Hello Hinko,
Thank you for the information. I know absolutely NOTHING about this test????
I assume that you were listening last night. It is really unfortunate that we
may have missed their test. I will see if I can find out some information and
let you know.
Your 6 ft dish seems to be working FB

Hi Barry
We tried to receive DK0SB on 24Ghz via moon, but we heard no signal.
We heard on 24.192.100 +-doppler, is this the correct frequency?
or 24.048.100?
We use a smal dish ( 6feet), and we receive the moon noise about 0.8db and the sun
with 8.5db.
when will the next test on 24Ghz be.
Please give me a note.

Joe,
I'm joining you on the side lines. My az/el mountg did not hold up to hurricane
Jeanne. Also my fiberglass feed pole snapped in half, even though it was guyed
in 2 different places with philystran.
The dish came out ok. Hope to have a crane in next week to drop dish and mount.
I plan to build a much stronger mount this time. Back on by 2nd leg of ARRL,
maybe, by first of the year 2005, sure thing.
I still have sky miles set a side to help with your mount, as long as Delta holds
out. You are retiring soon correct???
