VA> Hi,

VA> Finally I have completed my new TWTA setup for 3cm EME. Instead of about
VA> 6.5W which I had with my previous setup
VA> I estimate about 15-20W into the feed.
VA> Also the Rx seems to be improved slightly: I get around 1.8-2dB moon noise.
VA> My echoes are well audible now.
VA> Still need to improve the tracking accuracy but it seems to work fine when
VA> not too much wind.

VA> I'm looking for skeds now...

VA> 4.5 m dish,
VA> about 15-20W into the feed, V-Pol
VA> Rx NF 0.6dB

VA> 73,
VA> Viljo ES5PC
