On windows install the excellent git scm. This gives you a Linux like
terminal. In that you can type git clone <url from github> and it will pull
down the Repo.

I could use some help trouble shooting my only G5400B AZ rotor. I rebuilt
the EL rotor years ago. I replaced the entire system with a 5000 at home
and now use this old 5400 at the summer place. The AZ just quite working. I
suspect it's a bad pot but could use some guideance in troubleshooting as I
don't have access to my notes from the EL rebuild years ago. What
measurements should I see at the controller interface?

Good thing we are going home in a week!

Hi

I am planning on attending the conference in November. I want to book my
flights. The conference schedule is not posted yet.

I plan on arriving Thursday afternoon.

Are there any Sunday morning activities planned? Trying to figure out what
time to leave.

I see that tours maybe planned. Any idea of the timing of these?

I haven't checked yet, does the hotel offer a shuttle bus to/from the
airport?

Any thoughts?

 Randy,
I will be in Huntsville this Friday to do a site visit and then attend the
Huntsville Hamfest on Saturday/Sunday. I should have a lot of your questions
answered upon my return.
The Marriott does offer shuttle service to an from the airport.
We are planning on tour(s) on Sunday, to include the U.S. Space and Rocket
Center, with hopes of a guided tour of Marshall Space Flight Center.

I have the same situation as K7AGE.  I totally understand that this is not
certain, but if there were a guided tour of MSFC, do you think it is likely
to be on Monday?  If there is any chance of that, I'll plan to return on
Tuesday!

Thanks for all the work that I know is involved in putting on the Symposium!

Looking forward to seeing your update after the hamfest.

I may want to come home on Monday if tours are on Sunday.

Thanks

Isn't there a "Download" button option where you can get the code as a
Zip file?  If that's all you want (not all the git functionality), why
not simply choose that?

You probably don't have the rest of the tool chain anyway...

Pull the manual. Should see 2.5(I see 0)-5 volts at either control
box. One is a repeat of the other.

Does it rotate?

Good luck.

I'm still experimenting with PGA103+ LNAs. I want to add a SAW filter
(70 cm) behind the LNA, but I see in some designs that in order to
protect the filter they use a diode limiter, e.g. the SKY16602-632LF.
That one uses an MLP package which you can only reflow, and don't have
that possibility. The SAW filter has a max input of 0 dBm (1 mW). Can
anybody tell me how to choose diodes in order make an anti-parallel
diode limiter myself?

Thanks for helping an RF n00b. 73 de Hans
