Hi Reid, W4UPD
As I writes in my previous message I also do not belive it is the pot in the
rotor because if the display on the control box reads correct elevation then
the 500 ohm pot into the rotor is OK
By the way if the digital display on the Easy Rotor Controller shows erratic
elevation

Domenico,
The highest voltage that I can get at full 180° flip is 2.78 volts with
voltage adjustment pot on rear of controller
Due to a big mess-up on my part, I had to switch a few things around with
LoTW.
First: (And I know I am going to get shot for doing this) All QSOs for
KD8KSN, both *portable* and from my home QTH get uploaded as KD8KSN - NOT
KD8KSN/8, /9, /0, etc. Logging it as KD8KSN will get you credit

in AM mode it just sounds like a constant tone --
The signal strength is not constant - and peaks about every 10 seconds - -
A new radar perhaps?

The 10 sec rotation rate nails it as an E6C Radar plane. Probably operating
off the East Coast. I have been
a doppler fox hunt antenna system would get the direction also.

Was everyone on AO-51? SO-50 AO-51 had a mutual pass at 2329 from DM33. I
tried SO-50 figuring it would be less crowded. I was right, I was the only one
on! I actually had to transmit the 74hz on tone before I could hear my
downlink. Toward the end of the pass it sounded like someone else was

Thanks for running that down.
And you are exactly right - I could not get seem to get a signal strength peak
at any compass heading.

When ARISSat-1 is deployed next week, confirming it will simply be pushed
outside the ISS, correct?
How closely will it emulate the orbit of the ISS? What is its intended orbit
- will it be passing the poles?
I apologize if this is covered all over the place already ...

Nice article in QST Feb 2011 pretty well spells out what they are doing
and how...

... Clint. When ARISSAT is released it will stay in the Plane of ISS
orbit...they will toss it retrograde meaning in the opposite direction of
the velocity vector and with its slightly lower velocity the orbit will
start to decrease...this is done so that very quickly the orbits will stop
Zach,
I use a single 2' long Elk antenna with 15 degrees fixed elevation. It works
well. See photos at: http://www.myhamshack.com/NZ5N/Pictures/.
Some suggest 20 or even 30 degrees fixed elevation but that's too much. You
want low fixed elevation so you will have good gain on sats when they
17 matches
