    "content": "Hello\nCurrently the way I have been doing L band is as follows.  IC1271A (1.2ghz xcvr)  10 watts, KJ6KO 60 watt amp to a M squared 23cm22E2 yagi at 50 feet, through 50 feet of LMR400.  The yagi is at 50 feet for terrestial L band.  When we get our next HEO (praying) I will most probably put the 22 el on the satellite array at 15 feet with the az/el rotor.  I have been able to work through AO-51 with the current set up.  The power is enough so some RF gets squirted up.  I am considering a helix for 1.2 for satellites, or even my four foot dish.  So many choices <grin>.  Does anyone know  what the expected ERP on L band should be??\n73 Bob W7LRD\nSeattle\n\n--\n\"if this were easy, everyone would be doing it\"\n\n-------------- Original message -------------- \nFrom: Ronald Nutter <[email protected]> \n\n> Greg: \n> \n> Thanks for your option.
