I wasn't going to say anything but now that Gerald brings it up, N
Connectors for LMR400 and similar cables are available from several sources
(including Texas Towers).  Given that, it seemed like a lot of work to me
also.

This is certainly a novel approach to making UG21 connectors work with
LMR400 cable. But, considering you can buy brand new N connectors with
silver
plated center pin for only $5.95 (at Texas Towers) it seems like a lot of
work  to maybe reuse an old connector. New UG21 connectors cost as much as
one
that  fits properly so there is no cost savings going that route.

Regular L:MR400 uses a copper plated aluminum center conductor. Messing
with the center conductor on that cable is going to damage the copper
plating;
making it impossible to solder.

Glenn  Little and others,

There is a neat way to use type N connectors on  LMR400 and LMR400UF. I
wrote
an article for QST/QEX on the method and  passed it to Ray Mack, W5IFS, who
is an editor for QEX. He has not passed  the article on as yet, though.
Basically, the diameter of the inner  conductor is too large for the
typical
N connector, therefore that  diameter must be reduced to fit. The way to do
that reduction effectively  when you are making up a number of cables is to
make a set of "Center  Conductor Reduction Dies." Start with inch-long
sections of 3/8-inch cold  rolled steel and drill all the way through each
piece with a series of  numbered drills starting with the largest drill
that
is the diameter of  the center conductor and ending with the drill that
just
enters the center  pin of the N connector. This work is best done on a
metal
working lathe to  get a concentric hole. Center drill the entry end to
provide a starting  chamfer. Using a thin cutoff wheel in your Dremel
Moto-Tool, make two  cross cuts on the centerline to about 1/8-inch below
the
chamfer on that  end and once on the other end without a chamfer. Now,
using
the dies in  descending sequence, chuck the die in an electric drill. Strip
the end of  the cable and expose a little more of the center conductor than
is needed.  Insert the cable into the reduction die and spin the drill
motor
until the  end reaches the insulation (there will be a short section of
unreduced  center conductor). Reverse the die in the drill and finish the
cut
to the  insulation. Move to the next die. Occasionally, trim the copper
flash
that  develops. Stop when the center conductor enters the center pin of the
N
connector. For LMR400UF, you must make the center conductor a solid
conductor by tinning the exposed center conductor. Again, inspect the face
of the insulation and remove any copper flash to prevent a possible short.
Now, you can assemble the cable to the N connector just as you would
assemble it using RG8 cable. The cutting edges of the reduction die are
those slots that you cut using the Dremel (you could do it with a hack saw
as I did at first, but the Dremel is much faster). I have assembled about
40
N-M and N-F connectors to LMR400 cables using this method which really
beats
trying to reduce the center conductor with a file when you have many
connectors to install.

I have placed my personal photos from Dayton 2009 on my personal website as

These include some of Owen Garriott, W5LFL, and Richard Garriott, W5KWQ.
The full resolution versions are in the simple directory

Anyone doing a publication is welcome to use any of these photos in
exchange for a simple photo credit.

Warning: these photos are completely unsorted, have no captions, and

It's possible. Hopefully it just hit the low voltage watchdog. I don't have
a pass until this afternoon, so would someone on the west coast or elsewhere
listen to see if the 435.150 transmitter is on? If 435.150 is still on, we
probably just didn't move the power output down far enough and tripped on
low voltage.

Shamai,

the assignement isn't complete. All cubesats are pretty close together.
Try one of these TLE. CP6 is perhaps Object C, not sure with the other ones.

PharmaSat and CP6 are active and rather strong. Good luck :-)

We have had TLM data from two passes of AO-51 today, one around 14:20,
another around 16:00 UTC.

Make that 5 passes (I didn't look deep enough down the list).

See http://www.amsat.dk/oz7sat/tlm/view.php?sat=ao51 and ask it to
analyze a 1000 records.

I just got a note from Gould and he caught it at the end of the 1300 pass
