Building a Portable Satellite Station

Ғылым және технология

I will be building a portable Satellite Station along with a Arrow 2 2M / 70cm antenna. I will also find some gotchas along the way.

    Frank, when you're as awesome as you are, you don't need an intro video. Haters gonna hate!

    Nicely done. Having the antenna mounted to the tripod is a great idea.

    how does this work if EVERY Element is electric connected to the same Boom? In all DIY Antennas I know the elements are isolatet.

    Keep at it man. Everyone starts somewhere!!! I second what W5IPA- JASON said. There is a 1/4" 20 tpi threaded hole under the foam handle. The foam may have some glue on it so be careful not to tear it. I believe that Arrow has instructions on how to remove it. 73 Brett KJ7BQQ

    I am not a fan of intro videos, I try and skip them. They usually are much louder than the content and with my hearing I have hearing aids that feed the audio to my ears and that very loud noise as I call it hurts. Or I turn it down and then miss the beginning of the video while I have to re adjust the audio.

    What kind of power is required to transmit on satellite

    It is good radio edict to use no more then 5w - 10w. Any more can grain the satellite battery faster
