Hi Luciano, PT9KK Using FM work through VO-52 is the crazy idea coming from those that having anymore FM satellite like AO-51 are trying to infect the only satellite with a good linear transponder for CW and SSB Imagine a crazy presentation : "How to use a linear transponder with your HT and arrow antenna" ! I agree with you, keep VO-52 only for CW and SSB and use SO-50 for FM 73" de i8CVS Domenico _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
