Re: [amsat-bb] AO-27 Help THANKS!

[Allen Emer <aemer@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Tim,

One other little piece of advise for working AO27 with a HT whip...rotate
the HT around to hear the best signal.
Lots of times pointing straight down or left /right will help its
polarization. You'll be amazed what a difference
the position of you antenna will make.

Good Luck
