24 GHz transverter

Status: Finished 19990523

 

Here are the parts for my transverter. It's a DB6NT mark III with waveguide connection (not seen)

On 23. May 1999 the first signals was heard on an "DX-pedition" to the beacon PI7EHG at Schipol airport.

Performance hasn't been verified yet, as I have no access to measurement equipment at 24 GHz.

Later on 23.May 1999 I copied PI7EHG with 549 from my home over a distance of 23km.

On 29. May I managed to work PA3AWJ (JO21GW) for my first contact on 24GHz. The distance is about 20km. Signals were 55 / 539 .
