We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

I found <a rel=nofollow target=_blank href="http://www.nasa.gov/pdf/60116main_cassini-arrival.pdf">http://www.nasa.gov/pdf/60116main_cassini-arrival.pdf</a> quite interesting - 8.4 and 7.2 GHz are used.

Don't forget that the Deep Space Network is used, with a whole range of huge dishes that can be linked together, and the receivers are supercooled for low noise..

I haven't got time to do the maths at the moment but may well get back to you!

Thanks
