Hi Luc,VE2DWE
Two RG-59 are to produce only the matching between two 50 ohm antennas in
parallel and a 50 ohm feed line but not delay is generated so that the axial
radiation is a linearly polarized wave.
> Is this gives both horizontal and vertical polarization at the same time?
The horizontal and vertical polarizations are both present but they are
two components that combines each the other to generate a resultant wich
is 1.41 greater in amplitude and this combination of two components and one
resultant at the same time is called axial radiation.
If you mount the elements in X configuration the above resultant can be
a vector horizontal or vertical depending on how you have oriented the arms
of the gamma match.
If you mount the elements in a + configuration the above resultant can be
a vector at 45? or 135? depending on how you have oriented the arms of
the gamma match.
Following the schematic diagram in the manual for axial radiation you get
at the same time a vertical and a horizontal components while the resultant
as per Pitagora theorem is oriented at 45?
> If it's the case it's could be a way to counteract the polarization change

In the axial radiation the maximum radiated power lies in the resultant
vector wich is the amplitude of a componenent vector multiplied by 1.41
In conclusion the axial radiation is a way to get at the same time two
crossed linear polarization components with a resultant linear radiation
in between shifted by 45? or 135? wich amplitude is 1.41 time greater.

Hi Luc,
I modified my Cushcraft also (a different one though);
Most likely I violated many rules, but after the modification
I could also get AO51 at 435.150 instead of only 435.300 MHz.

Hi,
If you are a ham currently on Kwajalein (or just know one) and interested in
helping our student team, please respond to me and I'll tell you how. If
you're not on Kwaj, you can disregard this message.
Thanks!

Dear all,
http://www.vimeo.com/6657880
This video shows the ISS passing over the Netherlands (Europe) as a bright,
moving star.
You hear bursts of digital communication (APRS) and see them decoded on
screen.
Featured in the HD movie are the following radio-amateurs:
LA4FPA, G6HMS, IW9FRA, ON7DS, YO8RBY, PA3GUO, OE1CWJ, UA1CAS and SP9TTX.
Enjoy !
Henk, PA3GUO
ps: this video nicely demonstrates APRS as an efficient communication
technology !

Yes, I heard good old FO-29 this evening in JO21ho

Thanks for everyones replies to my questions.
Have another. The azimuth meter shows an area from
360 deg to 90 Degress. Mine seems to be spot on at
180 degrees and 90 degrees, assume its good at other
Settings, however, it does not go all the way to the 90 degrees
Past 360, only to 45 degrees.. Is there something I could have
Don't wrong setting it up?
Oh .. Other question was .. Well confirming.. That I should
Balance the weight on the elevation rotor so its even weight loading?

Hi Luc, VE2DWE
When we refere to helical antennas the radiation is called axial mode of
radiation and can be obtained if the circunference of a turn in ranging from
0.8 to 1.5 wavelenght with a pitch angle between each turns of 12?
In this case the helix antenna radiates from the reflector in a direction
long the boom.
With different circunferences and pich angles the helix antenna radiates in
a direction perpendicular to the boom and this is called normal mode of
radiation.
Read ANTENNAS by John Kraus edition 1950 chapter-7 the helical antennas
Sec.7-13 page 206
By the way the above radiation has nothig to do with the axial radiation of
your A432-20T

I noticed the Iranian satellite payload on their recent launch contained

You might try probing any contacts you have at MIT Lincoln Labs or maybe

A very good friend of mine was on a Russian submarine a few years ago for a
missile launch (they have a setup with submarine launched missiles to put
satellites in orbit).
The Russians let him take pictures every where in the "control
room"...including the Garmin GPS receivers.
With what the last administration let the PRC get away with in the name of
making the Dreamliner...ITAR is a big joke.

Hi!
This was a good day out in western Arizona. I worked 6 different
passes from the DM23/DM24 grid boundary (two on each of the 3 FM
satellites), scouted out another location closer to the Colorado
River still in Arizona for this grid boundary, and logged a total
of 60 QSOs with stations from central Mexico to western Canada and
all across the USA.
The spot I stopped at was approximately 11 miles/17.7km southeast
of Parker AZ, north of the intersection of Arizona routes 72 and
95 in La Paz County. The coordinates are 34 0.00 N 114 12.925 W
(this should work for Google Earth or Google Maps). I had parked
away from those two state highways on the side of the paved road
running north across railroad tracks to a dead end, thinking I
would be out of the way and not attract attention from the law
enforcement. After my recent experience at DM31 near the Mexican
border 2 weekends ago (a couple of encounters with US Border Patrol
agents), I should not have been surprised to see a state trooper
pay me a visit this afternoon.
I left Phoenix around 9am (1600 UTC), and had lots of time to make
the drive out to that spot. Instead of taking a direct route to
there, which would have taken about 2.5 hours, I went a little
further west and drove through the Colorado River Indian Reservation
along the east side of the Colorado River. There was another spot
on the DM23/DM24 boundary I could have worked from, without returning
to where I stopped last year and worked from this boundary. After
stopping for fuel and lunch, I went out to the spot I wanted to work
from. It took a few minutes to get the GPS reading to show 34
degrees North, but once that was done I waited for the first AO-27
pass at 2051 UTC.
The first AO-27 pass to the east is usually a good one to work
stations all over North America. It was a good one once again,
except for a brief interruption. I was able to work the first
2 minutes or so, before an Arizona state trooper stopped by and
asked if I was having car problems. Apparently someone driving
along one of those two state highways called the highway patrol
to report my "breakdown". Once I told the trooper I didn't have
a breakdown and that I was working the radio away from civilization
out there, he drove away - and I resumed working stations. A
total of 16 stations were worked in about 6 of the 7 minutes on
that pass.
Before the second AO-27 pass, I drove back to Parker to get some
snacks and take pictures at the Colorado River. The western AO-27
pass at 2232 UTC brought 6 more QSOs. Unfortunately, this pass was
interrupted by an Echolink node somewhere in the western US using
145.850 MHz as its frequency. I never heard the node ID itself,
but did hear one call of the station using the node. I have my
recording from this pass and the others I worked out there, so I
can go back and get the call I heard and hope that the ham has an
e-mail address. Maybe that ham will tell me which Echolink node
he was using at that time.
A few minutes after that AO-27 pass, I had a shallow northeastern
SO-50 pass at 2252 UTC, with a maximum elevation of 6 degrees. I
worked 7 stations in 5 minutes on that pass, a nice surprise. Then
I had the first of the AO-51 passes at 2333 UTC, a 12-degree pass
to the east. Fifteen QSOs logged, with stations in Mexico and all
over the US.
The last two passes, an SO-50 pass at 0028 UTC followed by an
AO-51 pass at 0111 UTC, had 8 QSOs each. By the time the AO-51
pass wrapped up, I disassembled my station and drove back home.
For a trip that I didn't give a lot of advance notice about,
and having worked from DM23/DM24 last year, this turned out to
be a good day. I know I worked some calls for the first time
today, and hopefully there will be a second QSO with them when
I'm operating in or around Phoenix in the near future.
If anyone wants a QSL card for a QSO - or QSOs - made with
WD9EWK out in DM23/DM24, please e-mail me directly with the
details of each QSO. If you're in the log, I'll send you a
card. No need to send me a QSL card or SASE. I will need
to make new QSL cards for this stop, since my previous trip
to the DM23/DM24 boundary was in California. I hope to do
that in the coming week.
Thanks to everyone who showed up and worked me from out there
in western Arizona. 73!
