Good morning,

I prepared a tool to determine frequency in dvbgui, usable in Excel or in Open Office sheet. The tool is very simple, you have to insert "LO" (Local Oscillator Frequency) in a cell, and after insert the frequency readout in the BATC Wideband spectrum, over the peak of a signal. The tool eill get the frequancy that you have to insert in the dvbsgui.

Hope is useful for you.

You have done a great job !

Hi Heiner,

I have been done exactly the same. This system is very simple and useful and it's the right approach to this issue.

SO sad...great regret.

Well done Rocco !

TU !

Hi all,

it's so difficult to receive confirmation in HF, on Oscar-100, after 30 Qso, only three confirmed. Someone tell about possibility to reach DXCC with QO-100, but continuing on this way it will be possible in 100 years, more or less...

Matt you are so lucky, 37 % of success is agreat result.

ik4idy :

as Oh3WE wrote

"The pair of fets have very different biases. The other one warms up and draws a lot of current, about 50 watts of idle power warms up the shack.

Nevertheless the system delivers 70 watts output (perhaps more)."

I think this amp is also configured as a dohery type. The LDMOS in the middle of the PCB is the main amp an the one to the Corner is the Peak amp.

If you supply the 28V and measure only abt 1,9A current and only the main amp gets warm then you are sure. The gate bias on the main is about 2V, on the peak amp bias about 1,8V.

If properly "snowflaked" you can expect about 30% of the rated CW power on 2,4GHz with a relatively poor effectivity of abt 20-25%. If this LDMOS are the -130 types then expect not than 85W from that amp.

Tu, giving up on this amplifier...

Sure! In the picture you'll see my homemade "connectors" using dual row, 2mm spaced pin array. Covered with hot melt glue. Original SMP output was located on the right of the circulator, ugly replacement SMA soldered instead. Could not find a SMP mating connector so I let it go.

Hi,

have you some information about modification and power supply for this amp ?

Thank you.

G4IUG x250 17db and x250-1 31db that is the main difference.. hope this helps you.

Heiner,

IU2KAC, ask more information about the development of an amplifier, built using the module described.

Would you get more information about it ?

Thank you.

Quote from IU2KAC

Qualcuno ha acquistato il modulo PA da 250 Watt?

Perché nessuno ne parla? ...

Perchè se chiedi in italiano forse hanno problemi a risponderti .

Because if you ask in Italian they have some issues to answer...

Just for curiosity, has 9700 the "Frequency Transverter" capability like TS2000 ?

This is very good to set up frequency indicator to 10.490.xxx and 2400.xxx for a "right" frequency information.

Thank you.

Regards.

I made it.BG0AUB QO100 DATV QPSK 1/2 10496.625 125k thank from M0SKM signal report.

Now I use is the circular polarization feed narrowband communications.How to make a line polarization feed for DATV launch?Who can help me...

Zhao Feng,

the RHCP polarization is right, WB and NB trasnponders have the same polarizzation, but keep in mind that the feeder must be LHCP, due to "mirror" effect of the dish that change polarization. Furthermore if you are using a helix feed, this can be user for both transponders, but it's clear that when you transmitting on WB, you cannot do the same on NB, and viceversa (but if you have two TX dish, yes).

I hope having understood your request.

Congratulations for your's operation from China.

Regards an 73.

Minimize the Mini-System - Searching the Satellite

Hallo,

another idea to reduce. The combination of LNB with horn and a scanner was used to check a location because of trees and buildings which prevent receiving.

The CW-Beacon helps to find a gap.

Nice job

Hi All,

Maintenance has completed ahead of schedule, so the BATC & AMSAT-UK Narrowband WebSDR & Wideband Spectrum Monitor are now back open for use.

Thanks for your patience!

Thank you. The service helps all to use in a best way the wb transponder.

You doing a great service for all amateur community.
