Which of the following frequency ranges is most suited for meteor-scatter communications?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: C. 28 MHz - 148 MHz
Meteor scatter works best from about 28 MHz to 148 MHz, with 6 meters the most popular. Lower frequencies are absorbed and higher ones reflect poorly from meteor trails.
Tip: Meteor scatter: 10 m through 2 m, best on 6 m.
