Re: [amsat-bb] Plug and play AO-40 RX antennas?

["Will Rogers" <w4wlr@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi!

Running the N3IYR 3 foot dish... can't get any more plug and play than this
one... have AO40 beacon at s6 right now thru some trees... works well..Have
the UEK-3000 converter.  That works well too.

Hope this helps!
