[amsat-bb] Beam for 70cm Uplink on AO-40

["Christensen, Eric" <CHRISTENSENE@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have seen that most people are using circularly polarized or
cross-polarized beams for the 70cm Uplink.  Then I see that the DXpedition
on Christmas Island is using just a horizontally polorized beam for their
uplink (maybe...  Just saw the picture
(http://www.qsl.net/vk9xt/images/ao40.jpg) and I am assuming that they are
using it for the uplink.  Does this mean that I can use a regular beam for
435MHz horizontally???
