I feel quite bad for people living in the United States. Despite the constant refrain about freedom y'all are actually pretty hindered when it comes to reasonably priced EVs. On Saturday I put a down on a BYD Shark 6 truck. Hopefully I

I don't think most of this data is published, but you might be able to get access to AMSAT-DL data from their 20m dish in Bochum. https://amsat-dl.org/en/20-meter-antenna/

Oh dear, you're correct. the 60cm antennas are on the sats themselves. Still, I might be able to get enough signal to see carrier, and maybe more given they'll be coming at us instead of going away next time around.

I look forward to Escapade Blue and Gold returning, I plan to have a look at them with my X band setup. I'm running a 1.2m offset, which is significantly larger than the 60cm Daniel was using here.

I'm a Starlink user technically, but haven't had my service enabled for over 3 years. People like me might help account for this discrepancy.

The US DoD has stated it plans to stop disseminating products from the DMSP constellation that is critical to hurricane forecasting by August. The SatDump team has since spent significant efforts to build out the decoder.

Sorry, but the widely accepted definition of a technical recession is typically identified by two consecutive quarters of negative growth in real gross domestic product (GDP). Tuesday is the cut off date for the quarter and that will determ

The stock is down nearly 34% this year. Would you be happy with those metrics as an investor and/or board member? If the CEO of a company you invest in decided to alienate the majority of said company's customer base, would you be

The primary reason for SpaceX having such a high launch rate is Starlink/Starshield. These launches are largely identical to one another, and are targeting LEO altitudes. The above comments are factually correct. Historically ULA has

And I guess the other thing to mention is that x band data often adds up real quick, so it's nowhere near as prevalent in full resolution online. I'm basically surrounded by forest and only get sync on Chinese LEO sats at maybe 35
