    "content": "As I currently live in an antenna-restricted subdivision, I have been \nexperimenting with low-profile antennas for a couple of years now.  My \nexperience has been that verticals are \"iffy\" for a couple of reasons:  not \nenough gain at low elevations when the path is longest, a deep null above 40 \ndegrees or so, and fades due to polarization mis-matches.  That being said, I \nseem to do alright on VO-52 right now with a 1/4 wave UHF groundplane on the \nuplink and a well-hidden 2-meter Eggbeater on the downlink, at elevations \nbetween about 20 and 40 degrees.  \n\n\nI am in the process of building a turnstile for 437, which I hope will improve \nboth my uplink on VO-52 as well as my downlink on all the other birds.\n\n\nGeorge, KA3HSW\n\n\n\n----- Original Message ----\n> From: John Geiger <[email protected]>\n> To: AMSAT-BB <[email protected]>\n> Sent: Thu, June 9, 2011 11:35:50 AM\n> Subject: [amsat-bb]  VO52 and verticals\n> \n> Has anyone had success getting into VO52 using a vertical,  omnidirectional\n> antenna on the uplink.
