Dave,
Look above the AF/RF gain knob. To the left of the FM/AM button. The one
that says NAR. If you use a program such as SATPC32, use FMN rather than FM
for the mode.
Hope this helps.

Hi Dave,
I think you got the answers from the other respondents - but I would like to
add a few remarks:
1. The most important in my humble opinion - do not use the CTCSS tone.
In my experience it breaks through on the downlink.
That does not sound very good.
2. Use normal FM - not FM narrow - but adjust the mike gain so that
your downlink audio sounds good.
3. Do not use high power (EIRP). It can give "funny" effects now and then.
4. I use 435.340 MHz for the downlink - but nominal frequency may be OK for
you.
Enjoy the 2 weeks of SO-67 active over the Americas. It has a LARGE downlink
signal :-)

I cannot think of a worse idea.
The "best available information" should ALWAYS be on the Control Ops pages -
the only pages that are maintained by those who are in control of the
satellites.
Start eliminating operations by posting changes only here ... or some other
private or semi-private clique ... and you undermine what the FM satellites
are supposed to be all about.

While we're on the subject of FM satellite operating etiquette...
?
Field Day isn't far off, and perhaps it's?not too early?to start reminding
people that the "one contact per FM satellite" rule means just that:
?
ONE contact.
?
Not "only one LOGGED contact"...
?
ONE.? CONTACT.? PERIOD.
?
The rule was intended to provide more opportunities for stations to make a FD
contact by getting those who had already made one OFF the birds to make room
for
someone else.? The big guns who camp out on the FM sats "handing out" contacts
("but I only logged one...") fail to realize that every contact they give out
deprives another station of?THEIR opportunity to make a contact.? Two NEW
stations could have made contact for every ONE contact "handed out" by the big
gun.
?
To put it another way, there are only so many QSO "slots" available per pass,
and you're using someone else's slot.

We've got one more full day of sailing before we arrive in Jacksonville,
but there are a few good grids in the FL field still left. My op sked
for tonight and tomorrow is below. I fully expect to get on while we're
in FL07, but we'll be in that grid during the work day so I don't know
what pass(es) that'll be.
We'll be in FL04 for only an hour or so tonight as we turn north near
where the Florida Keys meet the mainland. Fortunately there are a couple
passes (VO52 and SO67) that occur as we enter and depart the grid, so I
should be able to put FL04 into a few logs at least.
AO51 - 28/2132Z - EL94
FO29 - 28/2203Z - EL94
AO7 - 28/2246Z - EL94
VO52 - 29/0033Z - EL94 or FL04
SO67 - 29/0133Z - FL04 or probably FL05
VO52 - 29/0207Z - FL04 or probably FL05
FO29 - 29/0950Z - FL06
AO51 - 29/1128Z - FL06
AO51 - 29/2053Z - FL08
FO29 - 29/2107Z - FL08
AO51 - 29/2234Z - FL08
FO29 - 29/2253Z - FL08
AO7 - 29/2341Z - FL08 or EL98
VO52 - 30/0050Z - EL98
SO67 - 30/0114Z - EL98
I'll update tomorrow as needed.

The Gulf Stream is pushing us a bit faster now. We'll be crossing into
FL04 sooner than expected, around 28/2250Z. The upcoming AO7 pass that
starts locally at 28/2248Z looks to be the only available window for
this grid before we exit into FL05 about an hour later.

Well ok, then what is the answer? AO-51 used to be fun to work, but with the
high power stations, jammers, and everyone talking over everyone else, it's
no longer fun.
With the frequency change this evenings pass was very enjoyable.

I live in the most populous region of the US' most populous state. I mention
that because if any region on the planet has the potential for on-the-air
abuse and mis-use, then this is it.
I can count on one hand the number of times I have NOT been able to make a
contact on a pass of AO-51 the past few few years. In front of audience
after audience - over fifty demos the past couple of years - plus personal
contacts.
Are there examples of "poor" ops? Absolutely. But I see those as
opportunities to educate. Many an email has been sent to a newbie I have
heard on the air. But NEVER to degrade or chide - but to educate.
I only casually listened to the pass that caused this thread and change of
uplink frequency. I guess I will re-listen, without office distractions, and
see if I am as "struck" as others were with gross mis-use of the service.

