I have been playing with a new Triquint ULNA device (TQP3M9036). It Shows a lot of promise. It is like a MAR or MSA device in that it is 50ohm in and out. and has a claimed NF about .4db nf ( their numbers). I have built several pramps to test them and have gotten even better than they claim and they cover 50-1296 with ease and NF is .4ish or below. The S11 and S22 are both great and the OIP3 is +35db also ...very nice device. It has great promise as a good terrestrial LNA. Preamps are foolproof to build and would cost under $50 if all the best quality parts are used. Just for information only ...

Setup is a 3.7m dish and 60W at CP feeder. I can be QRV on 6cm or 3cm most of the days, skeds and tests are very welcome, as usual. Vy 73 Bruce PY2BS qrv 70cm, 33cm, 23cm, 13cm, 9cm, 6cm and 3cm.

DUAL RX TRANSVERTER & REVEIVER (HA1YA)

by Damien FORESTIER

I stumbled on this site and discovered interresting things. 2m Dual-RX (Special RX converter for 2m adaptive (EME) receiving) http://www.ha1ya.hu/htmkepek/dual_rx.htm ME2-XP 2m dual RX (EME) transverter (The first dual RX color display transverter on the World!) http://www.ha1ya.hu/htmkepek/me2xp_spec.htm Does anyone have feedback from one of these 2 devices? It sounds interesting but I'm looking for someone who has this kind of device to exchange feedback, especially with the use of MAP65 (setup - configuration). 73 - Damien F5RRS

Helping K5QE with 222 WAS...

by Marshall-K5QE

Hello to all interested in the 222 band.....I still need several states for 222 WAS. I have grouped them into two "groups"....east and west from me. The east group consists of KY, WI, MD, DE, ME, RI, VT, and CT. Of this group, KY and WI could easily be worked via meteor scatter, IF I can find someone to run with in those states. So if you know someone that might help, please try to get us together. MD and DE are also workable from here on meteors, but those states are in the "long haul" category. In other words, they are both at almost maximum distances. The rest are probably reachable via EME. The western group consists of NV, MT, OR, WA, and WY. Of course, there is always HI, but everyone is just waiting for Bill-ND0B to move there with his Lunar-Links and FB antennas. None of he above states are reachable via meteor scatter, so EME will have to be used. On meteor scatter, I am running 2 x 23el at 135ft and about 1300W. On 222 EME, I am running 8 x 222XP40s with full steering and a tower mounted cavity preamp. In the last week, I have worked two new states....UT thanks Mike-K7ULS and MN thanks Mike-W0VTT and AC0RA-Wyatt. If anyone can help me with my 222 WAS, please contact me. You don't have to have elevation to work me, just a good tropo station with some power. We can run on your rising moon(stations to the west of me) or your setting moon(stations to the east of me). David-N9HF is also trying hard to finish out his 222 WAS, so if you are active on 222 you might contact him to see if he needs your state. Thanks.... 73 Marshall K5QE Phone is 409-787-3830 if you want to talk about all this....
