[amsat-bb] 1.2G portable antennas

[Patrick STODDARD (WD9EWK/VA7EWK)]

Hi Bob!

Yes, a variety of antennas are being used to work the AO-92
1.2 GHz uplink. There was a recent thread about this topic
on here. My contribution to the previous thread was:

Several of us are using the Alinco DJ-G7T HT for the 1.2 GHz
uplink, and its 1W transmitter power is adequate - subject to
the details of the pass you are working, your surroundings,
how you are tuning to compensate for uplink Doppler, etc. ...

73!
