KD6PAG's AO-40 page

So far, only one project documented here:

Consider building a low tech. mount for WB4APR portable dish. This is made out of lumber instead of copper tubing and using 'armstrong' rotor (e.g. operate by hand, tune by ear), and so is very easy to build. Once this works for you, then you'll have the incentive to move on to a more sophisticated receiving system.

Beware, this dish and its associated mount is not suitable for much more than a gentle wind.
