A very successful open day. Our #QO100 station worked Brazil, France and South Wales. An interesting experience where stations in such different locations are all the same signal strength.
Jake worked a few stations on the #23cm band, the furthest was in Gayton, Northamptonshire.
Ian worked Spain and Poland on #6m and some locals on #4m with a dual band Yagi.
North Wales Amateur Radio Group had fun on #2m and Wirral Peninsula amateur radio club were active on #HF.

We're on the air! For the next ~30 minutes, some of the ARDC team is in Munich operating on QO-100 using the DL0RUS club call sign with our friends at Rohde & Schwarz. If you're at your station, get on the air and make a QSO with us! #amateurradio #QO100

Whilst taking part in the 2m UKAC this week, Ian was busy assembling "the big ear" on our shack building.
This is a 1.2m dish for QO-100. It receives the satellite much better than the old dish, and is just about good enough to receive the DATV side too.
It should also make transmitting much easier, with more gain and less feeder loss!

Fitted the third mounting bar a few nights ago - that made the dish mount much more sturdy.
Went looking for #QO100 again and found Astra 3C... I think my angle guide could use some improvement. -

Hat jemand mal #Meshtastic über #QO100 gemacht?
Hab grad mit Freude festgestellt, dass ich mein Lilygo T3 S3 2,4GHz Modul doch nicht zerschossen habe und bin nun geneigt mal eine Richtantenne auf den Satelliten zu halten. -

I’ve been attempting to get the #freedv AppImage for #flexradio running on the RPi4 I use as my Allstar Node. I couldn’t get it to decode.
Managed to get it running on my #uconsole and received ON4LX operating on #qo100.
Spoiler: there is a firewall on the Allstar Node.

Yet another lovely #qso with Helmut dc6ny in Bavaria
He hit SNR 7 with his home brew trx and 80 cm dish!

Fellow UK Hams. I'm trying to plan the new radio station for when we arrive back in the UK early next year. I want a 12-15m lattice tilt over tower that will accommodate a SPID Az/El and a antenna-amplifiers Super LEO vhf/uhf package along with a vertical and 23cm 70ele yagi as a possibility. Ideally capable of 50kg+ load without me breaking into a sweat when it's breezy.
Apart from MM0CUG I'm struggling to find suppliers of masts. Any recommendations?

If I see a lot of calls towards a rare station bd8ccu, is there a simple / quick way to check if my station did hear that dx station?
A grep or ctrl-f filter to show all my decodes on that station.

In summer 2024 visited #Singapore as tourist, *warm* and fond memories.

Back on #hamradio #qo100 after 9 months of listen only. The in between cheap power amplifier was broken.
Doing some real low power ft8 now, my reports between -2 and -26. british sky dish 40 cm...
So no voice / ssb for now.
I see 9v1eo logging on pskreporter. Gpredict tells me he sees the satellite on 2 degrees elevation ... really on the edge of the footprint.

My #clockworkpi #uconsole arrived this week (just after my #hackergadgets SDR extension board).
I fitted a #raspberrypi CM5 in it and compiled PiHPSDR to connect to my Pluto+ which I use for #qo100.
