1: We made our test with CODE-3 GOLD software, which are fine on this 
signals. For fax we are experimenting at this moment and hope to find a 
solution soon.

2: The company Koeditz moved to D-34119 Kassel, Schenkendorfstrasse 1A
Tel: +49-561-73911-34, Fax: +49-561-73911-35

3. For DFM in the Ku-band of INTELSAT 605: connect the baseband of your 
sat-receiver with antenna in of the shortwave-receiver (att. 20dB!) and tune 
in ssb between 0 and around 3 MHz. What you are describing is SCPC. I hope 
we can make it for the 26. of April, because there still some legal problems 
(telephony etc.) to be solved.

4: Videos of drdish@tv are available from Hans Juergen Reblin in Germany 
(+49-212-329857, also Fax).
Good luck!
