Satellites

There are a variety of HAM Satellites and the International Space Station (ISS) that pass overhead daily.

AO-27

AMRAD-OSCAR 27 http://www.amsat.org/amsat-new/satellites/satInfo.php?satID=7 AO-27 transmits with a power output of 0.5 W into a quarter-wavelength whip antenna.

SO-50

Saudi-OSCAR 50 http://www.amsat.org/amsat-new/satellites/satInfo.php?satID=4 SO-50 is approximately 3 dB lower, into a quarter-wavelength whip canted inward at a 45-degree angle. SO-50 employs tone squelch (CTCSS) on its uplink, so set your transmitter for a tone of 67 Hz (also known as PL XZ). When it’s turned on, no CTCSS tone is required to access AO-27.
