THANKS! ----------- Forwarded Message begins here ------------ From: Geoff Day Date: Wed, 14 Sep 1994 07:39:08 -40975532 To: Multiple recipients of list SATEDU-L Subject: Re: Recieving Pictures Assuming that you have also built the feedhorn with the correct antenna for 1691Mhz you will need the following: a - a downconverter to change the signal to 137.5Mhz b - cable to a receiver (137.5Mhz) - receiver can be combined with demodulator c - a demodulator to change the signal into a digital code d - software to look at the images The downconverter will need a power source. There are several suppliers of these items - I have personally used many of them and can only recommend QFAX for ease of use , reliability and quality of hardware. I do not work for them!
