Do you remember the RS sats back in the 90's? I seem to remember there was two, RS-6 and RS-10. Russian birds that had input on a small slice of 2 meters and the downlink on 10 meters. It was great fun and you could work stations almost cross country on a good pass, even some caribbean DX! To send respectable sounding CW, I built a crystal oscillator for (I think was 12 mHz) and then multiplied it up for that specific 2m band frequency (thanks to the Doug Demaw books), and fed into a 20 watt 2m amp. It was pretty cool, tracking stations with the doppler shift during the pass. With the available bandpass, a CW hundred stations could be on at the same time. Why do you think we don't have a similar bird today?

Great video, packed with great tips!. Are you just using the camera app to record or are you using a specific audio recording app?

I am glad that you enjoyed the video. That is a great question. I use an iPhone, I use this App apps.apple.com/us/app/voice-recorder-audio-record/id936694037?platform=iphone. Any recording app will do, but I like this App since I can slow down the audio. Sometimes call signs are said so fast, it helps slowing them down. 73, Paul
