KaBLE is an engineering experiment to evaluate using Ka band to communicate
to deap space spacecraft. It can potentially support much higher data rates
than the X-band we currently use on MO. I don't know much about the details,
but the transponder on MO can receive and return the signal under the
right circumstances. There is a short window where we are on the High gain
antenna but are close enough to have the link-margin to do the experiment.
