      @VE9ASN well I tried a 15 element 70cm yagi and it got stuck. Not sure of the weight difference but I'd be leary...

    • @VE9ASN
      @VE9ASN 5 часов назад

      @w8cptCptDon did you have it centered, or use a counterweight of some sort, or was the majority of the weight far from center?

      @VE9ASN yes centered the weight...

      No I haven't I believe you need another circuit board ordered separately for wifi

    For those having the time and inclination, you can get a ham operators license. Study on-line free. sample tests. Contact local ham organization. Local study and test administration $10. Radio: many models under $100. This is not an ad. You don't have to learn Morse code. In case of an EMP, this may be the only form of communication.

    • @w8cptCptDon
      @w8cptCptDon 28 дней назад

      You can search that on Google. 437.800 is the receive frequency... you don't need anything to listen but need a ham radio license to transmit...

    I was glad to catch the end of your livestream, just went and watched the whole thing. I am running a vertical, so it was good to hear that nugget of info about verticals. I'm using a kenwood tm-v71 at 50w with a comet gp-9 about 25' off the valley floor surrounded by mtns. I'm hoping to catch the next pass tonight but it might be out of my reach. 73's!

    Hey Don.. don't know if this is a lot of extra work.. but a suggestion.. maybe put timestamps in your video description of who you made contacts with and people can skip to hear themselves.

    I have just discovered the Antrunner and wondered if you could answer some questions for me. Firstly does it come with a controller to position the rotator for each satellite pass or is that a separate item and secondly if it does come with a controller is there a wifi connection between the PC and the rotator or does it need to be hardwired? Another question, is the Antrunner's suitability for outdoor use as there appears to be no attempt to waterproof any of its parts from the weather? Is it OK for permanent outdoor use?? I was initially looking at the SARCTRAC system which looked really good only to hear that it is no longer in production sadly. Cheers Ian VK5AIB

    • @w8cptCptDon
      @w8cptCptDon Месяц назад

      You have to hard wire it to a PC and use Gpredict. They do sell a wireless module but the seller told me it doesn't work well and they recommend hard wired...and it's definitely not something you leave outside the Circuit Board and motors are exposed.

    There was a lot of enthusiasm in our local ham community during SSTV events. Even those who were not on regular LEO satellite operations also particpated using their VHF radio and Robot36 app on the mobile phone. It was a wonderful experience to see the image shaping up from the buzzing noise!
