Mobile antennas are designed to radiate at low angles and typically don?t
work that well. They?re omnidirectional and omnis just don?t perform well on
satellite in general. It always seems mobile stations make more chaos than
QSOs. That said, I have used my Diamond NR770HAB a few times to work AO-85
on some relatively low (<15?) passes while cruising through the Mojave
desert with ok success.

Keep in mind that you?ll be fixed polarity and will experience ?deep fades?.
If you?re going to try it then keep calling to a minimum because there?s a
good chance there will be times when the bird is hearing you but you?re not
hearing it and end up stepping on people like all mobile stations seem to do.

SAT Gridders,

I'm taking a "Bucket List" Trip to Alaska next week to check off a few
items. Going to Fairbanks from 8/2 through 8/8 and taking my regular
Rover Gear - IC820H & Arrow w/tripod. Plan is to activate BP64 and
a couple nearby Grids - holiday style. That means I'll pop up on various
Satellites with no strict schedule other than a Twitter Message with a few
hours notice. LoTW upload upon return.

Items to be checked off are: 1) 43rd State visited - AK; 2) Arctic Circle;
3) Denali Visit; 4) 112th Grid activated and hopefully more; 5) Northern
Lights - KYFC; 6) Almost Midnight Sun

I found the installation information (pictures only)  of this PAT15 board

Mark is right on - the DK3WN website is full of helpful info and software.

Another great site that does a nice job familiarizing you with the concept
of several pieces of software all working together is:

http://www.pe0sat.vgnet.nl/decoding/block-diagram/

... plus you'll find lots of other useful information on Jan's website in

Thanks Scott,

The information re the details from PE0SAT will be a great help.

I am sure I will need more help though, it is "lonely" down here, having
this type of interest.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the comments.

Would it be possible for you to give me more detailed information as to what
I need.

I have looked at DL3WN's site, do I need to install AGWPE etc??


Advice please


Best wishes

The Fox satellites are easy, I can receive and decode them perfectly.

I would like information on how to find software to decode the various

I have beams suitable for EME on 144 and 432 so receiving the
