Dear All,
We are trying to setup determine how to setup the M2 436CP42UG & 436CP30
antennas for fixed LHCP polarity. However the manual only provides
instructions for RHCP.
Tried to Google this up but failed to find any information too. Any
pointers or advice will be greatly appreciate.
Thank you.

A friend of mine discovered that M2 actually has polarity reversers for
their CP 2m and 70cm antennas. They are several hundred USD, but you might
look at the manual to get a hint at how they do it. I'm guessing it might
be reversing which elements have the delay line, in fact it's probably a
different delay line since the horizontal and vertical elements are a bit
offset from each other. Hope this helps.

Hello Sion
it is easier then you think, i made it also with a relay as M? does, i use a
Tohtsu 120 coax relay on 1 off the 2 directors. Just switching the CENTER
conductor at 1 director changes the polarisation;
without a relay, just turn 1 dipole opposite so the center conductor is on
the other side of the boom,this gives the other polarisation;
you can buy a switch from M?, but very pricy for +-1m alu element, 1 relay
in a alu box
i made myself that switches, and works FB; i also made a 4pol switch for 2m
and 70cm with 4 cx-120 types per box, but on 70cm i gonna change them into 4
SMA relays i found on a hamfest, they have less loss.
best 73's
Jerry

Hi Enzo,
Of both LilacSat's, only LilacSat-1 has a camera that can be commanded
remotely by Amateurs.
You can use gr-satellites or gr-lilacsat to decode the downlink and
receive the images. See these posts:
https://destevez.net/2018/09/playing-with-lilacsat-1/
https://destevez.net/2017/01/open-telecommand-for-by70-1/
(Note that the camera system of LilacSat-1 is the same as the one in the
now deorbited BY70-1, so everything in the second post applies to
LilacSat-1 as well).
73,
Dani.

The afternoon around 2030 utc in the west coast I worked a gentleman, I
thought was VE6DTX and he gave me a grid at DO81 but there is nothing on
QRZ.com.??? My callbook with N3FJP gave me FN04.????? Though both are new
for me, I'd like any confirmation that I worked and copied his call correctly

Jerry,
Definitely they switch one of the driver element per the WEB site
explanation as you explained.
However, I am curious to know how you do so with one Tohtsu 120 coax relay
which is a one pole 2 way switch as both the outer screen and the inner
connector of the coax has to be switched.
Could you please share, if possible post a sketch on the WEB?
