TDRS-G was an American geostationary Tracking and Data Relay Satellite launched from the STS 70 shuttle mission. It will relay data between spacecraft and between spacecraft and ground stations in the F and Ku bands. The testing will be done for about 6 months while the TDRS is parked on 150 deg W longitude and moved to another longitude (probably 171 W) based on test results.
