[amsat-bb] Re: h/t's for FM sats

I use a secondhand FT-51R through an Arrow with in-built duplexer and a high power battery bought separately, to give a nominal 5W. I tape-record all qso's onto cassette.

However I'm sure I have some loss through the in-built diplexer.

Works fine, I prefer elevations above 40 degrees to tx, although I can hear down to my horizon - you can see some of my operations from my website

and follow the link on the left.

Howver I do prefer the THD-7E (European edition) with a chunky battery.
