The Deutscher Amateur Radio Club is reporting that the HAMVideo equipment
for the Columbus module of the International Space Station is currently
planned to fly on the Japanese freighter HTV4 in July 2013.

The first function test of the equipment by the astronaut Luca Parmitano,
KF5KDP may take place in August 2013.

Message-ID: <CCD44262.14387%seb@xxxxxx.xxx>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

I want to add lightning protection to my satellite station and would like
some advice.  I have a pair of SSB preamps that are powered using the coax
from my Icom IC-821 transceiver.  As a result, I need protectors that don't
block DC and will pass 13.8 VDC.

I've had good luck with PolyPhaser protectors in other applications, but
their new owners (Protection Technology Group) have apparently discontinued
the PolyPhaser products that would pass DC.

Alpha Delta makes some surge protectors that will pass DC, for example their
ATT3G50.

Does anyone have any experience with the Alpha Delta protectors or with
another brand that they would recommend?

Thanks and 73, Steve N9IP

Steve,

I have always used separate power lines.  However, I have used Alpha Delta
protectors, both in switches and stand alone, with no problems.  About 25
years ago I had a nearby strike.  The cartridges were blown, but nothing was
damaged in the station.

73s,

I just listened for any signs of life on the AO-27 Pass 1831 UTC 23 Nov 2012
in FN42be .. Nothing heard, checked the AO-27 web page and no new info since
21 October. My guess is that AO-27 has met its demise for Amateur Radio FM
work. RIP, that's 2 down for 2012 as far as FM goes.

73,   Craig

Interested in upgrading your satellite radio?

HRO offers $500 price reduction for the IC-9100.

$505 discount offer from GigaParts.

Have fun!
