Hi
On the satellites I am running a Icom IC402
on TX to a 2N5946 to a MRF646 and the final
two mrf648 transistors giving up to 120w out
to 6.2 metres of beldon 9913 coax to a
twenty element DL6WU beam. On RX there is
an eleven element beam to BF981 pre amp to a
old FDK Multi 2000 transceiver. This was my
my Old AO-10/13 system.
For Hamsat I run my trusty IC402 and my
2N5946 to a MRF646 now at 12w . The amp is
in the roof of my 2 story house with the
antenna's on top. I am running the amp on
low volts to keep the power down. It's
around 12 v.( 1 diode in series )
On receive I am using a FTV250 to my
FT101zd MK2 and no pre amp in the roof.
FO-29, I use 20 elements a 435MHz cavity
filter a pre amp , microwave modules
435-28 MHz converter to FT101zd mk2.
TX IC202s and QQU6/40 amp 2m cavity
filter and 11 element yagi. So there
is quite a job to change from mode B
to J. I will have it all set up so
it's easy to change over so I can
try FO-29.
On Hamsat I have worked ZL1AOX Ian,
ZL2AVL Alan, VK3KOS Rob, VK3FI Norm,
VK3UH Len, VK3YFL Byron, VK3FGN Noel,
VK4JWT John, VK3KAI Peter, ZL2LN Barry,
VK3YDK Ken, VK3HV George, VK4ZQ Roy,
VK2TS Tony, VK1ZQR Roy, VK4AFL Trever,
VK2ZCD Ian, ZL1DK David, ZL2FNF Julan,
VK2AWD David, VK3JT Bill, ZL1HAU Sunny,
VK6HK Don, VK2ECW David, VK2TRF Jack.
Finally I have had over 100 contacts.
In Europe or USA this number would be
ten times this number.
