Today the directory was empty!!
HO-68 Store-forward Transponder user's manual stats the message storage time

Yes,
The easiest way -unless the cap in the housing is shorted- usually not, just
not enough capacitance left to do what it was supposed to do...Put the cap
in the Control box. That is how most of the rotors function anyway.
Good Luck...

You can put the cap at the control box but if you want to take the rotator
apart.
1. Turn it upside down and unscrew the 4 screws that hold the ball bearing
racier.
2. Turn it right side up set it on the desk holding the bearing ring in
place
3. With the unit on the desk slide the bearing ring down and lift the
rotator out of the bearing racier. Be careful not to lift the top of the
rotator off the body of the rotator
4. Turn the rotator upside down and set it on the desk.
5. Lift the body of the rotator off the top of the rotator.
If you get the sequence wrong the ball bearings' will fall out no big deal
just capture the all the bearings and put them back in the racier.
Call if I have confused you

Hi all,
Just a quick query regarding UO-11's Mode-S beacon at 2401.5.
In a couple of places I have read that the Mode-S beacon is said to
"transmit continuously", while others list that beacon as "non-operational".
I have also noticed that it is listed a few times as having been
heard(telemetry only) on the "oscar.dcarr.org" site inside their database,
using Mode-S.
I am wondering if it is worthwhile to listen for this beacon (using my newly
installed BBQ-grid antenna), or is it definitely not making any noise?

Hi Mark,
Yes it is a happy ending!
Regards the 1296 board, it is one made by my ham colleague from a
design by Bertrand Zauhar, VE2ZAZ. It places 8V on pin 3 of the PA which
makes it more linear than the 6 or so volts that pin 3 of the PA was
getting from its pad. I will send you more info directly.

I've just looked through the awards section of the QRP ARCI Web site.
Although FM is not specifically mentioned in the organization's definition
of QRP, it is included on the awards application. The same is true for
digital modes.
The awards application is available on the site in PDF form here:

Good morning,
Thanks to all that have responded to the email below.
I have been in contact with Josep EA6SA. The information on QRZ.com is
incorrect.
His correct grid locator is JM19lo, this results in a 22 km reduction to the
distance claimed previously. The correct distance is 7,766 km.
Good luck with pushing the envelope.
73, Pierre ZS6BB

Hello Luc,
Your description?is the one by which I have always operated QRP - that is, a
maximum of 5 watts output CW and/or 10 watts PEP SSB regardless of the
antenna.

There are acouple of stateside CW ops whom I wish would adhere to that power
level on the old Girl (AO-7), as when they are on, they are "pumping" the
bird so bad, no one else can operate.
