Amateur Radio Satellites

Posted on May 28, 2019 by Plentipeppa

Kenwood TH D72

Today, May 28th 2019 I got a taste of ham radio satellite communications.
Using just a handheld Kenwood TH D72 dual band radio, I was able to hear my call sign being repeated by another ham radio operator.

Unfortunately I was unable to correctly copy the operator’s call sign.
This was my very first time trying to communicate via satellite, by the way, that satellite designation was AO 92 with a downlink frequency of 145.88 mhz and uplink frequency of 435.35 on FM.
