[amsat-bb] FO-29

[WILLIAMS MICHAEL]

From:  ANS-216  AMSAT Weekly Bulletins
   
  "The transponder is very sensitive so please refrain from using high
power because 200 watt EIRP is more than enough."

  I gave a 579 report to K9CIS's 200mW in a CW QSO.
   
  Yes, the FO-29 transponder is working very well. I normally have to back off the power to the FT-847's minimum setting above 20 degrees elevation.
