Hi Bob!
Yes, a variety of antennas are being used to work the AO-921.2 GHz uplink. There was a recent thread about this topicon here. My contribution to the previous thread was:

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

My HB 5 turn helical and Alinco HT do not seem to cut it on AO-92.
Anyone else trying portable?
