a mirror reflects waves, a receiver would receive. tried a oversized alu receiver witch is thermo-electric, and the generator couples itself to either the generator or the reactor depending on it's orientation. cool idea though

hi guys, i have some relay questions i couldn't find much on it so a bit of clarifications without testing everything might help alot of us "Boost" is this reinforcing your MJ availability on a transmitter that's setup as relay and has a new beam source? (aka reactor+generator+beam_gen+transmitter(relay)+reciever(relay). Or something else. "Merging beams" is this a coverup for 2 dual bandwidth receiver that creates MJ. or does it actually merge the beam, and if so how would you be able to make use of the merged beam. "Bandwidth convertor" & "inlay mode" is their any way to convert beams from one bandwidth to another without converting to MJ. (maybe another intermediate) I saw an example of freethinker down scaling a UV range to visible range as a idea, i think he used the words "inlay mode" It keeps haunting me i can't repeat it, without a silly looking efficiency in that spectrum. and definitely i have not seen a inlay mode button. "Beams" (theoretical) maybe for a laugh, could a "highly customized" plasma-beam core reactor have any benefit from a internal beam generator. or even a external beam if the spotsize can be made compatible. thinking like a hard x-ray 100M dish in low mun orbit.

absolutely its really expensive automation. the bug: i was about to post it in development or bug but to keep our conversation alive using 2 transmit dishes and 2 generators creates a link with 2 available bandwiths that has a combined dish size (sum of 2 dishes) and theirfor half spotsize. I think it's the combining ability of antenna that is used while transmitting and probably could even be used while using 2 times the same wavelength. i'm sorry if i went a little overboard on the theoretical, but this mod inspires to look at your options

yes, it all works, that sayed: i cross relayed a medium Multi band-with transceiver. wich is probebly unrealistic as the transmitter would need the pivot. As far as i checked Relay dishes have 2 dishes where the smaller is able 2 transmit. this means you can use both dishes on each transceiver. It's probebly not ment so that can be a bad plan if you update 2 wavelengths shouldn't be a problem theoretically and are working. you need a double beam generator and double transmitter. Advantage: (2 wavelenghts) - So theoretically you could beam up 2 times the amount through 2 dishes, But only after you max out your Dish Capacity, Spot sizes can determent the size of your dish like it's nobody's business, and that can greatly increase capacity. losing this advantage completely - admospheric absorbtion: any one wavelenght step could make a difference ( i don't know if this would be enough ) you can look at maybe far-ultra violet versus near ultraviolet 55% vs 90% absorption and some wall to beam power, could help you overcome some places for only ~2x the spotsize. - Your network has adhoc capability, if you change your receiver bandwidth. - Bug: you could exploit a spotsize bug. but if that's fixed and your relying on it your doomed i won't elaborate on it here. - could give your network a bit more range with a traveling craft. - or you could use a different spectrum for different planets - 1 Reactor/generator/Cooling System Needed Disadvantages: - flexibility in the size of your 2 dishes is mostly lost. - "dish size" closely need to setup for the highest wavelength as long as spot size is your determination for dish size - if your dish isn't supposed to transmit and receive at the same time this can change with the next patch - Your "beamer" needs 2 beam generators and 2 dishes. - overall complexity increases - your space plane must be able to choose the beam or be specifically meant for the correct beam. - similar advantages can be gained if you can and want to change the wavelength of your network manually(making it useless with some switching) - their are gonna be limited options to make this work. with even more science requirements - if your beam generator is on kerbin ground you have additional problems all together: it's not gonna be great, but i'm sure you can be really smart with it. I think most of the perks are gonna be in a little flexibility while flying. maybe keeping your network relevant for 1 planets further or do some error-correction witch is still cool.
