While quite cumbersome, it worked great and I have many QSO cards\nthat say so. I actually find it easier to use then the full duplex radio,\nand this is why. My TH-D7 requires that I \"switch vfo's\" before I can adjust\nfor doppler, so sometimes I forgot to switch back to the 2M vfo and ended up\ntransmitting on 440 instead of the 2M uplink. The scanner was easy - I just\npushed either the up or down button to adjust for doppler. See the link\nbelow for more details including pictures of my portable satellite setup.\n\nhttp://www.thelenharrs.com/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=43\n\nPaul\n\n\nOn Dec 18, 2007 6:02 PM, Zachary Schrempp <[email protected]> wrote:\n\n> David,\n>\n> You can use it, but you will not know if your signal is actually\n> getting through the bird or if you are transmitting over someone else.\n> I would say give it a try until you can get a cheap 2nd radio that can\n> serve as either the transmitter or the receiver.
