I don't think this statement is correct:
"Since the NF of a AR SP432VDA is 0.55 dB and the gain is 15 dB if the
coax..."
The 2meter VDA has a noise figure great than 1, stated to be about 1.1 dB
NF; the difference is more than just gain.
Thus the reason I suggest that he get the 2 meter VDG model with 0.55 dB NF
:)

I managed to get in and out of Paulatuk (CP79) this week without freezing
to death. With the wind chill the temp went down as low as -60F! Thanks
to everyone for all the contacts.
Tomorrow (Friday) will be travelling by ice road up to the coast. Not
many good passes but I'll be on for the these ones:
AO27 20:30z from CP39
AO51 21:26z from CP39
SO50 21:54z from CP39
AO51 23:03z from CP29

Hi all,
I will be running a table at the Irving, Texas ARC 9th annual Hamfest this
Saturday, March 12 representing AMSAT, my first effort doing this. Would
like to invite any hams in general from the Dallas/Ft. Worth or
North/Central Texas area to come out and see us. Information at
http://irvingarc.org.
I will attempt only one satellite demo which will be an SO-50 pass starting
my 1350Z. This will be just prior to the doors opening so hopefully I will
have a good and captive audience. Please call N5HYP and give a shout out to
the folks in attendance.

I will be using a special event callsign on the birds
this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, to celebrate the 20th
Anniversary of the OPDX Bulletin. The callsign will be
NO8DX/20.
The OPDX Bulletin is a free DX Bulletin that is distributed
via an email list and picked up by email groups around the
world. Papays.com hosts the official web version of the
Bulletin which comes out every Sunday evening. Tedd Mirgliotta
KB8NW is the editor of this publication which often includes satellite
announcements. Tedd is the President of the Northern Ohio DX
Association (NODXA) and has devoted a good part of his life to this
free source of DX information. There have been 1001 issues
published to date. Thousands of amateurs around the world read
this bulletin every week.
The NO8DX/20 call will be used by many of our NODXA club members on the
HF and VHF bands. Those who wish to receive a special QSL card
should send their SASE to the qrz.com address for KB8NW.
If there are any rare grid operations on the birds over the
weekend, I will obviously yield the bird to them.
73,
John K8YSE

Hi Mark, N8MH
Our friend Paul K6HR is worry about to overload the receiver front end
using in front of it a preamplifier and as per his question he want to know
if in front of his receiver IC 821H a preamplifier SP432 with 24 dB gain
is better or not then a SP432 model with a gain of only 15 dB
In his question Paul is not considering the Noise Figure but only the gain
of a preamplifier and this is not enough for a correct analysis.
In addition our friend Paul K6HR is considering preamplifiers model
SP 432 so that he need a preamplifier for 70 cm and not for 2 meters.
This is why I first converted the receiver IC 821 H sensitivity
specifications into a Noise Figure value of 4 dB and then I have explained
to him that following my calculations a preamplifier SP432VDG with
NF= 0.55 dB and a Gain of 16 dB into the frequency range 420-450 MHz
is recommended to increase the overall sensitivity without to overload
his receiver.
The model for 70 cm SP432VDG needed by Paul K6HR has a Noise Figure
of 0.55 dB and a gain of 16 dB as specified in the bottom line here:

Hi!
Last night's presentation and VO-52 demonstration at the Escondido
Amateur Radio Society's meeting was a great time for all. Including
the pre-meeting pizza dinner (that was a restaurant called World's
Best Pizza, and I can't argue with that one), it wrapped up a busy
yet fun day.
I left Phoenix around 1300 UTC, and made the drive to San Diego in
5.5 hours. After stopping by the local HRO store and meeting another
local ham for lunch (thanks Dan WD8PFS), I met up with John W9EN
club vice president, and program chairman) at his office. I had a
nice tour of that complex, then we prepared for the dinner and meeting.
VO-52 was passing by about 20-25 minutes before the start of the
meeting, and that was the satellite I used for the demonstration.
Thanks to Ron N8RO, Leo W7JPI and Jim ND9M for showing up and saying
hello to me and the crowd. Then, the meeting and presentation. One
of those in attendance drove in from Palm Springs for the meeting,
about 2 hours' driving time each way!
Thanks again to the club and W9EN for the invitation. Other than
impromptu presentations/demostrations in Mexicali I've done in 2009 and
2010, this was the first time I gave a presentation and formal
demonstration somewhere away from Arizona. I will return home later
today, so I can be out at the hamfest in Scottsdale AZ (east-side suburb
of Phoenix) tomorrow morning with an AMSAT table and more demonstrations
on different satellites. Even though gasoline prices are no fun (around
$4/gallon in most of the San Diego area), this has been a fun trip.
73!

BJ8TA Amateur Radio EME & Satellites Expedition
AMSAT-China is organizing some enthusiasts from its members to come to
southwest China for
experiments of EME and amateur satellite communications. The expedition team
will use special
technology experiments amateur radio call sign BJ8TA.
BJ8TA team will be Shangri-La County(NL97ut), Yunnan Province of China
during March 20-23.
it will be the first time amateur radio EME communications in grid NL, the
communications scheme on
the 6m, 2m and 70cm bands, using Yagi antennas with PA of one kilowatt.
And then, the team will move to Yunnan Astronomical Observatory of the

Domenico,
I have been watching Fox News all morning. The wave has reached the west
coast and damaged boats and harbors in Crescent City, CA., Santa Cruz, CA
and harbors and marinas in the LA area. The damage does not appear to go
inland like it did in Japan nor do I see any indication of HUGE waves at
sea. In fact, they are saying boats are better off if they are off shore
somewhat instead of close to shore. Have not heard of it hitting Mexico, but
the 'wave' seems to diminish as it goes south.
Hope this helps. Maybe ND9M can give us some info from the San Diego area
73, Ted K7TRK
