[amsat-bb] 10GHZ preparation

[Luc Leblanc]

In view of what's is planned for the next P3E HEO i want to try some 10ghz band experiment

I got a local Hamfest a Hughes LNA P/N 1011836-0009 personal earth station. My first google search does not give any results nor a direct 
call to Hughes company who even give less results...

This LNA has a N type connector on it marked IF a F connector marked LNC another F marked POINTING and on the side another F connector on 
probably the LNA model PLV-810A. There is a rotary adjustable ring for vertical or horizonthal polarisation and a hand writing note 
"10-15GHZ KU" the TX power is 1Watt.

If someone is aware ot the use of this PES or know where to get some manual it will help me to see if i can put this on the air?

You can see a similar unit on e-bay at http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:VRI&item=110395595319



Thank's
