Satellite Doppler Management by Professor Bouzouad Mouloud<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A total of about 25 students took part in this event, mainly students in master telecommunications and other enthusiasts of the world of radio telecommunications. While communication and demonstrations on amateur satellite traffic were carried out by Abdel Mesbah M0NPT<\/strong>, a member of AMSAT-UK and Chairman of the Hucknall Rolls-Royce Amateur Radio Club (UK), the Doppler management in satellite traffic was discussed by the Professor researcher, M. Bouzouad Mouloud<\/strong> of the laboratory of telecommunications of the signals and systems of the University of Laghouat.<\/p>\n

The radio club 7X3WPL is in the process of installing a satellite station using a Kenwood TS2000, Yaesu G5500 Trackers and Wimo cross Yagis, please keep your ears open on Satellites as you may hear them soon.<\/p>\n

I am delighted to be the first person to have activated Algeria (7X2ARA in JM16MS & 7X3WPL in JM13KT) on Satellites and I am looking forward to going back again.<\/p>\n

The first contact from Algeria on the SO-50<\/a> satellite was with my friend Peter 2EOSQL<\/a><\/strong> [now 2M0SQL]<\/em>, followed by Adam MU0WLV<\/a><\/strong>, Fran EA1JM<\/a><\/strong>, Olivier F5RRO<\/a><\/strong>, Jerome F4DXV<\/a><\/strong>, George MI6GTY<\/a><\/strong>, Peter G0ABI<\/a><\/strong>, Neven 9A5YY<\/a><\/strong>, Colin MU0FAL<\/a><\/strong> and many others.<\/p>\n

I am also looking forward to install my own station in Algiers once I get my Algerian callsign 7X2TT sorted Inchallah<\/p>\n
