    This was encouraging to me. I can’t tell you how many thousands of dollars of equipment I’ve destroyed over the years in fits of rage. And with the pressure of a livestream…oh boy!

    Great trouble shooting skills Josh. This is one great video! Thanks.

    4 degree beamwidth of the 10ghz dish antenna... need to be spot on aiming... and being up high you may need down tilt to get him better. The MN 10ghz crew uses rifle scopes on their dishes to aim at distant landmarks, or they swap to GPS on the dish to have a compass for accurate headings... I know when they make contacts across Lake Superior they have predetermined places each side stops at so they know the compass heading and tilt for the dish.
    Wait for a t-storm to try rain scatter CW! Sounds like aurora!

    I use 5 turns on one end of the USB cable & 6 turns on the other end with FAIR-RITE 2643167851 oval cores on both ends. At 100 W I still have to have the radio well grounded to not get glitches.

    Yep, need ferrites on the USB cable.

    What antenna are you using on your Kenwood D75? It looks like it works well.

  • @bryan94591

    A 1:1 balun between the balanced feeder and the unbalanced atu input would help tuning and isolation.

    • @HamRadioCrashCourse
      @HamRadioCrashCourse  13 днів тому

      That is a balanced tuner.

    • @bryan94591

      @@HamRadioCrashCourse It's an unbalanced antenna tuner. SO-239 with a separate ground lug. The brochure says the SO-239 goes to a 50 Ohm antenna or longwire. The DX Engineering page says: internal balun type: none. Not that it wouldn't work when fed with balanced feeder. But there will still be a balanced to unbalanced interface not taken care of. A simple 1:1 balun would do that. Feeder impact to radiation pattern will minimize and fewer problems with antenna de-tuning when conductors are near the feeder.

    What is the antenna you're using on your HT and why that one?

    • @HamRadioCrashCourse
      @HamRadioCrashCourse  11 днів тому +1

      It’s one of the Comet short antennas. The reason is it packs nicely into the backpack strap pouch I keep the D75 in. I also carry better 2 meter antennas in a backpack like a 1/2 wave vertical or roll-up J-Pole.
