QRV QO-100


QRV on QO-100 with DXPATROL v2.0
Antenna is a 60cm dish.
Quite some meters with Westflex 103 give me 6W into the POTY feed.
TX/RX is a Icom IC-705 running 1 Watt.


DXPATROL Groundstation works really great, when I got better GPS reception.


This is my POTA dish 😊
This is a 40cm dish with DXpatrol LNB/Helix TX/RX.

VSPE, SoundModem, Greencube Terminal and PstRotator via Omni-Rig working on IC-9100

 

A struggle.. 
Seems to be working.
Checking on next pass.

IC-9100 needs to be taken out of Satellite Tracking mode and Split being controlled by PstRotator.
VSPE 32-bit did the thing CAT7200 virtual port with G8BPQ was not ablt to do.

Works SomeHow..
