AO51 FM voice!! Waste of money...\n\nWhat a good job we don't all have the same opinions! The world would be\nsuch a dull place...\n\nI think the AO-51 QRP FM modes are great. As a relative newcomer to the\nhobby (I've been working with commercial radio equipment and electronics\nfor years, and my Dad was an amateur, so I'm more than familiar with the\nconcepts - it's just I've only had my licence a few months) I'm\ncurrently restricted by my licence to commercially-produced radios. So,\nfor a lot of people \"go to the store and buy a push button radio\" is the\nonly way in.\n\nWith the QRP FM modes on AO-51 I can work contacts all over Europe and\n(at least in theory) Africa, Iceland and the Nordic countries. All I\nneed to do this is a little dual-band HT and a homebrew crossed yagi.\nThe aerial and diplexer cost about £5 and took an hour to make, and has\nrewarded me with about a dozen contacts on AO-51, SO-50 and even one on\nAO-27 which normally seems to be switched off when it passes over here.\n So there I have a setup that I can bungee to the back of my bike, or\nthrow on the back seat of the car, or even just carry about with me if\nthere aren't too many people about to get poked by the elements.\n\nUnfortunately the \"non-QRP\" modes seem to be dominated by the\n1kW-into-four-stacked-18-element brigade, who just drown everyone else\nout. I don't see the point in that, where's the fun in spending all\nthat money putting up a tower and buying a rotator and a set of huge\nantennas, just to make it easy?\n\nGordonjcp MM3YEQ\n\n", "attachments": [] }
