DX Patrol Ground Station 2 For QO-100 (detailed look)

An overview of my attempt to get on QO-100. My system does need some tweaks as (due to an excessively long coax run on the uplink) my signal into the satellite is very weak.

Having said that, it works & it is a starting point.

My next step is to shorten the coax run, or maybe add an amplifier in the coax run to put a stronger signal into the uplink antenna.

All funds raised will be put back into the channel (upgrading camera/audio equipment, travel costs to film content etc)
