2E0HTS Simon from Yorkshire North England, Working Italy, Norway and The Ukraine. 4 Watts Using an ARROW Antenna and Two Hand Held Radio’s
Video Rating: 4 / 5
This is a video of me working a nice, high pass of AO-27 from my backyard from the boundary of EM92 and EM91. My set up is a Yaesu VX-6R and handheld dual band Arrow antenna. Since becoming a ham, working satellites is by far my favorite facet of the hobby. I work every pass that I can so if you hear me on the FM sats, give me a shout! KJ4PSU
Very good. Randy
Sounds like a “pile up” on Satellite! I’m impressed. de N4EMP EM63
Very nice video, regardless of what the neighbors across the street were thinking! 😉
Thanks! There is an elementary school across the street from my qth. Its great in the afternoon when parents pick their kids up and they see me in the backyard with my antenna.

Tnx Joey, my location at 1000ft with a good view of the horizon certainly does me well! Its great to use the handhelds and hear them come alive, the Arrow ant is very impressive.

Hi Simon, nice videos. I’ve just built my own crossed 4ele/8ele 2m/70cm yagi with gamma matches and a separate 70cm preamp, through a 2m/70cm duplexer. Have worked AO-51 so far from the back yard here in Australia with my FT817 and 4W, and I have an IC-W32 dual band duplex handie on the way that I can hopefully mount on the boom to make it less cumbersome! Keep up the good satellite work. 73 – Rob VK2GOM (ex G0MOH).
Hi Rob, Glad to hear your working AO-51 and congrats on your new home brew beam. Sounds Good! SO-50 is pretty good and easy to access with a 67Hz CTSS Tone on. All the best and maybe work you one day on HF. Regards from Yorkshire, 73 Simon
Fantastic video Simon, well done, I’m very impressed, I also love using QRP.
