A Short Primer on Getting Started on 13 cm EME By Al Ward W5LUA This short primer will hopefully provide some insight into Earth-Moon-Earth (EME) operation on the 13 cm band. I have included numerous references and web links that should help provide additional information and guidance as you begin your journey up in frequency. I
VK3NX 2.3GHz EME
Equipment on 13cm - A homebrew transverter based on the DEMI board is used for 2300-2304 MHz. - The VK band is 2300-2302 MHz. We also have a band at 2400-2450 MHz. The agreed segment for EME is 2301.900 - 2302.000 MHz. - The LO is a homebrew design and is reflocked to a 10 MHz GPS derived signal using a "VE1ALQ" PLL. - IF frequency is 144 MHz.
13-centimeter band - Wikipedia
The 13 centimeter, 2.3 GHz or 2.4 GHz band is a portion of the UHF (microwave) radio spectrum internationally allocated to amateur radio and amateur satellite use on a secondary basis. The amateur radio band is between 2300 MHz and 2450 MHz, and thereby inside the S-band.

I am presently constructing a portable station for EME (Earth-Moon-Earth) communication. After 23cm band I am now also constructing the 13cm parts. On both bands I am using a Septum feed with an additional flare as my dish is rather shallow. On 13cm band I decided to build the frontend based on an LNA from Michael Kuhne which I had bought second
2.3GHz Transverter - Mini-Kits
The complete 13cm Band 2300 to 2390MHz Transverter is suitable for countries that have access to the lower 2.3GHz band, and is constructed on a professionally etched 80x65mm FR4 PC Board. The design is no tune so requires no alignment as it uses SAW filters and can be used with either a 147 or 435MHz I/F.

Inspiriert wurde ich durch meinen Freund Roland DK4RC, der mir über den Aufbau seines 13cm EME Transverters berichtete. Er erzählte, dass er in gut eine Woche später am
ARRL EME Contest Weekend - 13cm SP9VFD report - Groups.io
Aug 15, 2023 · My setup for 13cm EME: homemade 6.4m dish with f/d-0.4, RA3AQ feed, 0.3db NF LNA, 150W at the feed, Kuhne MKU 23 G4 transverter, IC-9700. I have to make or buy better BPF for 13cm. This one which I currently use was not perfectly tuned by me from 2158MHz and has to much attenuation in 2320MHz range.

Original Equipment 13cm NTMS • WD5AGO preamp 0.55dB NF • Spectrian Amplifier mounted at dish (160W max). 48V operation. • Homemade VE4MA Superfeed using copper tube mailed by PA3CSG. Tuned for “reasonable” return loss • DB6NT Xverter For 2304/2320. IF is FT847 • For 2424MHz RX use ADC7133 Satellite down converter to FT847 IF at 168MHz
