AO-92 L/v Activation Schedule ( 23cm up)
I think I heard the Ao-92 YL voice beacon very well and one guy working AO-92L/v with the 23cm/1.2g uplink over the weekend , ( no one else to talk to ) .... what ERP is needed for this mode? Could my ts2000x with 10 watts into a helix work for this ? please delete original messages in your reply...Brad / ko6kL
That should be more than enough.
It's been worked with as little as 1 watt to a whip. Try it out!

Good Evening;
I confirm that the TS2000X at 10W Tx, with 25M of superflex Heliax (1/2 inch) and a 22T Helix works very well on AO-92 L/v. Actually working the ERP with this setup is not even required as firing too much power at that bird.
After doing some tests even 5W with same setup is perfect Rx my side, need to reduce further the power to find the minimum requirement and understand well the link budget to provide more infos. I need some more passes.
Hope this help.
