Another thing, you have no idea how old I am. So what company did you work for that designed UAVs that were used in Iraq. I used a few different ones. As for a slide rule, yeah I have messed around with one, and they are an awesome tool for someone who needs it. You however have no grasp on the basics of how an RF signal works. I have seen this through a few conversations. I am not talking about math, I am talking about basic concepts. These are things that you must know in order to be able to design anything. So do not give me the old guru routine, you do not qualify.
Mikey T.,
I worked for a company called BAI Aerosystems that was later bought out by L3 Corporation. I'm surprised you've never heard of them. We did work for NavAir, surely you've heard of them. So mikey T. what kind of work do you do? All I've heard from you is you install satellite dishes, and that makes you a whiz bang in electronics. For someone who doesn't realize solar panels can kill, ought not criticize other people's knowledge of electronics. You are correct I was trolling you before I became a flat Earther. I just wanted to see how smart you were in electronics because I had read one of your comments, saying how smart you were in electronics. I'm always skeptical when I hear someone say how smart they are in electronics. Needless to say, I wasn't impressed. So mikey, keep on installing your dish antennas and leave the real electronics to us pros.

Yendor,
I find it very suspicious that in spite of your claims to have worked in the industry your ignorance of the basics is breathtaking, I have seen situations before like this, I have hired EE graduates that don't know which way round a zener diode goes, and don't know how to wire up a 3 pin mains plug, but we take them through the training to do the job we want, and teach them the basics that they should already know.
Let's take some specifics, you didn't know the correct terminology for satellite downlink footprints, you didn't understand that the higher the gain a dish has the greater need for alignment accuracy, you didn't know what RTK was. You pretended to not know what a troll was when I accused you of trolling, and here, I see you just admit that you were in fact trolling.
Now you are claiming that touching a solar panel can kill you, FFS have you had anything to do with solar? What part of the panel is going to kill you if you touch it?
You claim that 1ma will kill, but you don't mention voltage or frequency or cite any supporting references.
However, I do agree with you that the ISS wiring looks untidy, and if it were mil spec, it would all be laced up and tied down neat. I suspect that a lot of the loose wiring is for non-critical movable peripheral equipment, not mission critical life support systems. Untidy as it is, it's probably more of a proof that it's real, rather than proof that it's faked.
What I said to you before, was to stop playing the dumb yokel act, now that you've finally dropped the dumb yokel act, there is the possibility of a sensible debate.
