That \nwill get the most bang for the buck!!\n\nThen get the radio.\n\nOur ham club NORTH SHORES AMATEUR RADIO CLUB in San Diego did side by \nside comparisons, coax switching various antennas on a ham \nsatellite, to get instantaneous comparisons...One can't unscrew coax \nand switch to another radio...Sometimes the signal change is dramatic...\n\nThe ICOM 910 came out on top in comparison to the best that Yaesu or \nKenwood had....Kenwood was second....\n\nThe power output on the ICOM 910 is continuously variable from about \n3 watts to the maximum...Don't have to use the power available unless \nyou need it....Proper operating procedure to use the minimum power \nnecessary is very important on those modes that have band width, and \nthat means minimum power to get a usable return...\n\n>This is a great question, I'm interested in the answer as well. If I\n>can slightly hijack the question and expand it to radio choice as well.\n>What are the best radios for general amateur satellite work?\n>\n>The IC-910H looks great, but is it overkill for amateur satellites? It\n>seems like a lot of transmit power for most applications. Does you lose\n>anything by going with something like the IC-706MKIIG? I would really\n>appreciate some expertise on choosing the right radio.\n>\n\n\n\n 73, Dave, WB6LLO\n [email protected]\n\n Disagree: I learn....\n\n Pulling for P3E... \n\n", "attachments": [] }
