David and all:
I would also like to commend Dino for being honest / kind / unselfish /
experienced on the subject of G-5500.
Dino has helped me immensely to get my controller back in business. He,
like with you, spent an enormous amount of time assisting me. He
recommended me to purchased additional op amps (they cost but a few cents)
and I have use a few here and there. He also suggested, highly recommended,
the use of IC sockets so that the OpAmp can be made plug and play. It
seems as though the controller's OpAmp are pretty susceptible to RF and
mother nature. I ended up placing a trailer's 6 connector set 12" long
between each EL/AZ cables at the controller for easy quick disconnect.
Watch out for your HF station power as RF might get into the G-5500
controller as well.
Recently, I had issues with the controller's AZ needle doing the jumping
jack. Dino to the rescue!!! He pin pointed to several areas to test for
finding the solution which I took. But it ended up being water inside the
AZ cable at the rotator connector (some how my sealing of it, from recent
work, was not too good). Replacing the cable and connector took care of
business.
I hope you can get your system in place soon. G-5500 is one of the most
affordable, easy to fix, system out there for satellites.
PS: Dino is not for hire :)

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Evening all!,
Further to my original posting I just wanted to take time to thank profusely
everyone who contacted me with help but specifically I would like to mention
Dino (VE7XDT) who patiently helped me diagnose the problem by way of a huge
amount of emails back and forth and me prodding at wires with a new
multimeter bought especially for this. His ultimate diagnosis of failed op
amps in the box was confirmed by Yaesu after another hour on the phone
performing the same tests to answer their questions. A quality company, they
took their time to ensure that I was totally aware of the issues.
Unfortunately the same can't be said about HRO in Atlanta (where I purchased
the rotator two weeks ago plus a hell of a lot of other equipment). The
implied irritation level that permeated down the phone line was palpable; i
asked them to send me a new one today, take a hold on my credit card for the
full value and I would send them back the defunct one using their packaging
and then they could release my credit card hold.
Keep a good customer happy ? No chance.
He actually tried to sell me a new complete G5500 and would then give me
store credit once i sent everything back - I am not taking down the
equipment and sending it all back and then have to put everything back up
again. So the controller is now on its way to Atlanta and the Store Manager
said that he had no stock of the controller on its own but could take out
the controller from the complete kit and send that - somehow I doubt that
will happen and this will drag on and on.
Sorry to rant, I just hate bad customer service.
Anyway, thanks everyone again - I look forward to working some of you on the
satellites It's about 11 years since the last time I was active but HRO may
drag that out even further. I hope not.

About ARISS:
?
Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative
venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that
support the International Space Station (ISS).? In the United States,
sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American
Radio Relay League (ARRL), the ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote
exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEAM)
topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew
members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before
and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and
communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For
more information, see www.ariss.org.

Message-ID: <968296102.141449.1591303281842@???????.???????.???>

Hi, All:
The ARISS (Amateur Radio on the International Space Station) group of AMSAT
is in process of building new power supplies for the ARISS project. This
long-running STEM project facilitates contacts between astronauts on board
the ISS and students around the world. The first of these new power supplies
was launched to ISS on March 6. Only 9 more to go!
Part of the project involves RF hookups to diplexers to several antennas
currently on ISS. For these, we have to supply NASA-speced cable assemblies.
We have cable and Huber+Suhner N connectors, but do not have the crimping
tools required to mate the cables and connectors. These tools are available
new from either Huber+Suhner or Daniels Manufacturing but are extremely
expensive. So I am fishing... does anyone have or know where we might find
one of the following connector crimping sets that we could either borrow,
rent or buy?
The connectors (special N crimp) are Huber Suhner 11_N-50-4-63/133_NE, item
# 22652069, for cable S16 (SX_04172_B-60). We can buy these connectors from
Mouser, no problem.
The crimping tool is the problem: H+S kit 76Z-0-0-51 insert set for small
tool 76_Z-0-4-51 and small installation tool 75_Z-0-0-50. The alternative
(but not interchangeable) tool kit is Daniels Manufacturing DMC1525 (in this
kit, we only need the Y1682 die set and HX4 crimp tool).
Does anyone know where we might be able to get the use of one of these sets?
Thanks!

I have a pair of M2 CP antennas and a Yaesu G5500 rotator that I'd like to
put up. There are lots of tall trees on the property pretty close to the
house, so I really need to go up to clear the trees.
On our first house, I had a tripod on the roof, so I'm familiar with what
that takes. Now that I'm aging a bit, I was wondering what the
alternatives might be since I'm not that excited about climbing on the roof
(though if that's the best solution, I'll do it).
Here are two pictures of the house (the arrows indicate the approximate
location of the shack).

I have a lot of crimping tools, but, not these.
Have you tried to get a donation or loan of a tool from Daniels?

IMHO, a tripod on the roof may be the best way to go. Can you hire someone?

AMSAT friends:
This has been eventful year for all of us. I am no exception. I've retired
on May 9 as Chief Scientist of Virginia Tech's Hume Center for National
Security and Technology. I am now adjunct professor of Electrical and
Computer Engineering. I've been active in AMSAT for decades and am a life
member. I've been a director multiple times and an officer multiple times.
In retirement I intend becoming heavily involved in amateur radio
activities in general but specifically in AMSAT activities. I am grateful
for all I've learned and done in AMSAT. I founded http://www.hawkeye360.com
and my experience in AMSAT was a vital part of the foundation of my Hawkeye
activities.
I would like to return to the board and help steward the organization from
the board. Brennan has already received a nomination for me and now I ask
for your support.
73s. Bob N4HY

SATNOGS (SATellite Network Operated Ground Stations) https://satnogs.org/ is
a global network of automatic stations monitoring multiple satellites,
making their audio and data captures available via the Internet.
The PASS application http://amsat.org.ar/pass for satellite tracking, now
facilitates access to Satnogs for the satellite selected by clicking on the
graph that indicates azimuth and elevation.
This allows? check if a satellite is active and if there are SATNOGs
stations in your area, you can recover audio and data from previous QSOs.
We will like to deeply appreciate the Open Source Libre Space Foundation and
the thousands of SATNOG asociated stations that devote their equipment and
time to help and grow amateur satellite community.
