Has anyone attempted to 'moonbounce' or EME ATSC UHF band TV signals, in the
UHF band allocation?
It might make a nice publicity stunt for the TV station involved.
What such a test could accomplish:
1. Find out if ASTC error correction can survive EME, enough that is to get
a station ID.
2. Find out what 'emergency utility' such a communication system might
possess.
3. As a propagation experiment.
4. As a test of a radio astronomy network.
A similar test of DVB-T would also be welcome.
