Bill,
There is a nice interface being sold by AMSAT - LVB tracker box...Only need
an RS232 or USB to operate it running SatPC32... You didn't mention what rig
you have - you can interface with that via SatPC32 also  - See the ad at the
AMSAT website...
Good luck,
Dee, NB2F

OK, a newbee question about interfacing rotors. I have a Yaesu 5500 and I
run PCSat32. What do I need between the rotor and the computer? I would like
a few options. Do I need the Yaesu 232 interface box or will a generic box
do the job. If a generic box will work, which are the best for satellite
work with PCSat32?

Jim,

There is no notification if a QSO record does not
match in LOTW. You can run queries on the LOTW web page
to see which QSOs matched and those that aren't matched
with the other station, and that is it.  If people
start posting that QSOs are in LOTW (or eQSL, for those
using that), then others could quickly see if there
are new QSLs.

LOTW will happily take QSO records that have the proper
information and signed by the TQSL program - even if
none of the QSO records are a match with anyone else.
Hopefully you will see more QSLs from me in LOTW soon.

73!

Hi Bill,

You're going to love automated tracking...

The current favorite in my shack is the LVB Tracker, available from just a
bare board to a completely assembled, plug/play box with backlit
LCD--assembled masterfully from one of AMSAT's own members--Mike, WB8CXO!

http://www.amsat-na.com/store/category.php?c=Hardware

AMSAT-UK sells a kit of all parts, too!  Just visit their store online as
well...

73,

Mark N8MH

Bill,

I will second Dee's recommendation of the LVB tracker for amateur satellite
tracking.  We always have it running with SATPC32 at the AMSAT booth at
Dayton.  The Yaesu interface box is a basic, solid, but expensive unit.
Both use a standard command syntax, and are supported by many other
programs.

The FT-847 is supported very well by SATPC32.  Erich has all of its quirks
figured out.  With SATPC32, an FT-847, and an LVB tracker, you can
concentrate on communicating.

Jeff,

Yes!

Here's the main design features:

o    Inexpensive! Basic device without any options is $12 for the components

o    Several physical interface options including RS-232, USB and TCP/IP
over 10/100 Ethernet

o    Uses standard software interface (currently Yaesu GS-232)

o    Cross-platform compatibility - Windows, Linux, BSD, Mac

o    Compatible with existing real-time prediction programs such as Wisp and
Nova

o    Open source

o    Integrated firmware programmer for easy installation and upgrade

o    No requirement to solder SMT devices

o    Bidirectional interface

Congrats to you Jim for #209. Sure not a lot of folks achieving VUCC. I got
#135 April 5.2004. With all the grid work on the FM birds you would think
there would be alot more being awarded. 74 certificates in 7 years sure
ain't a lot. Wonder if they are just not being sent in? Anyway good work.

OK that is good news - I now there are some slight differences between

I'm using the ERC-R, it's a little cheaper than the LVB Tracker, and I had
it at my door in a week.

run PCSat32. What do I need between the rotor and the computer? I would like
a few options. Do I need the Yaesu 232 interface box or will a generic box
do the job. If a generic box will work, which are the best for satellite
work with PCSat32?

Hello

Check out the log for AO-7 http://www.planetemily.com/ao7/ao7log.php ?you
will notice how much activity it gets from our European friends, as
compared?with the U.S.? From many parts of the U.S some good DX can be had.?
Even from way over here in Seattle I can work a "piece" of Europe.? Given
the age of AO-7 I consider every QSO a gift.

packet signal in there ? I've tried psk and afsk but never get a print ?

Thanks
