QO100 / Es’hail2 Dual-PatchFeed

Since a few weeks the new Geostationary HamRadio Transponder QO100 is switched on for Operation.

By far the best way that i encountered to TX and RX is the Dual Patchfeed from Mike Willis and UHF-Satcom.

I have written 2 Guides with Step-by-Step Instructions on howto build the Plates for the Patchfeed and on howto assemble it.

There is also a good Article on how the Feed works on the Blog of UHF-Satcom:

The new Transponder works really good and can be received with minimal Effort and Equipment.

Also the transmission Side is easy to acomplish with minimal Effort.

Nice Job AmsatDl

 

Best wishes
