After 2 month of inactivity from my side another trial with 3 bands. I had 23\/13\/9cm with my 1.5m dish.
\nMeanwhile i integrated the 5W PA for 9cm. This time Murphy tried to do its very best.
\nI had to tear down the antenna 3 times in between. First i had troubles to find the correct lengths of the ropes for the mast.
\nWhen testing the transverters i experienced 9cm was not switching to TX. During my mast trouble i accidently disconnected the 9cm power cable at the mast unit.
\nAfter that operation was going relatively smooth. This time i was heard very well by the others on 9cm. But i experienced that my RX seems to be really poor. I always gave much better reports than i got. I did not check the sensitivity so far. Everything you dont check will not work ;)
\nIn the end i had 17 QSO on 23cm, 9 QSO on 13cm, 5 QSO on 9cm.
\nODX on 23cm was HA5UA\/p. Thanks for the patience during that weak signal QSO.
\nNext steps with improving my setup will be a new rotator control. The original KR600 controler has some issues and i somethimes do not get correct heading. 23cm would need to be mounted to the mast. Unfortunately i dont think that i can get the mast up then. It would be too heavy.
