Mike,
Thanks for the update. Getting through that thin layer of atmosphere with
WX in it has always been a challenge.

Worked them, N8MH at the microphone, on AO-51, at the 2205 UTC pass. Mark
was working with the hand held antenna and equipment as they were still
setting up the main stations. Good signals, and good cooperation from those
working him. Let the fun begin.

Hypothetically speaking, if you had an FT-857 and wanted to work
satellites full-duplex, what would you pair it with? Another 857, an
817, something else?

I was using a pair of 857 before I got an Icom IC-910. The cheaper way out
would be an 817.

Hi Joel,
I've always used my FT-857D as the receiver, paired with my FT 817ND
as transmitter for portable use, and found it a very good combination.
It all fits in a shoulder bag complete with gel cell battery, and
either my arrow or elk antenna.

Anybody interested in purchasing my trusty IC-821H?
I recently replaced with an IC-910H, $450.00 will take it.
Please reply direct, if interested.

Hello everyone,
I have a antenna setup question as I am new to satellite operations
so please bear with me...
I have a 2meter beam and a 70cm beam from my former adventures into
VHF weak signal operations and was wondering about using them for satellite
work.
Was thinking that since I don't have a az/el rotator yet, if I set
them up on a single cross-boom with the TV rotator I have now, angle them
with the elements at 45 degree angles and the booms angled 30 to 40 degrees
front end up I might be able to get some decent ability into the FM
satellites (AO51, SO50, AO27, ISS).
I already have the good coax for them (LMR-400) and a duplexor for
my FT-857D. Was going to try to install the antennas on top of my storage
building with a height of approx. 16 feet. That's the highest structure I
can get onto that belongs to me.
Any alternate ideas or advice is always welcome as I said before this is all
new to me.

About 15 degrees elevation is usually considered optimum.

Hi Jacob,
My satelite antenna is 4 elements on 2 meters and 8 elements on 430 with
a pre-amp mounted on the UHF boom. The UHF antenna is used for receive
only. Take a look at it on QRZ.com under my call sign.

The K4T Audio Recording from this morning's pass is on
my webserver. They were on FO-29 30 minutes later
but their signal was weak. Right now they are working
ssb on 14260.
http://www.papays.com/AO-51_12Mar2010_115613z.mp3
They are having some antenna pointing problems but have been
working through it. Lots of satellite contacts are in their log.
Great job!

Yes, NEVER higher than 15 degrees. You don't need the gain much
above the horizon where the satellite is up to 10 dB CLOSER.
You DO need the gain on the horizon where the satellite is 10 dB
further away. See the plot on www.aprs.org/rotator1.html Pay
particular attention to the scale drawing of a LEO orbit to the
ground station.
Tracking a LEO satellite is like sitting 100 yards from an
infinitely long east-west railroad track and using your beam to
communicate with a train.
1) You point your antenna almost due west (-15 degrees or so) so
that the infinite distance is still in the main beam PLUS all
the track almost up to where you are. Then the approaching
train is ALWAYS in your main beam until it is 100 yards away
(where it is now 45 degrees from your location). But then it is
so strong, you can hear it on a wet noodle.
2) For those three seconds as it goes by, it is not in your main
beam, but it is so strong who cares.
3) Swing the beam now due east (minus about 15 degres) and
again, for the entire rest of the pass, the train is in your
main beam.
If you put your beam in either case 30 or 40 degrees away from
the track, you would miss the MAJORITY of the time the train is
traveling, because the MAJORITY of the time, it is far far away
and not in your main beam.
We must dispell any literature that even hints that an angle
above 15 degrees is good for LEO satellites (of course there are
always exceptions)... For example, you live in a HOLE! Then it
makes no sense to set your antenna at 15 degrees if that is
still pinting into surrounding dirt. Common sense then applies.

Hello all,
I got a lot of responses about problem of digital mode
through HO-68. The main problem is that Packet communication
is often interrupted by voice. We are trying a new schedule
in this week, voice and packet operations will be separated
by the schedule, of course, this just depends on the hams'own
discipline. If you have any comment and suggestion, please
let me know.

Betreff: [amsat-bb] HO-68 Schedule - 14-21 Mar 2010
Hello all,
I got a lot of responses about problem of digital mode
through HO-68. The main problem is that Packet communication
is often interrupted by voice. We are trying a new schedule
in this week, voice and packet operations will be separated
by the schedule, of course, this just depends on the hams'own
discipline. If you have any comment and suggestion, please
let me know.

Hi,
If you need Dry Tortugas, give them a try, almost any satellite and pass.
They are on the air with a first rate satellite station. An earlier problem
with the 70 cm downlink is fixed. So far everybody seems to be playing nice
by being patient.
73s,
Alan

Mark was loud and clear on AO-27 on the first PM
AO-27 pass out over the Atlantic. He reported that
their preamps and antennas are working now and
they have plenty of transmit power to be heard.
Thanks to those who provided wiring info for their
preamps. They are definitely hearing better. Many
stations were worked on this pass.
73,
John K8YSE
