Information

Home Expedition "BASK –Great Sail Peak"

Is it possible to contact by sattelite telephone from Base camp of the Great Sail Peak expedition?

 

If you look at the map (red point is the approximate location of the expedition) you can have some questions. On the map there are areas of activity of each of 4th sattelites wich make the connection for our expedition. Sattelits are on geostationary orbit. Antenna of telephone should look at one of these sattelites. On the map you see that the expedition will be on the edge of area AOR-E sattelite (yellow colour). To use the red coloured sattelite AOR-W, perhaps will be impossible because of the Great Sail peak wall, where climbers will have the route. Base camp have to locate at south side of the wall, but the direction to the sattelite - under the low angel to the horizon.
Will it be possible to connect from the base camp or they should search another place? This question is now worries all of us.
