Hi Lucio, sorry I was reading the wrong date (20-23 March), but my statement concerning "last week" still holds
Hi Peter,
no problem. I had understood the misunderstanding.

Hi Peter,
no problem. I had understood the misunderstanding.
I made the comparison also on the WB transponder and the accounts are back. My dish was realigned like a month ago. Slightly better.
So the differences on the NB transponder seem real to me.
Images are, the first of 17-01-2019 and the second of today 24-03-2019.
Hi Peter,
between the two images there is a month of difference.
During this month I had a strong wind that moved my dish but I think I aligned it as before.
At this point I have doubts.
In essence, what changes have been made to the transponder?
73, Lucio
I tried to have the same conditions and to compare the transponder before and after the new settings.
I'm not sure if these are the real differences.
The first image is 20-02-2019, the second is today 23.03.2019
...
AMSAT-NA inexplicably became opposed to Phase 4b and Phase 4 Ground. They deliberately downplayed the project and presented it in very negative ways....
Unbelievable. I am sorry to say but I no longer recognize the Amsat that formed me from the seventies onwards.
Ciao, Lucio
The latest version of the program works on my PC Win 7. I see the beacon of QO-100, the constellation mentions to form but does not go further.
Small update.
The test I had done has no value because I discovered that the dish has moved due to the strong wind.
The MiniTiouner continues to operate (not as before) but the 7-8 dB I lost on transponders are felt.

In fact, if you put Offset -> - 09750000 or the value of your LO then you can directly enter the transponder frequency and not the conversion one.
forgive. The TV-SAT standard provides 12 Volts for Vertical polarization and 18 Volts for Horizontal polarization.
0 Hz for the low band (LO - 9750 Typ) and 22 kHz for the high band (LO - 10600 MHz Typ)
The NB transponder of QO-100 has Vertical polarization (12 Volts to LNB)
The WB transponder has horizontal polarization (18 Volts to LNB)
It will be interesting to know which components are in the square 8w version..
the bosterr should mount two of these devices.
as I said, I still do not have the booster in my hands and therefore I report what others have measured. The external power supply is internally reduced to 6 Volt. In any case, the bosterr should mount two of these devices.
DL5RDI Have you measured the output power of that WLAN booster?
My AB003 ordered in China is traveling. Others have made measurements and more or less all agree. The output is on the two Watts. The devices employed could provide 5 Watts. The manufacturer declares 8 Watts. (fantasy)
In a slight delay, the DATV RX part is OK too.
We have time ... 15 years and maybe +
It's all flying, hanging but everything seems to work.
Test in progress.
Is a relationship good in this form?

The Bochum ground station is also operational.
400 bit / s Telemetry BPSK from Bochum a few minutes ago.
great job at DSLWP-B from BG2BHC, Dwingeloo Radiotelescope PI9CAM, Reinhard Kuehn DK5LA and the whole team.
but without any more detailed location info it is difficult to recommend anything...
naturally every situation must be analyzed in the specific conditions. In any case, these two economic instruments allow you to make a very accurate aim in a few minutes. The analog instrument is very sensitive while the Sat Finder tells me if I'm aiming for the right satellite. The best solution compared to professional tools.
I am in northern Europe btw.
All Badr transponders (26°E) with BEAM BSS should cover your area.
