I came across this info, might be of some value.
Ref: The Satellite Experimenters Handbook, Pg 9-6
Max Dist (range) = 2R * arcos [R/(R+h)]
Where R = 6,371 km and
h = 1,459 km at Apogee (AO-7)
h = 1,440 km at Perigee (AO-7)
Therefore the maximum possible communication distance via
I'll be on from the EL17 / EL18 line tomorrow (Friday) on two SO50 passes
(local AOS at 26/1840Z and 26/2022Z) as well as AO27 which switches to VOX at
26/1957Z.
We're taking Saturday off, but I'll operate from the EL28 / EL29 line on Sunday
on the four AO27 and SO50 passes between 28/1800-205
Hello (again)
Disragard my 910 question. I actually read the manual, where is says hold the
p. amp/att button for one second. I'll go back in my corner now.

Hello 910 owners
I am trying to get my AG-25 preamp running. In the set mode- I set the pre 144
to on. Should I then be able to measure 12v at the 2M antenna output to run
the preamp? I get nothing.

Congratulations Bob and Paul!
This is an outstanding accomplishement - regardless of any record - and yet
another example of why so many of us think so much of Grand Old AO-7.

To night at abt 9.17 gmt on AO7 , mode B Bob W7LRD and myself confirmed
working each other ,exchanged reports etc and was very workable below 0.3 deg !
althrough not a record cn87 to io92bx works out to be 7504.52 km distance but
may well be a United Kingdom A07 record?? thanks Bob and thanks
Congratulations Bob! Success is sweet and I see you have already found a
new mountain to conquer, hihi.

We have been trying many weeks to have a simple QSO, with several near misses.
At 2120Z via AO-7 I got a, "you are 5/1 here". At 7504 km not a record, but a
real fun effort. Next is Eric-PA1TNO, I may have to go portable on a nearby
mountain.

If someone personally knows either Alan Kung, BA1DU or Shaomin Fan, BA1EO,
would you please write me off-list for a personal inquiry?
Many thanks.
