I have been active in Amatuer Satellite Communications for many years.
I dismantled the Satellite Station in Order to Set Up an EME Station on 2 Meters. Was off the birds for about 2 years.
Today November 4th 2007, I am back on the Birds. AO-51 pass indicates that all is working well again.
I am using SatPC32 tracking software, purchased from AMSAT. Rotor interface is a W0LMD Sat Tracker Jr. which works great.
Mast mounted Preamps: 2m - SSB Electronics, 70cm - Icom AG-35, 23cm - SSB Electronics. All preamps fed with 1/2" Heliax, with a short section of LMR400UF between antennas and preamps.
