SO-50, AO-51, VO-52 Transponder Frequencies and Rig settings

The best way to work Amateur Satellites is to program your radios memory with the up links, down links and any necessary PL tones required to activate the Transponders.

Here is the result, which if you are new or are just getting in to Satellite Communications, you may find the frequencies shown helpful. The rig seen in the pictures is an FT-847.

Thanks Paul, and the 6btv did work very well from 40-10m but was poor on 80m.

Hope you get some SAT Kit soon, it will be a pleasure to work you.

Good luck with the mobile/portable 6btv set up. All the best!
