    "content": "Hi Bernhard!\n\n> I'm looking for a suitable antenna that I can use to operate over AO-7 in\n> mode A .  The main requirement that it be hand-held.\n\nOther than what KA3HSW suggested, the closest thing to a handheld\n10m antenna may be a whip of some sort.  Or possibly go with some\nsort of wire antenna.  Still not truly handheld, but a small antenna for\n10m will make hearing the downlink a tough exercise.\n\nDuring the past summer, I took out my Buddipole dipole and its 8-foot\nmast and tripod to work with AO-7 in mode A.  I settled on an L\nconfiguration, where the horizontal part of the antenna pointed toward\nthe satellite.  I would move the antenna every minute or so, and held\nmy Elk antenna toward the satellite for the 2m uplink.  That worked\nOK, but not great.  I could easily hear my 5W CW signals from an\nFT-817ND through the mode A transponder.  It was much harder\nwhen I went to SSB at the same power level.  I made one mode A\nSSB QSO with W7JPI, and that was hard work.  Now that I have a\nback yard to work from, coupled with the end of the summer heat\nhere in Arizona, I may revisit that over the next few months.\n\nGood luck, and 73!\n\n\n\n\n\nPatrick WD9EWK/VA7EWK\nhttp://www.wd9ewk.net/\n\n",
