[amsat-bb] AO51 Signals

[Andrew Rich]

Hello

I built a 10 turn helix for 435 MHz.

I have 15 meters of RG-213.

Radio is an ICOM 706 mkii G

I am not getting strong signals like I would have expected ?

Can someone share their setups and signal strengths ?

Maybe a pre-amp might help ?

Am I getting too much loss in the cable ?
