RE: [amsat-bb] Echo S Band on 1630Z pass

Jerry:

Question for you.  Are you using a AZ/EL rotor for aiming your s band
dish ?  I was just getting set up for AO-40 when it went silent so I
don't have a lot of experience in this area.

Hello again,

Wow, that S band transmitter is something. Peaking at the end of the
FT847 
s-meter, S9+40 and more. Using my AO-40 configuration, N3IYR dish into 
UEK3000 downconverter. Had no trouble manually finding the signal once I

saw in the telemetry that the S band transmitter was on.

Now to put that configuration into my Radio Tuner database so I can just

switch the frequency. Hi

Jerry, W6IHG
