[NLRS] 10 GHz Test Lab???

[Donn - WA2VOI/0]

Hi Scott.
First off, are you going to make it to Aurora '09 ?  (This Saturday)  If so, 
bring your _system_, not just the transverter, and we'll measure the antenna on 
the range.  Second we'll measure the piece of cable you're using between the 
antenna feed and the transverter.  Those are as likely to be a problem as is the 
transverter itself.  Third, we'll try to compare your system with another one 
with a weak signal source... not an absolute measurement, but you don't need 
absolute measurements here.  You only need to know you receive as well as some 
who DOES receive well.

If you're NOT goin to be at Aurora... we'll have to figure out something else. 
June contest is only two weeks from Aurora so timing might be tough.
