Either reply here or send me a direct email at sam at samresto.dev with which item you'd like. Remember to check with the spreadsheet just in case its already been sold (I already took some, sorry!) 73, -Sam, KF0ACN From mchllfrstr at gmail.com Thu Dec 21 10:08:17 2023 From: mchllfrstr at gmail.com (Mike Foerster) Date: Thu, 21 Dec 2023 10:08:17 -0600 Subject: [WARC] Rotator for the Witoka HF Station Message-ID: <5a0cfbb3-3ab0-4289-beea-9fb66a0faecc@gmail.com> The W0NE club's remote station up at Witoka now allows everyone to have control of the beam direction that we have on the IC-7300. Now it a great time to go hunting DX on the upper bands because the propagation has been great, even on 10 meters.?? If you have a *Technician class license*, you are allowed to operate from 28.300 to 28.500 MHz. Also, please keep in mind that the beam only works on*20m, 15m and 10m*.? The beam is automatically connected to the radio when you operate on one of these 3 bands.? All of the other bands use the Off Center Fed Dipole through an external Tuner. At the last executive meeting, the?board voted to purchase a USB Interface for the club's Yaesu G800SA rotator.? I ordered the "ERC" kit from Vibroplex.com, which arrived Saturday. I managed to get the kit assembled and the board installed inside the rotator control box.? Dan, WK0W went with me to install the system and get it calibrated.? It took a couple trips up there due to some unforeseen problems. I have updated (hopefully) all of the club members that were registered on the Witoka HF radio, the IC-7300 to allow access permissions to the?rotor when you log in.? If you find that you don't have access to the rotor controller shown below, please let me know. To find the rotor control on the RemoteHams (rcforb.exe) Client application on your PC, check on the right side of the application, possibly at the bottom right and find "YEASU" (reference the image below).? You can either click on the rotor position around the dial that you want, or enter the bearing at the top and press the "GO" button to change the rotor position. *There are a number of things that you should be aware of:* 1. You can change the rotor position, but there is a waiting period before it will move again.? Watch for the "Moving" indication.? Also, you will see the Green indicator on the dial move. 2. Also, the Yaesu rotor can turn more than 360 degrees.? If you attempt to turn from 270 degrees (west) to 90 degrees (east), depending on the previous direction, the rotor could turn either clockwise or counterclockwise. 3. The Mosley Classic 33 tri-band beam that we have has about 6 db of gain over a dipole.? This means that when transmitting with 100 watts out of the radio, you will have approximately 400 watts of effective radiated power in the one general direction. 4. The radiation pattern of a tri-band beam is somewhat broad, probably about 45 degrees or so.? You only need to turn the beam in the general direction of where you want to be pointing. *Beam Pattern * *QRZ.com Detail Page* 5. If you hear a station that you want to work, you can get the bearing from your station to theirs by looking at the QRZ.com and checking on the "Detail" tab to find the "Bearing" that you should use to point the beam.? It's interesting to note that the beam heading to a station, and his return heading does not equal 360 degrees.? This is because the earth is fatter at the equator due to the earths rotation. 6. Remember, the beam only works on *20, 15 and 10 meters*. 7. Remember to press the "TUNE" button after you change bands, or if you change frequency a fair amount. For all club members that don't currently have access to the HF station at Witoka, if you want access, please contact me (off the email reflector). Mike, W0IH w0ih at arrl.net *Technical: *(If you are interested) The interface for the rotator is an ERC-USB (Easy Rotor Controller) is designed around a microprocessor that is very similar to what is used in an Arduino.? There are several relays on the circuit board that allow this board to be used with nearly any rotor controller.? It's quite universal. The interface board came as a kit, which I put together in about 2 hours.? I spent a lot more time getting it mounted inside our Yaesu controller box, however.? The relays basically connect up to the two buttons that the user normally presses. The rheostat output voltage output from the rotor is monitored to read the position of the rotator. I also created a simple circuit that will power the rotor controller on ONLY when the radio is powered up.? There is a 12v output on the back of the ICOM IC-7300 that is used for a tuner (which we are using) and I tapped off of that output to drive a triac (solid state AC switch).? This way the controller is only turned on when the radio is power up. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If the radio is ON when you log in, please understand that there is someone using the rig. Don't start changing frequencies. If you look at the bottom for the user that is logged in. Understand that there are some that use the receiver at Witoka because the system is quiet, and they may use their own transmitter at home. [image: image.png] 2. There are two ways to communicate with other users on the system, first (as noted above) use the "Chat" window to check the status of the other user. Or, you can use the "TEST" button to talk to the other user. [image: image.png] Once the "TEST" button is highlighted, you or the other user can then press the "TXd" (Transmit button) and talk ONLY to the other user(s) logged into the system. The conversation is NOT transmitted over the air. 3. If you are done using the Remote, please turn off the Radio and Log Out to free the system up for other users. 4. Please be courteous and share the system. Thanks & 73, Mike, W0IH -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
