It would be wonderful if someone could convince Randy to write up his design for AMSAT as he solved several usability problems. Lacking that, a picture and description of the antenna to tripod joint.

Hi all, I ran across some very interesting You Tube videos by Randy K7AGE on the AMSAT-UK website. He demonstrates working AO-51 using an Arrow antenna and a handheld. I was especially interested in the bracket he made for holding the HT to the antenna. I'll have to make one of my own. His tripod set up for the antenna is quite nice as well. You can check it out at the following: www.uk.amsat.org/content/view/556/68 Well done Randy! 73 de Doug KA8QCU _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
