Zack was on from DN60 as promised. He worked 21 stations
by my count, a very high number on a 7 minute pass. The
recording is on my website:

corrections that need to be made to correct the shift in frequency? Are
those corrections set once based on the rig being used or is it satellite

Zack was working them like a contest! Great pass.
KG4JR (KJ4TLB) will only be there from 12 Sept. thru 17 Sept
according to QRZ.com I didn't hear him on the later AO-51
passes, but there were stations looking for him.
Good luck all,

Glen,
Do note that starting this month, the AO51 team is keeping the main V/U
crossband repeater constant but is doing weekly hanges of modes and
operating patterns for the second, low power repeater. I personally will be
trying the second QRP repeater when it is turned on to V/U FM next week.
It is explained in the link. Lots of opportunities to experiment.

Hi
Sorry I only just saw this thread on the way into work today, these days I
only seem to have time to browse the BB on my commute I'm afraid.
I wonder if you have tried erasing the FTDI drivers with their utility and
re-installing them?
In addition, to check the FTDI COM port is working, I generally open up a
terminal emulator like Hyperterminal or Teraterm, set it to 9600, N, 8, 1 on
the appropriate COM port (use Device Manager - devmgmt.msc, Ports (COM &
LPT) to determine the COM port number). Once conneted, hit enter a couple of
times and you shout get the question mark prompt. That will prove
connectivity without the complexity of having to figure out your tracking
program too.
Version 0.9 of the tracker firmware is the most up to date version.
http://www.g6lvb.com/Articles/LVBTracker/LVBTrack.hex
When programming, you should use the PICPROG.EXE v0.2 program
http://www.g6lvb.com/Articles/LVBTracker/PicProg.exe with the PIC in situ on
the board using a hardware (not USB virtual) serial port.
If, for some reason, you choose not to use PICPROG.EXE, you can use MPLAB
instead with a compatible programmer. Configure->Select Device as 16F876 or
16F876A device as appropriate, File->Import the hex file, and set
Configure->Configuration bits like this:
// Default config bits...
// Osc=XT, WDT off, PUT on, BOD off, LVP off, FPW on, DBG off, data
EE prot off, CodeProt off

I am struggling trying to establish a proper USB - Serial port conversion on
my laptop. Can someone tell me which software is best for this conversion
and what are the pitfalls. I have tried the FTDI Drivers as described in the
LVB Tracker Box Manual without success. With so many LVB Trackers in use I
am sure there is a way, but I have not found it yet. I may be doing
something wrong during the installation of this software and I can not
figure it out. Any suggestion will really be appreciated and tried.

KG4JR, Jordan was just on HO-68, worked him on FM, great signal from a
handheld. He also worked a couple of other stations.
Once the bird had only the extreme south of the US in the footprint, I was
able to chat with him for a few minutes. He's a subcontractor for the
military, and will be there only through the weekend. He also tried AO-27
but wasn't able to hear his signal; but he was successful on AO-51.
He uses eQSL, and you can also send him a card direct to his home call.
Keep an eye out for my friend Mike, C6ANX who should be on very soon from
the Bahamas (FL15).
