NASTF--- Satellite --Communications-- 2 way communication?? I am not endorsing NSATF by any means, yet. But it looks intriguing, and I have looked at it a bit in the past week or so. This was a pretty nice summary that I have reposted from another Thread. I do like DISH, LBRT and GMH (thnanks for GMH Mike ) ------------------------------ A comprehensive guide to NSATF: Q & A on NSATF found here by: split_city (36/M/Texas) 12/2/1999 3:20 am EST Msg: 3957 of 3965 Here are the answers to most of your investing questions.

It's called KA Band. Norsat is a provider of and leader in this new technology for the internet. KA Band Facts: electric-words.com Great Summary by Manguy1 There are two satellites in space right now able to deliver the Ka band internet two-way access. One is through ASTRAnet and the other is Koreasat. ASTRAnet has two contractors for the SIT, and one is Nortel. Nortel and Motorola were both fighting for the non-European half, and Nortel got the contract. It was a win-win for NSATF, since NSATF provides the ODU for both Motorola and Nortel. Then, in Koreasat's project, Hyundai Electronics is the ground station provider(aka SIT). NSATF was chosen to be the provider of the ODU there, too. So, NSATF is providing the ODU for the only two Ka band satellites in orbit right now. I expect more. More importantly, NSATF is the preferred provider of at least three ground station giants.
