Listings are from west to east (decreasing longitude in the Western Hemisphere and increasing longitude in the Eastern Hemisphere) by orbital position, starting and ending with the International Date Line. KC9SGV has started a mailing list for those interested in discussing the possibility of a geostationary satellite for North America.

Satellites in geostationary orbit maintain a constant position relative to the surface of the Earth. The box is small, but it limits the sharpness of the directional pattern, and therefore the power gain, that earth-based antennas can be designed to have. Geostationary satellites have a period of approximately 1436 minutes with inclination of 0 degrees (equatorial orbit). The concept of a geostationary orbit was popularised by the science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke in the 19 Not included in the list below are several more classified military geosynchronous satellites, such as PAN.
Even though it was only started a couple of days ago, there are already 128 members and eight topics of discussion. Note and Frequency: Filled with additional information where possible. In some cases the official name ends with the words R/B, meaning that it is a piece or any stage from some rocket booster. This corresponds to an inter-satellite spacing of approximately 73 km.

Satellites in geostationary orbit maintain a constant position relative to the surface of the earth. A geosynchronous satellite is a satellite in geosynchronous orbit, with an orbital period the same as the Earth's rotation period. Satellites in polar orbit, positioned at 800 km in altitude will take approximately 102 minutes to complete one revolution.
This corresponds to an inter-satellite spacing of approximately 73 km. The principal advantage of this type of satellite is the fact that an earthbound directional antenna can be aimed and then left in position without further adjustment. A geostationary satellite is any satellite which is placed in a geostationary orbit. To this happens the satellite should be positioned about 36 thousand kilometers in altitude. The major consideration for spacing of geostationary satellites is the beamwidth at-orbit of uplink transmitters, which is primarily a factor of the size and stability of the uplink dish, as well as what frequencies the satellite’s transponders receive; satellites with discontiguous frequency allocations can be much closer together. The lower the altitude of a satellite, more speed he needs to keep in orbit and not re-enters the atmosphere.

As often said by the late Jack Horkheimer, when signing off, (host of a PBS astronomy program, Star Gazers), “Keep looking up!”, Thanks Guys, Traditional global navigation systems do not use geosynchronous satellites, but some SBAS navigation satellites do. First, the exact position of a geostationary satellite, relative to the surface, varies slightly over the course of each 24-hour period because of gravitational interaction among the satellite, the earth, the sun, the moon, and the non-terrestrial planets. This corresponds to an inter-satellite spacing of approximately 73 km. These satellites are commonly used for communication purposes, such as radio and television networks, backhaul, and direct broadcast. This should be a weaker signal required satellite, so DX will be in the reach of many more hams than before – without an amplifier. AE5X: A CW-centric blog from Kingswood, Texas. orbit. A number ofweather satellites are also present in geosynchronous orbits. First, because the orbital zone is an extremely narrow ring in the plane of the equator, the number of satellites that can be maintained in geostationary orbits without mutual conflict (or even collision) is limited. Geo Orbit position is the longitude position around the geostationary
