Now I am trying to do the same for mine. Does anyone have any success or failure stories to relate which might be helpful? Is there something on that satellite channel all the time, or just during missions? Anyone know the truth of a rumor that there is something "funny" about NASAs use of the channel (what I heard was something like "they only use half the channel, so it takes special equipment to receive it". Is there something else on this same satellite that CATV companies will normally be getting, so they will have an antenna pointed there anyway? Thanks for any help you can give!
