You'd think I would have this figured out by now. I never paid very close
attention to exact antenna direction until now. I mean the satellite was always
within the beam pattern. I tried the SuM part of Satpc32. I am thinking of
trying some EME, and I looked up the boom of the yagi' and I was about 8* high
and maybe 10* to the right of the moon, still probably within the half power
point of the beams. This is where the obsessive part comes along, should I use
the moon as the "grand phooba" of calibration? Or compass true/mag. I mean the
moon is "pretty" consistent. As always the collective thoughts of this bb are
never wrong.
