OK, I finally received the ARROW satellite antenna. I believe I have all necessary to make AO-51 contacts (any maybe SO-50) while I am camping in the Motorhome. I have a Yaesu FT-470 with Speaker Mic, the Arrow antenna and I approprated the camera tri-pod from my bride. Not going to worry about logging until I get comfortable enough receiving.
I seem to remember someone mentioning they used the tripod top plate to change polarity. How was that done? Do I need to poke a hole thru my New Arrow to attach it to the tripod? Anyone out there BTDT (been there, done that)?
Thanks
