Nice to see the outdoor satellite operation by the Digital Rancher. I am a different type of 'lazy' indoor operator. I use my IC 2730 dual bander full duplex radio and homebrew Moxon Yagi just outside my shack, on the balcony. I keep it at a low fixed elevation and point it in the direction of maximum elevation azimuth just prior to the satellite pass. That way I can cover four minutes of a pass. I do the Doppler tuning manually using Argentinian Amsat satellite pass webpage displayed on my mobile phone during the pass. 73 de Jon, VU2JO

I am not going to lie, I am coping @digital.rancher setup. There is no reason to recreate the wheel on this one.

@@GraymanPOTA Of course @digital.rancher setup is the most popular way for satellite operations and probably the least expensive also. Moreover the whole pass can be covered and some lucky ones get direct astronaut contacts as well. 73
