How many of us have some little trinket, gizzmo, piece of equipment that
we're, "going to get around to it".? Where in the back of your?head that
little voice, doubts it.? On Ebay one can sell "almost" anything. Don't have
an Ebay account?? Bet you know someone who does.? Until Sept.1 D.A.R.A. will
match any contribution to AMSAT contribution up to $5000.? Now that little
gizzmo you're going to get "around to it" maybe worth $10 or maybe a lot
more.? Why not contribute a piece of the profits or all of it to AMSAT and
then it's times 2.? My recent efforts by the time it's all done will be
between $500-$800 to AMSAT.? With little or no skin off my nose.? I still
have more stuff in my "around to it" pile.? So check out your "around to it
" pile.? If you want information email me, I do not recommend the Mission
Fish process.??Remember, this is rocket science, and rocket science ain't
cheap.

I have been trying to work HO-68 on fairly good passes but can no hear a
thing. Sometimes I think I hear faint voices but that could be wishful
thinking. I am new to using the sat's but have been around the hobby for
years. I am using a Kenwood TH-G71 with the uplink and tone +downlink
programmed into one memory. Also using a arrow antenna . I am talking about
above 40 pass . I know it is around 1200 K up so do I need a preamp to hear
it and what are my real chances of doing this with around 5 watts?
According to the published schedules It should be on for NA. I know my track
time was good because I did check near the end of the pass and could hear
the packet burst from ARISS. Any help with this one?

I will still take all the help I can get but I think I just answered my own
question. I was taking another look at the schedule and noticed it said
turn on cw/ssb DUH I don't think that is going to work with a FM rig. Now
that I feel completely stupid I still wonder about the preamp.

Hi Don,
If you are standing outside with your arrow, a short
feedline and an HT, you will not need a preamp.

Hi Don,
Tony is correct,
For H-68, AO51 and ISS you do not need a pre-amp.
As an example how AO51 via a simple antenna + THD7 sounds:

On startup, I get OLE-fehler 80045030 in a popup box. This happens twice
before the program will start.
Anyone have this problem too?
Thanks,

A ham friend is having a problem with SATPC32. He didn't know what version
he is running. His computer is running Vista and when he tries to load
SATPC32, he gets a prompt that mentions a "64 bit" problem. Sorry to be so
vague, but I'm getting this second hand. Has anyone had a problem that
sounds similiar to this and if so, can you share any advice on how you
solved it?
Thanks,
Dave, AA4KN
