C-band X-band satellites

[shenoy10]

Hi all,

Are there any satellite observations on the Satnogs networks from satellites operating in the 5-8 Ghz frequency range?

Thanks!

There are too few satellites of interest to radio amateurs in this bands.
Not interesting:

You can see a breakdown of the bands in our db at https://db.satnogs.org/stats/ . UHF and VHF are definitely the most prevalent.

Permission to transmit is usually (most easily) granted to satellite operators operating in VHF, UHF and S-band, although you may be able to be given access to other bands (e.g. X-band) if the demands of your experiment/scientific unit can justify it. Secondly, it depends on what you wish to transmit. If high data rate transmission is a requirement, you are leaning towards a high frequency (e.g. S-band or X-band).

The db says that there are around 25 transmitters in the Xband [https://db.satnogs.org/stats/ ]. How can I determine which of these specific transmitters are in the Xband.

Phase 3-D - 2 transmitters
Es’hail 2 - 21 transmitters
TTU101 - 1 transmitter
Obviously, this list is of no practical interest.
