There are at least two types of satellites whic are used for communications. The first type is in a stationary, geosyncronous orbit about 22,500 miles from the surface of the earth. Geosyncronous means that the satellites move at the same speed as the earth rotates, and so remain stationary above a fixd spot on the earth. These satellites are owned and operated by commercial enterprises. It is my opinion that they would take a dim view of your attempts to use their equipment for you own purposes. I also think it would be difficult to find enough technical information to do this succcessfully.Originally posted by onair@Mar 22 2006, 05:24 AM
I'm a student of kad poly in nigeria, and wanted to undertake a final year project on digital satellite. don't know if i can get any technical overview.
