Hello everyone,

I would greatly appreciate any advice in subject of choosing a vertical
antenna for satellite operations. I can hear VO-52 / FO-29 5-7 / 5-9
using my mobile antenna NR 770 H fix on a mast 9ft above the ground.

I am cosidering builing a Super J-Pole antenna.

Do you think that this vertical will be sufficient to bounce 50W of
signal back to Earth of the satellite ? If not , what other homebrew
antenna will be fine for this purpose ?

Thank you for your helpful response .

Phil
