[QUOTE="s-band, post: 1061145, member: 407744"] You'll need a fair bit of X band kit unless the craft have higher gain antennas than they have been using. For MCOA & B Madrid uses [URL='https://www.nasa.gov/directorates/heo/scan/news_Madrid_DSS_63_40_years.html']Deep Space Station 63 (DSS-63) Anniversary[/URL] (70m) and still only gets -155 to-160dBm if they are lucky. They don't get much more than that from InSight on a 35m dish. NSYT is about 20-30dB below my threshold on a 1.2m. [/QUOTE]
