[Moon] Need modify plans for Spectrian 2.3 GHz Amp / prepare for2.3 EME Contest

[Koellner, Guenter (NSN - DE/Germany - MiniMD)]

Hello Jeff,
 
sorry, I cannot help you with these problems, but neihter, might I carefully remember you to receive on 2320MHz, too? Yes, there are some stations which must not transmit on 2304MHz.
 
I am receiving on 2304 by simply tuning the IF radio down to 128MHz, so you might do so by tuning your reveiver to 160MHz.
 
BTW, I am duing this conventiently with the FT847 when CQing
- Use split operation
- TX on secondary, 2320->144 on primary VFO, so I can hear my echos.
- 128MHz is stored to the quick channel (right bottom keyes). Simply store 128.1 there using STO key, and press RCL button anytime you want to receive there.
- press RCL button once more to return to main VFO (144MHz)
- press STO button when you want to remember the 2304MHz IF frequency.
 
So after a CQ, I just look on the waterfall on 144MHz, and if no signal appears, I press RCL button and look on the waterfall in order to see if somebody is calling on 2304MHz. Simple and fast.
But unfortunaly not very much QSOs....
 
73, Günter

Hello All,

I am preparing to get on 2.3 GHz EME for the first time for the EME Contest in afew weeks from now however I lost the plans 

on how to modify the 200 W Spectrian SSPA from pyrojoe. If anyone has a copy of these plans or any other suggestions, 

please email me.

 

Right now, new lightweight 3 meter dish with full 0 -90 degree elevation ( was restricted to minimum of 30 degrees with 

old dish), 2304 feed and preamp are mounted. Measured @ 10 dB of sun noise this weekend so RX side looks like 

ready to go !
