[amsat-bb] Re: 145 MHz IF on V/s?

Kyle:

I am using a K5GNA downcoverter with the IF set for 145.  I dont 
experience any desense in V/S mode.  I have tried two different antennas 
and still no desense.  I do have the antenna set for vertical 
polarization and the VHF uplink beam is set for horizontal polarization.
