Not wanting to reinvent the wheel. Anyone using the FT-8800R mobile for
satellites have any hints or sugestions, antennas etc. Email direct-thanks.
Hi,
I am using FT-8900R (practically same as '8800 plus 6m and 10m) for working
satellites
from my car.
For sat ops mobile, you will get the most success out of a 1/4 wave antenna on
a good ground plane. It will give you a hemispherical emission pattern so that
any direction in LOS is equally covered.
