Hi Vince, I did this last year. But I found a little difficult to control properly the antenna over the tripod. I finally did a handle that I can hold in one hand. I also tought that sometime I could installed the Elk antenna in piggyback over my Meade LX-200 10' telescope. The antenna is very lightweight, the telescope can be easly control to track the satellite.... even remotely !!!
