably not for everybody. We will build a satellite station to reach the geostationary QO-100 Amateur Satellite 36’000km away. In the end, I should be able to talk to other amateurs using this ground station.
    First, I did not plan to make this video, but many of my viewers asked for it. And, because such a complex project will cover many areas, you might profit from one or the other episode even if you are a typical maker and no Radio Amateur.

    Absolutely! Getting that 200km on 800MHz is already mindboggling. 36.000km on 2.4GHz is .. wow. I remember some guys using regular Linksys wifi 2.4GHz routers and a high gain antenna to cover 382km in 2008 I believe, so this is in a completely different league.

    • @HB9BLA
      @HB9BLA  2 роки тому +1

      Here we use smaller bandwidth. So it is easier. Plus the satellite is very sensitive.

    • @Luke-san
      @Luke-san 2 роки тому

      'easier' :-) We will see. Really looking forward to it Andreas.
      For me this feels like communication to the Voyager satellite that you are trying to do. Maybe I should get my license again and see what it's all about lately.

    A couple of years back the local ham radio association in my city organized a call with antartica (via internet), it was very nice experience but now this gets interesting to get to talk to them via satellite.
    International Space Station is much closer but talking to astronauts would be more hyping. Just saying...

    WOW!!! Are your aims following Moore's law? If yes, what can we expect in 2023??? It seems to me that at least Flight to the Moon!

    Why you reupload videos? At least tag these as reuploads, so I know what videos I must watch amongst all these reuploads.

    • @HB9BLA
      @HB9BLA  2 роки тому

      You see the difference: The re-uploaded are with hat and the picture on the left and the new ones are without a hat, my portrait on the right side, and a different shape of the title.
      I re-upload the HAM-related videos of my first channel because I expect many different viewers on this channel (the topics are quite different). And it is mentioned in the first line of the comment.

      @@HB9BLA see, usually I have no problem recognizing French (not that I speak on it), but I would have never guessed if not your comment (:
