More D-ATV News from W6HHC
Here is the latest news from W6HHC about his experiments
with D-ATV:
Hi Stefan DG8FAC,
Just a quick note to say that I have transmitted my first
DATV pictures with your boards, from one side of the dining
room table to the other side ( 0.5 meter) on 1.290 GHz.
Thank you for all your support.
Attached PIX 09a is first test pictures showing me on my
notebook computer. (your transmitter boards can be see
on the left side of the photo).
Attached PIC 07a is Robbie KB6CJZ inspecting the signal
quality on a spectrum-analyzer.
So now we have some small adjustments to make...and
to increase the power with some RF amplifiers.
Thank you again...de Ken W6HHC
( I didn't include the pictures described in email )
D-ATV News from France
Here is some news passed along from David, F4BNF
by Darren, G7LWT:
Hi,
this message arrived from France tonight.
It sounds as if there has been another
homebrew DATV breakthrough.
73 de Darren
G7LWT
VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR DATV.
The first one was great tonight, September 9,
2009, I have received Rolf F9ZG on Digital ATV
on 437 MHz with images and sound from his
station, live.
F1FAU, Christian, hasbuilt an interface receiving
data on the USB port forflows into the parallel
transmission standard DATV at 1024 bit/s.
Data is taken from a computer with the one TV
tuner cardanalog video input.The software used
to generate the line runs under Linux.F1FAU has
created an application to generate the feed with
the addition of PIDs.
I can not describe how it works for now at least I
can you say that these are the first images
received with a 100 percent amateur method.
Rolf will write all this in the B5 soon probably.
All this was made possible thanks F1FAU
F9ZG F1GFF F4BNF.
All 73's and Rolf Amand Christian David

Cancled July 23, 2009 due to blockage.
Oat Mtn.:
1. Replace plastic wire ties with appropriate fasteners.

Santiago Peak:
1. Remove KC6UQH's call and Palomar from the W6ATN
repeatersID's (late spring early summer08when the new controller is installed)

3. Find intermittent receive problem for link from Oat Mtn..(1/24/09)
4. Resolve problems with WiFi getting into receiver for Snow Peak
& Point Loma (April 28, 2009)
5. Install new 5 GHz transmitter once it is repaired(3/10/09)
Snow Peak:
1. 2.4 Ghz input is almost operational but has audio problems. July 23, 2009
2. 434 MHz input still doesn't work. July 23. 2009
3. The 1200 MHz output does work and you can watch.
Point Loma, W6RDF: No Repairs Needed/Fully Operational
