During the Apollo 11 mission on the moon,on July 21 /1969,Armstrong and Aldri
n installed a 20 watt 2287,5 MHz and 2272,5 MHz equipments on the Moon to sen
d the seismograph signals to the Earth in order to study the moon-quake.
When 10 years ago,the EME activity on 2320 and 2390 MHz becames a possible ta
sk for radioamateurs,those signals (2287,5 and 2272,5 MHz) where used by some
EME very experienced operators as an aid to track the moon from the earth wit
h high accuracy.For this job,they needed to get only the carrier disregarding 
any type of modulation.
I dont know if those carriers where modulated or not after roughly 20 years 
but the 20 watt TWTs where still functioning on the "Mare Tranquillitatis"and
probably they are still functioning now.
In addition,the 26 dBic dish antenna used by the Apollo Astronauts during the
ir Moon ride to transmit TV signals directly from the Moon buggy to Earth,on
3600 MHz,was designed and built by the ARCA-ASTRO Engeneer Walter Maxell,W2DU 
wich is still in life.I suggest all to get his book "REFLECTIONS" Transmissio
n lines and Antennas,sold by the ARRL at $ 20 under Cat.Nø2995.
In addition:If you look at the photograph of the corner reflector placed on t
he lunar surface to reflect laser light sent to the Moon from Earth,you can e
xacly measure a 24ø angle between the mirror reflecting surface and its base-
frame.24ø is the angle from the lunar Zenith.
This angle corresponds exactly to the point in wich the Earth was seen in the 
lunar sky from Mare Tranquillitatis at 10ø North Latitude of the Moon.
Nobody at that time was able to place with soft landing tecnique early 1969 a 
mirror on the lunar surface with so high aiming accuracy.
It means that a man must be there on the moon to place and orient the mirror 
because laser light to the Moon was sent and received back by severals parts 
of the world and by different nations to !
Te Holy Thomas don't belived the Christ resurrection and to believe,he needed 
to put his finger inside the Christ wounds.
In my personal opinion if he don't belived before,he don't belived after that
So in conclusion,if one don't belive something ,first of all he should able t
o demonstrate the reverse using numbars.
