Simple Ham Radio Antennas--Working the Birds Without Beam Antennas: AO-27. Post #737.
If you're having trouble viewing this video, please insert this title link into your browser search box: https://youtu.be/GF_4jXGXPT4. Here's another way to work low Earth orbit amateur radio satellites such as the AO-27 and the often elusive SO-50. Sterling Coffey (N0SCE) is using a simple 19 inch/48.26 cm whip with his hand-held VHF amateur radio transceiver. While the signal isn't strong, he does make contact with the AO-27. So can you! Good luck. For the latest Amateur Radio news and events, please check out the blog sidebars. These news feeds are updated daily.
