VHF/UHF Logs, including satellites and radiosondes / Re: UHF mil air
« on: May 18, 2017, 1735 UTC »Thanks for the freqs, do you use the 2006 for mil air? The 2006 was my first mil air rx back in the day, good enough to catch satcoms sitting on the kitchen counter with just the factory whip antenna screwed into the case.
Thanks for the resources!
No, right now the 2006 is next to my bed with a whip scanning the local HAM repeaters. I've been using the 780XLT attached to the outside antenna to search for milair because the software will record the frequencies it finds. Back in the day, I had a pro-2035 (I think that's the model) with an optoelectronics board in it. I bought it used for that purpose because I couldn't deal with the thought of carving up my 2006 to put the opto board in.
I will probably use the 2006 for milair once I get a cache of frequencies. I also plan to make and use an antenna tuned for that band (right now I'm using a discone).
