Just a note that I copied HO-68 beacon yesterday on my new Lindenblad
antennas.
I have updated the webpage:
http://www.kl7uw.com/LBant.htm

I am only running mode-VU with the "Lindys" because the UHF antenna
has a preamp and the VHF one does not.

My directional satellite array is not quite QRV; needs cables
connected in shack.
They have full capability for modes; VU, UV, US, VS, LU, LS
So I will not be on AO-7, VO-52, or FO-29 quite yet.

Enjoyed your webpage, Ed.

Probably going to take down the AO-10 antennas here and put up something
much simpler such as your Lindenblads or a couple of TPM's.  The AO-10 setup
is way overkill for what is up there and I'd rather use my tower for
something other than satellites.

Good luck with your antennas.

Hello all,



I?m looking for a interface for my Yaesu G-5500 rotor. I have seen the ones
from funkbox (Winrotor USB interface) and the one from EA4TX, but I need
your opinios, which you consider the best? The winrotor is usb and the ea4tx
is to plug in the pararell port without any box?I prefer the usb but I don?t
know, to be honest, which is the best and more compatible?please, any light
is welcome.

Despite EasyComm 2's similarities to GS-232, modifications to Predict's
source code haven't been successful in controlling the RAS rotator; are
all the AlfaSpid users here on Nova / SatPC32 / Orbitron?

I gave Alfa Radio a call yesterday and they said that the controller
appears to flicker when viewed under florescent lighting, so once I
check that under a good old incandescent it should be fine.

I also picked up one of MFJ's variable voltage supplies, so it is a
simple matter to observe how the controller does not enjoy lower
voltages. The flicking I'm talking about is much faster and subtle; the
multiplexing theory from earlier is a good one.

Ultimately I will run off of a stepped-down AC, probably with a variac
thrown in. I've always wanted the ability to throttle rotations; the
start-stop motion has always irked me. Makes the long yagis shake.

I'm looking forward to putting a small (~6ft) dish on this thing, but
right now the focus is a yagi array (4x 440CP42UG, 2x 2MCP22). I don't
have the heavy-duty version. Picked it up from Hy-Gain since the
exchange rate to Canada is not, shall we say, favorable right now.

Very nice work Ed!

For those of you outside of North America who cannot
get "English" sized pvc parts, AMSAT-UK is offering
the 70cm Parasitic Lindenblad in kit form using metric
components thanks to John, G7HIA.

Go to www.uk.amsat.org   select "Shop" from the
left hand menu and "hardware."

Since the first Feb 6 pass there is only a carrier on 435.150 and it looks
like the L band receiver is not switch on?

It's worked beautifully the last 3 or 4 passes, so I'm not sure what
difficulty you are having, Luc.

We do sometimes change to digital mode (9600 packet) in order to download
telemetry.  Maybe you were hearing that?

I forgot to add that these are patterned after Tony, AA2TX, designs
(UHF version is in Feb. 2010 QST).
My variation was to use pvc sched-40 plastic pipe (white).

The preamp is one of the older DEMI designs that uses a mgf-1302
GasFet with about 0.7 dBNF.  I see about one s-unit of noise when I
turn it on.  There is 4-feet of RG-58 to the UHF Lindy and 60-feet to
the FT-847 from the preamp.  The VHF Lindy has no preamp and is fed
with 60-feet of RG-213.

The VHF Lindy brings up repeaters 70-miles away with 50w, and the UHF
Lindy hears repeaters that far away.  So actually can make a nice
general purpose antenna.

Try hallo sat. HASI-USB

It is also a USB-interface and can be used by sat32PC.
The hallosat interface can be used to following planets too.

The L mode appears to be working quite well. I have not been able to get
into due to my equipment configuration, but the last 2200 utc pass had
about 6 people on it having a round table discussion.

Now that's funny!! (( creator of the LVB tracker /G6LVB )).

 Anyhow, I have two of them and they are great. Would highly recommend them
from Amsat NA . Purchasing one supports amsat.

I've used the LVB Tracker...
You can find the unit for sale at the AMSAT website.  This way you can have
a great interface and make a donation to AMSAT at the same time...

Hello all,



I'm looking for a interface for my Yaesu G-5500 rotor. I have seen the ones
from funkbox (Winrotor USB interface) and the one from EA4TX, but I need
your opinios, which you consider the best? The winrotor is usb and the ea4tx
is to plug in the pararell port without any box.I prefer the usb but I don't
know, to be honest, which is the best and more compatible.please, any light
is welcome.



Regards,

Fran, EA1JM
