VSAT Ku Band Manpack SatCom Communications

[@O0o0167]

I have been looking for guys like you. Thank you for making this channel. There is very few people who alter electronics or or what I like to say they mad Max them out.

Same

Haha this was sweet to see. Quick note though, the BUC (block upconverter) just converts from the baseband (modem output) L, C or IF band to Ku or Ka band for SATCOM. The actual power (the 65 watts) is supplied by a SSPA or HPA, in this case it could be either, just a signal amplifier. So from a signal level, it outputs from the baseband at a low power (limited by generation power of the baseband), goes through the BUC to upconvert to a higher frequency signal, then through the amplifier to reach a power level that can hit out to those 2200 miles away! Super cool stuff though, I love stumbling across vsat stuff on the interwebs! Used to do this stuff for a career for a while then got out of it!

Thanking you most kindly from England UK

[@mysticmarble94]

No idea what any of it does or is for but I like the retro rugged look of it very much 👏🖖

[@boboso5676]

This is dope af! I'd love to have this!

[@FutziGratz]

You're talking about private communications (between two stations like this, I suppose), is there a specific provider that grants the access to the satellite ? A subscription fee ? I'm interested in the details.

[@josephsaucedo8691]

That one sweat set up to bad I'm none of the above I'm sure you can do multiple things with this type of set up. Two of them would make a awesome easy long range point to point access system that for sure 💯👍📺📻💻⚒️✌️

There is a fixed dish feeding the same kind of modem for audio/control at one of my broadcast towers we rent to a network.

[@jeremyturner4327]

To think a starlink dish will do all of this now. You can see why it’s so popular for commercial

[@-r-495]

🤔 I was wondering if the dish and a different BUC and wave sauce/spaghetti could be used as an EW asset against flying washing machines. Maybe it‘s just me, but this is interesting kit. Not quite run-of-the mill at all. Thanks for sharing!

[@jayhamrick3794]

Beyond cool. Keep the content coming.

[@GhettoChild]

amazing!

[@poweron3654]

Do you do satellite internet?

[@owenschnell5414]

Where did you find one of these? Can you just buy one or is it special?

[@peterfairlie2296]

Anyone can buy one if you have the money. They are designed for and have MIL-SPEC so they are expensive. New they cost around for the whole kit $100,000 USD. Surplus you can get them for around $20,000

[@EV0L13]

Oohhhhh I want that

[@nergahak]

I like this!

[@toomaskotkas4467]

How did you get your hands on the milspec satcom system?

[@Denis7947.]

Cool😮

[@tacolover619]

Who has $15,000+ to spend on a MP-80-MOT C-Comsat ManPack, Flyaway Antenna and C-Com iNetVu 8020 Antenna Controller

[@Tyler_Becker]

Holy God, expensive. Nice to see the setup.

[@NenadKralj]

🤨🤔 this what I'm talking about 😮 I would 😁 buy it (this is truly next level) I just need +20k (whit which I don't know what better to do) but It would be great

[@linuxsuperuser]

Where Can I buy onre?

[@rabbitdrink]

@@peterfairlie2296 what about civ spec? if a starlink dish costs $600 and gets you into low orbit satellites i cant imagine a setup that can do this kind of stuff costing anywhere north of a rack

[@wacfilms1]

hello! I would like to buy one of this and how much???

[@davidk8184]

How much is a system like this?
