[amsat-bb] L band gear

[Greg D]

Hi Bob,

L-band here, unused for a bit.  Good reminder!

Yaesu FT-736R with the 1.2 gig module installed.  10 watts.
60-odd feet of LDF-50A hardline to the roof, with about 10' of random
RG-213 at each end
30 element beam of unknown pedigree, horizontally polarized.
Az/El rotor lash-up consisting of a ham rotor for Az, TV rotor for El,
and a homebrew controller using a Basic Stamp-II
