As
satellite equipment is getting cheaper, this might be a new interesting
area for radio enthusiasts, suggest Tracy Wood.
Go hunt those satellites
While medium wave and short wave DXers are faced with all kinds
of interfering noises, especially in these days of ADSL and cable
Internet connections, radio listeners might turn to parts of the
radio spectrum.
As satellite equipment is getting cheaper, this might be an interesting
area, suggested Tracy Wood in a starting presentation at this year's
Kulpsville Shortwave Listeners festival in Kulpsville, USA.
"Go
DXing with pictures", Wood said, adding:
One interesting aspect is that Russian companies are getting into
this more and more."
So go get it, before more of those eluding signals from space get
encrypted.
