** SHUTTLE COMMUNICATIONS **
****************************
EVER WONDER HOW NASA CAN HEAR THE VOICES
OF THE SPACE SHUTTLE ASTRONAUTS FROM JUST
ABOUT ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.
WELL, SURE THEY HAVE TRACKING STATIONS ALL
AROUND THE WORLD BUT, THEY ALSO RETRANSMIT
THE SHUTTLE COMMUNICATIONS USING SHORT-WAVE
(SW), FREQUENCIES.
THE FOLLOWING IS A LIST OF FREQUENCIES THAT IS
ASSIGNED TO NASA FOR SPACE CRAFT COMMUNICATIONS
USING THE SW BAND.
*******************************************
SHORTWAVE FREQUENCIES (MHZ)
*******************************************
2.622 ----- 6.693 ----- 9.042 ----- 13.227
2.678 ----- 6.708 ----- 9.132 ---- 13.600
3.850 ----- 7.461 ---- 10.780 ---- 14.397
3.860 ----- 7.675 ---- 11.205 ---- 14.896
5.180 ----- 7.910 ---- 11.407 ---- 20.186
5.190 ----- 8.972 ---- 12.160 ---- 20.197
5.350 ----- 8.981 ---- 12.277 ---- 20.198
5.810 ----- 7.765 ---- 13.170 ---- 20.390
******************************************
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE CURIOUS ABOUT THE
SHUTTLES MICROWAVE FREQUENCIES, HERE THEY ARE
******************************************
S-BAND MICROWAVE FREQUENCIES (MHZ)
---------------------------
-- SHUTTLE-TO-GROUND --
2205.0 2217.5
2250.0 2287.5
-- GROUND-TO-SHUTTLE --
2041.9 2201.4
******************************************
PROBABLY THE BEST SHORTWAVE FREQUENCY TO
USE DURING THE FLIGHT IS 10.780 MHZ. CAPE
RADIO'S PRIMARY UPPER-SIDEBAND (USB) CHANNEL.
A SECONDARY FREQUENCY IS 20.390 MHZ IS ALSO
A GOOD BET, AS ARE THE FREQUENCIES FROM
20.186 TO 20.198 MHZ.
******************************************
******************************************
OTHER SUGGESTED CHANNELS TO LISTEN TO FOR
INFORMATION ARE, DEPENDING ON PROPAGATIONAL
FACTORS, AND TIME OF DAY ARE 5.350, 5.180,
7.675 7.910, 9.132, AND 11.205 (MHZ)
GOOD LUCK AND GOOD LISTENING........
