Is anyone coming to the AMSAT Symposium that can bring
the Alinco software and the special-magic cable for
firmware upgrades for the DJ-G7?

I am busy, on the road and just now reading your question.
We've had people pull out of projects between AMSAT-DL and AMSAT-NA on
P3E, for example, due to fear of the consequences of dealing with ITAR.
We have had a member of the "AMSAT family" `tarred and feathered' by
State for interactions between the member and a non-US friendly (to
AMSAT-NA) satellite building entity. We have had AMSAT-DL and AMSAT-UK
both refuse to enter into a technical assistance agreement with AMSAT-NA
until and unless it was modified in a way that would have been
unacceptable to the state department. The terms are completely and
utterly ridiculous for amateur radio and I support their stance ONE
HUNDRED per cent. They had no business signing a document that bound
them to U.S. laws as if they were U.S. citizens to build amateur radio
satellites.
Until and unless the current activities of AMSAT-NA management and the
attorney's they have hired succeed, there will not be a lot of friendly
amateur banter about the designing of things dealing with satellites.
You cannot do engineering of our satellites through paper publications.
You have to be able to interact, answer questions on the spot, huddle
over a computer and "be friends" with the people on the other side. It
has killed out ability to operate freely with our friends.

Martin
thank you for the clarification on the impact time.
Samudra, N3RDX
This announcement will go out soon:
Announcing AMSAT?s LCROSS ?Lunar Bash? Live Special Event *
2009 AMSAT Space Symposium
Celebrating 40 Years in Space
Date: Friday October 9, 2009
Location/Time: 0600-0900 Crane A/B, Four Points Sheraton Hotel at BWI Airport
Hosted by Samudra Haque, N3RDX, N3RDX@xxxxx.xxx
Open to All 2009 AMSAT Space Symposium Attendees
Let?s Kick Up Some Moon Dust !
Join us in the Crane A/B rooms between at 0630 with other early bird
AMSAT attendees for a Presentation and Live Simulcast of NASA?s Return
to the Moon ? and an once-in-a-lifetime event of the Lunar CRater
Observation and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS) impact into the Cabeus
crater on the Lunar Surface estimated at 0730 EDT. The event will
showcase NASA documentaries on the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO)
and LCROSS missions, the Music Video ?Water on the Moon? by NASA
Deputy Project Manager John Marmie and will shift to the live video
stream with commentary from NASA TV shortly before the actual impact
event.
As the best viewing of the impact site from Earth will be available to
ground based telescope located in the Mid-West and points towards the
West Coast we hope to see pre-recorded images/video clips well after
the impact event as it is relayed from observing communities. If such
images are available, we will post them during our open session.
Educators and Students can obtain digital copies of the presentation
materials from the host and can review ?On the Moon? Educators guide
which contains learning activities for Students.
*In collaboration with NASA

You might also try playing with one of the other settings. It's been a while
since I've used SatPC32, so don't quote me on the name of the setting, but
it may be the CAT delay. On my 817 I had to change the setting from the
default of 120ms to 250ms.
