To: ham-space@ucsd.edu
I am about to put up Oscar antennas on my roof. I have tentatively ruled out
the KLM 22C antenna because the boom is so long. I would prefer to use either
the small KLM's, or the M2 antennas which are 16 elements on VHF, 30 elements
on UHF.
I would appreciate anybody's comments:
1. Comparison of small KLM (14 el. on VHF) vs. M2 antennas (16 el. on VHF) ?
(gain, mechanical construction, weather problems, polarity relays, etc.)
2. Is a closet rod an acceptable substitute for a fiberglass crossboom ?
If so, is polyurethane an acceptable sealant ?
3. Best weatherproof VHF preamp that can handle 50+ watts ?
Please respond to the newsgroup or direct to wayne@csg.mot.com

Just out of curiosity is there a right way and wrong way when it comes to
logging satellite qsos? Is the tx freq used for the record?
Thanks
