Dubus article about DL6WU long yagi antennas for 23 cm band Article is both in german and english. Yagi antennas are valid alternative to dishes for troposcatter operations. This article explains design and mechanical data for 1296 MHz Yagi Antennas

A simple realization of a panadapter conntected to a custom build IF PanAdapter output added to the Yeasu FT-DX1200. The IF output has been provided by adding a G4HUP PAT board to the transceiver.

The Gemini Amplifier Remote Control software operates on Windows 7 and above, facilitating remote management of the Gemini HF-1K and DX-1200 amplifiers. Users connect via Ethernet, configuring the amplifier's IP address through the front panel. The software allows seamless band and antenna selection, saving settings for each band without requiring transmission. Integration with _OmniRig_ from Afreet Software, Inc. enables automatic band adjustments based on the radio's frequency changes. Users can configure serial or virtual serial connections, with tracking options accessible through the ribbon bar. The software supports speech functionality, enhancing accessibility for operators. Firmware updates, such as version 2.5Ee, introduce features like background datalogging and power output control, uploaded via FTP. Version 1.2.0 allows users to offload internal parameter data for support purposes. The firmware upload process requires the amplifier's IP address and port 21, taking approximately 90 seconds. Users are encouraged to upgrade to the latest firmware for improved performance and remote diagnostics.
