Look at SSB or ARR  -- both good but SSB has slightly better reports from  
folks I know using them.

[amsat-bb] Re: 70cm preamp

2009-11-26 Thread Glen Zook
Ramsey actually has a pretty good low noise preamp for 70 cm and those are 
cheap.  Takes about 15 minutes to assemble the kit.  I do recommend replacing 
the fixed capacitor across the coil with a variable.  That way you don't have 
to "fiddle" with bending the coil to tune it.  You just "set" the coil and then 
use the variable to adjust the actual frequency.

I bought one of the 70 cm kits and one of the 222 MHz kits several months ago.  
Both of them work very well.  The 222 MHz has a slug tuned coil but the 70 cm 
is fixed and you are supposedly to tune it by moving the turns around.  But, 
MUCH easier to adjust if you replace the fixed capacitor with a variable.

I am almost sure that they ship internationally.  The kits are less than $15 
U.S.

Hello all,

UO-11 heard in the UK on the 09:20 pass.

I have a recording of the middle one minute of the pass (6 minutes after AOS). 
It's not brilliant but someone might be able to decode it.

2009-11-26 Thread Louis McFadin
Luc,
The ARISS VHF/UHF antennas were funded entirely by AMSAT-NA and some 
volunteers. Would you you like to join the ranks of those who contributed? If 
so you know how to contact Martha.
What are you implying here?
Of course you seemed to miss the part about the V and U antennas and the "and 
volunteers" as opposed to the L& S antennas which were a separate project 
conducted by the ARISS Europe team. The L & S antennas were especially 
difficult since they had to withstand the launch environment of the Shuttle 
payload bay. I think the ARISS Europe team overcame very difficult obstacles 
including technical and financial. They are to be commended for their work and 
tenacity. The operative thing here is performance and achievement rather than 
talk.

Depending whether you classsify AO-7 as a LEO bird - (with an orbital height
of 1400Km) - the current record there
is 7500 - 7700Km, by several stations.

2009-11-26 Thread Dave Taylor
We plan to use the V/U antenna with the Ericsson HTs (VHF and UHF)  
that were the original ham equipment aboard ISS.  However, power  
hookups in Columbus differ from other parts of ISS and the Ericssons  
won't be operational until we can design, build, and fly a new power  
distribution box.  Work is underway for this.

The L and S band antennas were managed from Europe and I haven't heard  
how equipment for them is coming along.
