'''Radio Communication''' over a '''distance''' of at least '''2 Light Seconds''' using the Moon as reflector. Anyone interested in actually talking to him/herself? We can do that - you're welcome.
Project Moonbounce's aim is to provide the visitors of [http://events.ccc.de/camp/2011/wiki/index.php/Main_Page 2011's Chaos Communication Camp] some interesting insights into amateur radio in general and into one of its most spectacular varieties in particular. Earth-Moon-Earth (EME, Moonbounce) radio communication directly on the campsite and for everyone's amazement. Since the camp's language is mostly English due to the very international audience, this site is as well.


 
Project Moonbounce is part of Metalab's [[CCCamp2011|Leiwandville 3.0]] and provided by the people of [[MetaFunk]] in cooperation with amateur radio operators from the CCC ([http://www.chaoswelle.de/ Chaoswelle]) and from all over the world!

* We will work in the [[wen:2-meter_band|2m band]] (≈144MHz) using 2 long Yagi antennas and a high power amplifier.
* Togehter with the Chaoswelle we will also be partaking in all other [http://www.chaoswelle.de/Camp2011 hamradio activities] on the camp.

=== Info deutsch ===
Project Moonbounce soll den Besuchern des [[CCCamp2011|Chaos Communication Camp 2011]] den Amateurfunk allgemein und eine seiner späktakulärsten Spielarten im Besonderen nahebringen. Erde-Mond-Erde (EME, Moonbounce) Funkverkehr direkt  auf dem Camp und für alle zu bestaunen. Das Camp ist, wie unsere Zielgruppe, höchst international und die Sprache größtenteils Englisch. Die Moonbounce Projektseite ist daher ebenfalls in englisch gehalten. Sollten trotzdem oder grade deswegen Fragen auftreten, einfach bei [[user:AndiS|OE4DNS]] anklopfen!

====Testing====
== Testing ==
After collecting all equipment a testing setup will be created to check if all components are working, if nothing is missing and if we can improve our setup.

== Call sign ==
There will be a special event callsign for the camp that we can use. An alternative would be using home-call signs with DL prefix.


== Software/Setup ==
WSJT v7 using JT65B

= How it worked =
[[Kategorie:Extern|Moonbounce]]
We were very successful in producing a readeable signal that was heard from many stations on the northern hemisphere. Unfortunately and most likely due to heavy QRM at the campsite we were not able to complete a full two-way QSO. We did hear and decode some signals tough.
 
There is a chat-log from the chris.org JT65 EME chat. Here is a [[Project_Moonbounce/EME_chat|Copy to read]].
