Rick,
FO-29 has a strong CW beacon at 435.795 +/- Doppler. It's down there by itself
and easy to find.
Also most downlink signals are concentrated and very strong around 435.850 +/-
10 midway in?the pass band.
Are you working or hearing any other sats?

Thanks for all the suggestions. I found my problem was rain on my homebrewed
double moxon. I haven't had time to take it down and see if I can repair it
as it worked quite well. but I just bought an m2 eggbeater for 70 cm that
should be much more reliable at the vacation qth. Things had been working
fine with a few contacts on the home brew antenna until the rains came.

Let me know if anyone had a m2 70cm eggbeater they want to sell. I'm tired
of working with these home brewed antennas! The weather gets to them too
easily and my 2meter m2 eggbeater works great!

Thanks all for your help on this issue. I think with that help I've got
it figured out.
Thanks again,

Hi all,
With reference to my posting to the Amsat news bulletin quoting a
restriction zone imposed effecting the the amateur VHF/UHF bands for the
London
Olympics.
I appears that I need to clarify my statement regarding operation via the
amateur satellites.
The following was posted to me: "There is no problem with 2O12L using 435
MHz, it's 432 MHz that they cannot use".
Thus meaning that AO -7 cannot be used for mode "B" operation within the
imposed zone of course.
Operation on other amateur satellites should therefore be possible.
Apologies.

Hi, thanks for reading.
I have to replace the relay for RHCP/LHCP switching of the VHF model
because it is no longer switching.
Is there anybody out there who knows where I can get these?
