[K3PZN-List] Field Day satellite station?

[Curt Milton]

Good thoughts - I am suspicious Mike N3VOP will have the gear and know-how to put a satellite QSO into the log.  


Matt - definitely you will have to give a presentation someday on using NEC in antenna design.  I was exposed to this method of antenna simulation in grad school - but haven't be motivated yet to analyze antennas with that precision.

Matt, I wish I could jump on your offer.  As it turns 
out for me at least, while you are heading back here 
from the west, I will be doing the same from the north 
(NYC), although I hope I will make it in time for the 
yummy 6:00 PM FD dinner on Saturday.  (But that may be 
wishful and good intentions?)  Cheers, Pat N8PK.

I likely won't be able to make it to FD at all -- I'll be driving back from
Kansas City starting Saturday morning -- but I'll gladly leave my portable
satellite yagi behind if someone would like to set up a satellite station
(or just attach it to the VHF+ station, though a seperate satellite station
still wouldn't affect our entry class) for a relatively easy 100 point
bonus. The antenna is a single-feedpoint design and has a 6' tail off of the
back of the boom terminated in a SMA plug.
