More X-band wonders coming out of the lab today. A VE4MA choke ring made out Aluminum to reduce system weight. Next is the depolarizer and transition. Goal ultra light dish and feed for telescope mounting. https://t.co/1POcDAXFHe

This is the high speed data downlink, 2.5MSym/s BPSK, CCSDS framed, but not using APIDs. Uses some custom protocol on VChan 38. It was very busy earlier, now it's mostly idling with some basic telemetry.
This looks like 8 channels of accelerometer data, some changes are visible: https://t.co/3LigSvKfqs https://t.co/0frT5rixkk

Feed center check with laser bore sight in custom self-centering printed adapter plate!
Seems there is room for improvement.
WIll install some turnbuckle threaded rods to allow adjustment per feed leg. https://t.co/2N0hnpRgrh
