Hello to all,
After reading some of the postings on the bbs discussing AO-51 1.2 ghz mode,
I am wondering what
antennas are being used, commercial and homebrew.

Norman,
A shameless plug for Bob, W7LRD's helical antennas (1.2 and 2.4ghz) -
great value, work superbly and brilliant after sales help!
Quite a few on this list are owners of these antennas.
Hope that helps.

Nigel,
I don't think Bob has a website up at the moment but no doubt he will
read this thread and respond to any interested people.
As an aside, he also donates 20% (I think its 20%) of every sale to AMSAT.
I can send you pictures of mine if that helps (?)

Hi all,
Further to the recent posting on the BBS about availability of " Tracking
Software " for iphones.
I thought that I would point out that Jim Berry also now has tracking
software for the iPhone / iPod Touch.
PocketSat3 is now available ( including a demo version ) from his web site
_http://www.bigfattail.com_ (http://www.bigfattail.com)
or _www.pocketsat.com_ (http://www.pocketsat.com)
Jim's versions for PDA's such as Palm and Pocket PC have been around of
course for some time now and
prove to be very useful when operating portable. Some of these devices are
available so cheap these days
but are of course some are much very much slower than an iPod.
They still do the job with prediction and tracking and have proved very use
for me not only for operating but also for demonstrations on working
satellites.
Good luck and you will find Jim very helpful, he is also looking its use
on other possible Windows mobile
devices.

Oh - I'd appreciate it if you'd point out the existence of PocketSat3
for the iPhone / iPod Touch when you're demoing. A new iPod Touch
costs < $200 and blows the doors off of the Palm devices - and
PocketSat3 is way cooler than PocketSat+, as well. ( www.pocketsat.com )

We had quite the crowd tonight on L/U. I heard and worked K8YSE, KG4ZLB,
KC9ELU, K4YYL, WO3T, WB8OTH, KD8CAO, and N8MH. Counting myself that makes
nine on one pass, 10 if we count the radar operator. Can we do better before
the end of the week?

I have been using a homebrew helix that I built on the VE3NPC design.
It works quite well, and wasn't too expensive to build. Sorry I can't
remember how much I spent, but it was probably less than $50 easy.
Google VE3NPC and you should be able to find the design.

i have built one of the 1296 as seen on this thread the person the posted it
had pictures:
?http://www.worldwidedx.com/home-brew-mods/35899-homebrew-1-2-ghz-10-element-
yagi-antenna.html
?
it is the WA5VJB version, i have also built other versions 145,220 MHZ...ect
so if you hear me on AO-51?with a messed up signal?it will be the IC-x2a's

I recently acquired a 1.2 GHZ handheld that has a max output of one watt.
Any thoughts about how well this would work with AO51 ? Would a hand held

Hi Mark-Maybe with a fairly high gain antenna and a high elevation.? That
would be fun to play with.? Tracking the doppler would be a challange.? But
then, "if it were easy, everyone would be doing it".

Hi all,
Please accept my sincere apologies regarding my posting on the Pocketsat3
tracking software for the
iPod.
I have been contacted to advise that unlike the PDA software there is NOT
an unregistered version that can be downloaded. Not having an iPod I had
not tried to follow up any down load etc and was therefore
unaware of the need to get it via an iTunes store without a trial !!!!!
Sorry for my ignorance and error in the posting of the information.

Most people find that 10 watts to a gain antenna is workable, but get much
better results with a brick amp to bump that up to ~70 watts. And while
doable, working without active Doppler control is equally painful for you
and the stations you are TRYING to work.
My recent acquisition, an Alinco DJ-G7, while a pretty nice rig for normal
terrestrial operations, has been a disappointment for satellite use.
However, it is the only rig I have with which I can monitor my mode-L
uplink, so it is useful in that respect. ;)

Norman,
I acquired a M2 beam from someone who got out of satellites post-AO-40. I
have found it works very well, though of course being linearly polarized you
can get short dropouts. I have also used a home brew helix, but based on
performance have no plans to replace the M2.
