WE TAKE YOU PLACES YOU’VE NEVER BEEN

As of 28 November 2020, my adventure on the QO-100 / Es’hail-2 started with a first contact with OH4MS which followed by several contacts shortly after during that initial hour. An experience boosting my enthusiasm for SSB contacts through this satelite.

MY SETUP

During the first contacts, my reception was fabulous but the signal on transmission still needed to improve. During the second day 29 Nov 2020 i replaced the cable with Belden H500 cable and signal went above allowed limits. Bringing back the power gave me a perfect signal. Hope to meet you all on the satelite or any other hamband. 73 PA4R
