Hi
Just finished my first satellite qso ever with NA4K on the Russian
Sputnik RS-12/13 using my K2!
Uplink at 21.215, downlink at 28.415 +/-. Sigs 559/559.
I was running 12 watts and quickly flipping back and forth between
bands, using a cf zepp cut for 80 meters for both frequencies. Glad to
have the KAT2 matching the same antenna on two different bands or it
wouldn't have worked at all. A bit of a clumsy way of doing things
(having to flip between bands, adjust for doppler, copy 20+ wpm) but it
worked!

Any chance of getting crossband operation into the K2 software?
