Had to connect the sub RX to a separate antenna....that was the rig I was in awe of then. \n\nMany used 2 rigs for more K. There was a great approach in the Amsat journal to use a rotary encoder to tune 2 rigs with one knob. I almost finished mine to use with all the mono band all mode rigs. As you turned the encoder it would clock the up / down tuning buttons on the mic connector. The 910h acquisition preempted that project. \n\nOn RS10 RS12 and RS15 mode A, I used a TR-751 for 2m TX and a TS -450 for 10M RX from my truck and those terrestrial antennas provided contacts nicely. (Pre-dates the Arrow or elk)\n\n I would stop in a parking lot and tilt the 2M antenna horizontal to radiate overhead. \n\nThat worked well !!!\n\nGoing forward: \n\nIf we had a preponderance of mode A or K the second / other rig could easily be a Radio Shack HTX10 / 100 Ir similar unless those running terrestrial microwave transverters got all of them :)\n\nThanks,\nMike\nW4UOO\n\nSent from my iPhone\n\n> On May 27, 2016, at 1:00 AM, John Geiger <[email protected]> wrote:\n> \n> A mode K satellite would be cool, but not many rigs can do full duplex on\n> Mode K.
