[amsat-bb] L band gear

[Glenn Miller - AA5PK]

Bob,

I'm using an IC-0700 at 10 watts into a horizontal Directive Systems 45-el loop yagi fed with 23 feet of LMR-400.
The yagi was resonant at 1289 MHz out of the box, but I managed to get it down a bit by manipulating the drive and reflector 
element.  Still show a somewhat high SWR at 1269.  But it works.
