Tried out a new L/U setup before the snow starts. Good D/L using 910 /
Spirit-2 setup with WA4SXM the only one getting into the bbs. Negative
results on the U/L using a 50 watt amp and a comet CYA-1216E yagi, vertical

Hi Tony,
I assume you are referring to the IC-R7000 scanning receiver (not their R7000
transceiver). If I recall, it's on the bottom side somewhere, pretty easy to
access. It's a coin type, but with tabs that solder onto two posts on the PC
board. Be VERY careful about static discharge and such when doing the
surgery, and remember that you are operating on a live circuit. I managed to
zap mine, and it more than lost its mind. Had to send it to a shop for
repair, and then I had to nag them to fix it as they decided to try to go out
of business after I sent it...
Good luck,
Greg KO6TH

Sam
There are several TNC's available I use, Paccomm Spirit-2, 38k4, 96k.
KPC-9612 plus, 1200, 96k or 38k4 listen only. Symek made in Germany, TNC3S,
TNC31S, 1200, 96k or 38k4 sat model. There are others the BB can address.
Depending on the radio you have you have to purchase or make your own data
cables to hook them all together..
If you mention the radio you plan on using members of the BB doing 96k
digital and having your rig would hopefully be encouraged to provide their
experiences.
I prefer using my Spirit-2 for 96K with my IC910.

Hello
Before I reinvent the wheel I want to run this project by you. My current
satellite antenna system is on a 15 foot tripod using a G5400 az/el rotors.
Consists of 14 el cp 2M yagi, 40 el cp 70 cm yagi, 3 foot dish for S band 16
turn helix for L band. I want to change the tripod to a 30 foot tower and add
a 5 el 6 M beam. Question- put the satellite antennas just above the top of
tower and the 6M beam above the satellite ants. high enough as not to
interfere with the sat. antennas when rotated in elevation. Then if possible
have the whole thing being able to tip over. Has anyone come close to doing
something like this? Or any ideas.

I did something similar when I lived in Los Angeles. I mounted a 5-element
10-meter beam under the satellite antennas on the tower in the attached
photo. This required increasing the length and wall thickess of the mast and
changing the azimuth rotator to a more powerful version. Note that the tower
is the heavy-duty model and has an extension to accomodate a thrust bearing.
The tower was not fully extended in that configuration so that the top of
the new mast didn't exceed the original height of 45 feet.
However, I reread a mechanical engineering textbook from college and did the
necessary calculations to prove that it wouldn't blow over before trying it.
The wind load has to be kept close to the tower. CP yagis have a much lower
wind load than a 3 foot dish so this my not work in your case.
The 6 m beam or the 3 foot dish could be mounted separately as I did in the
photo.

John

Bob, did you mean to say to place the 6 meter beam BELOW the satellite
antennas? Why would you want to elevate the 6 meter beam? I
personally would not add that additional strain to the elevation rotor
of the G5400.

I don't know your specific antennas, and may not provide much help
with this - but over the years the question has come up more than once...
Several years back I had posted some spacing/phasing information on my
website, and Google still sends people looking for the old files.
I've added a new page that has this old information, if it helps any.
http://wb5rmg.somenet.net/2009/20090119.html - Your mileage may vary.
Others may have better answers. Let us know what works best for you.

Does anyone know if the ISS will continue to use the v/u freqs 145.99 67hz
up and 437.8 down or will they revert back to the other v/u frequencies?
Seems that the new freqs are much easier to use since dopler shift is less a
problem on the uplink. It also appears that the u/v repeater is off. Does
anyone know the schedule?
Thanks, Tom W5KUB
