[amsat-bb] Sun sensor for calibrating antenna pointing

[David Reinhart <wa6ilt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Going through back issues of the Journal looking for the article on the
"smart level" I found an article on using the Sun to calibrate (as
oppose to directly measure) antenna position.  It's  by Darrel Emerson,
AA7FV, in the Jan/Feb 1995 issue on page 14.  It's a simple photocell
device that you put up on the antenna.  It's worth another look.
