I have one still on RF channel 3 (KDLO). West of me is one on RF channel 2
(KOTA).

I didn't think there were any vhf stations left. All the numbers on the
channels now are virtual. All the tv antenna plans are for uhf bands. A
quick look in the Boston market and the lowest channel is 19, channel
2@xxxxxx. Are there places that still use vhf?

Charles,
Our Channels 8 & 10 moved the digital channel from UHF to VHF at the end of
the conversion period. Since they had to give up one channel and the
operating costs for the same coverage are considerably less on VHF it was a
easy decision to make. I doubt this is what FCC had in mind, but that is how
it worked out.
UHF has less noise (Very little galactic noise) and significantly smaller
antennas,(shorter wavelength) making the UHF segment more desirable for
portable operations. Best policy is to use the VHF band for TV and save UHF
for other uses.
Interesting enough a 5 Watt "S" Band link transmitter carries the video
signal to the local cable TV companies that serve 90% of the viewers. Only
10% receive their TV signals over the air!
That is how it is done in Southern California.
73,
Art KC6UQH

Wyatt. Ernie has given you some good suggestions. It probably is the
amplifier it self... But back in the day of analog TV a neighbor was having
similar issues and I solved it by finding the power supply to his amp and
doing some ferrite bead work with it..the signal was running up the power
cord. Robert Oler WB5MZO

the antenna system. All consumer type powered TV splitters are broadband and
will amplify everything from 50 mhz to 700 mhz. That is the problem, since
your two meter signal is in the middle of the amp's passband. Any strong
signal in the range from 50 to 700 mhz will swamp the transistors in the
amplified splitter and block TV signals from being received. After he
removes the amplified splitter, he can replace it with a passive splitter.
Hopefully he is close enough to the TV stations that he doesn't need
amplification. If not, he may need to consider a proper high gain antenna
outside.

get a stopband filter(blocking 144 to 148), and have your neighbor place it
in between his antenna and TV amplifier. The problem is that these type of
special filters are not cheap. And the neighbor might blame you if something
happened to his TV..... ICE has a filter for this application. Not sure if
they are still in production. http://www.iceradioproducts.com/filtersrf.html

My two meter or 70 cm radios do not bother reception on either TV.

my RV. The 'batwing' type antennas that are on most RV units have a built in
amplifier in the head outside. ANY signal, even down to 1/2 watt, overloads
my amplified TV antenna in the RV and any other RV close to my 2 meter or 70
cm antennas.

There are other uses for his 'power' other than talking to satellites. This
problem will prevent him from using his two meter radio any time at his house.

I'll be darned. 9 (nine!) cubesats on board of this launch vehicle and the
whole world wide amateur radio community has major problems finding somebody
to launch 1 every 5 years ?
Whats wrong with this picture ? I would like to find out why ESA for example
has no problems launching the cubesats by the dozend? (for free i bet you),
but refuse to carry just one for us. Does somebody has ESA's email address
?? :) Is it really all about the educational aspect of things ? We can use
that sales pitch, too.

Hi Bob.
We did try. A member of AMSAT-UK was one of twenty something teams who
travelled to the Netherlands to present a case for inclusion.
Sadly not successful as we were not seen as an educational organisation.
We have been working on that image and educational outreach and hardware
ever since.
Maybe next time

BTW AlmaSat is in addition to the CubeSats on the Vega flight.
ESA's website at http://www.esa.int/esaMI/Education/SEM3N03MDAF_0.html says
that so far 6 of the possible 9 CubeSats have been delivered. Spaceflight
Now are giving launch date as end of January.

Hi Andreas,
very simple, politics.
ITAR is killing AMSAT-NA and AMSAT-DL's leadership has openly
denouced Cubesats. So two of the biggest AMSATs either can't or don't
want to. Talk about a pathetic situation for our community.
