Earth-Moon-Earth (EME), also known as moonbounce, is a form of radio communication where radio waves are transmitted from Earth, bounce off the surface of the Moon, and are received back on Earth. This technique allows for long-distance communication by utilizing the Moon as a passive reflector – and we tried this on 10 GHz with a big dish.

My two Icom Radios – the IC-7300 and IC-9700 are almost out of warranty. I’ve only noticed this issue in the last 6 months – and I wonder – do they actually have a problem, let me know what you think.
