Equipment at VE3NPC is a 52 turn helix with reflector cup into a DEM
preamp and downconverter into SatPC32 controlled FT-736 for 13cm.
Uplink FT-847 with 2 watts into 2 x 6 el quagis for 2m.
Complete info on the 52 turn helix in the Sept/Oct 2008 AMSAT Journal
Its not as good as the 1.2 meter dish it replaced but performs quite well
considering its overall size.

Hi All,
Last night I was finally able to get everything to work and made my first
contact through the ISS V/U crossband repeater.
It took a lot of work setting up antenna's in the attic, SatPC32 for the
frequencies (TNX to David - KG4ZLB/M?ZLB for help with this) and TNX to N5UXT
for hearing me and contact (Angelo, QSL is in the mail)!
The pass last night (0420 UTC) was orderly (IMHO) and enabled me to make a
contact with a modest set-up - small 435 yagi for RX (fixed AZ and EL) and a
J-pole for 45 watts TX - all in the attic.
My wife did not understand my determination to make a contact thru/with ISS
before Jan 15 - hi hi
Now on to the sat's!
TNX AGN to David and Angelo! I was like a kid at Christmas!
