At JamesJB32: You can do it with your Technician Amateurradio Class.:) Those Antennas must go with an Electrical Motor. You can buy this Antennas from any Dealer who has Antennas from M2, Comet ect….The Transceiver in this Video is a Kenwood TS2000 or you buy an old Yaesu FT847.

That’s pretty cool! where did you get your dish antenna?
May 14th, 2010 at 4:05 pm
thats pritty cool! when i was in middle school i didnt know what a ham radio was. i used to see it in math questions on how much it would be to build a ham radio. i was thinkin that it was a regular radio (for music) made with ham. lol till my cousin invited me over to listen to one one time.

like your set up a bit like my one
May 14th, 2010 at 4:05 pm
Is this still node still connected to satellites? Just wondering, I’m a big fan of Echolink, I really love the idea of being able to connect to transmitters all over the world as if I were using them locally.
I just wondered if this node was connected to satellites or just used locally and occasionally connected to satellites. I see the AMSAT conference server as well but I can never find any information about how it’s used or what it’s connected to. I usually don’t see anyone on it either. ????

Well done !!! very nice and well presented thumbs up !!!
