From Spark to Space - Satellite and Space Communication

We are exploring the art and science of satellite and space communications in amateur radio.

Experimenting with proven techniques …

Portable Operation

This portable set-up shows how using a handheld, tripod and an Arrow Antenna beam is used to access satellites.


Some use the Arrow antennas, Elk antennas and home brew designs.  With the right app or website on a smartphone one can use it to help you track the satellite.


A full duplex dualband handheld is useful.
