This sounds like something that should be on the AMSAT site.  A number of
sample (working) satellite stations for working the various satellites, or
at least some links to representative sites...

Subject: [amsat-bb] Starting Up

I'm a month away from retirement and intend to build my first satellite 
station from the ground up.  I'd be interested in suggestions for a 
complete station:  So far I have an Icom 910 and Mac Doppler Pro and am 
a member of AMSAT.  Beyond that, I'd like specific suggestions for a 
complete station from the rig to the antenna in fine detail from coax 
to pre-amps to station accessories, software, you name it; from the IC 
910 to the satellites (AO 40 included) and back, what do I need?.  
What's your dream station?  Brand names would help.  My only limits are 
antenna covenants which will require me to mount antennas on a small 
motorcycle trailer to be wheeled outside as needed.  Thanks in advance 
for any ideas.  Ralph, K0HML.