I was hoping to get some feedback from you guys. I have only been operating
for a short time and had some hicup's along the way. I found some recordings
of when I first started...There were some I could not hear the bird, and the
very first ones were pretty funny. I got some schooling on my form pretty
quick from you guy's. I wish I would have listened to passes before I
started, at the time I did not know they existed...
I saw a post about making one contact per pass, well I am guilty. However, I
have been listening to my passes and I dont think I am too intrusive, and I
get stepped on all the time. My brother say's that I am terribly addicted
when I was upset when I could not get in on the maddness when they changed
the uplink, pretty funny really. I was all checkin the equipment from top to
bottom.
Anyway, I try to call the new guys, because I remember how excited I was,
hearing someone calling me. I still enjoy it, wether it be on VHF/UHF or HF.
Is not that the reason we do this is to have fun? Sure there are times I get
frustrated, cant get in or what not. Maybe that is what this is all about.
Should I just not jump in there and free up the bird that much more, I
suppose so.
There are plenty of times when the 51 is not all jammed up, maybe the people
who are all upset about the Echo Madness should just get up early, I can
hear the east coast pass in the morning, not bad at all as far as traffic
goes. There are lot's of times I am talking to myself on all the FM Birds.
In the future, on the weekends when it is REALLY busy, are you guys saying I
should just step aside and not operate because it is too busy? Get Real,
there is always gonna be pile up's on the weekends. That is why these BIG
GUNS are big guns, because they want to be heard. You can not tell me they
are not running all kinds of power equipment and what have you.
That sucks for us little guys, but oh well I am not crying, thats just the
way it is and always will be.
Back to the point, please let me know if you think I need any correcting, I
would rather help not hinder. I really enjoy this HOBBY, but I dont know if
there is a solution...

Hi,,
I note that in another thread Wouter PE3WJ mentions the the next Delfi
satellite n3Xt currently being constructed.
Can we be assured that full details of the telemetry equations and
decoding format for defli-n3Xt will be published, preferably before launch.
With the considerable interest shown in the Funcube Dongle I'm sure that
many satellite enthusiasts will want to write their own decoding software.
In the case of delfi-C3 I received a large number of packets using my
G3RUH hardware decoder, but was unable to decode them, due to not having
the telemetry details. I had hoped to publish details of my experiments.
After repeated requests for the information I was eventually told that
it was commercially confidential and could not be published.
IIRC this information has to be made available to the IARU satellite
coordinator before launch, and updated when there any changes, following
launch.
AFAIK it is against amateur radio license regulations to transmit coded
information in the amateur bands, unless the decoding information is
freely available. The only exception being access codes to control the
satellite, for obvious reasons.
I trust that delfi-C3 won't set a precedent for future projects and this
problem will not arise again. We want to encourage radio amateurs and
students to experiment and avoid the 'black box' culture as much as
possible.
I will be interested in any comments.

My ship kicked into high gear overnight and is much farther along than
our voyage plan called for. We're crossing into FL08 in a few minutes
instead of later this afternoon. I'll try to be on SO67 at 29/1311Z and
whatever pass(es) occur while we're in the grid. We won't be in the grid
all that long, so hopefully I won't get called out for an assignment at
pass time.

the same philosophy/mantra that I communicate during my satellite

Desiring a "solution" is indicative of there being a "problem." It has not
been demonstrated to my satisfaction that there is a massive problem that
required re-thinking of what FM sats are al about.

Hello Kevin and group,

>I really enjoy this HOBBY, but I dont know if there is
>a solution...
At this stage in the game, there really is no solution per say. When there
is 30-40
guys on ONE frequency trying to make QSOs, what else can we expect? Yes,
there are some rude practices going on, but is that any different than what
happens when we get in our car and jump on the freeway
at rush hour? Or how about the grocery store? All you can do is to 1) make
sure you are not part of the issue, 2) adapt to the situation, even if it
means not making any QSOs and just listening, and 3) run full duplex if
you can. I understand that there are some that might not be able to afford
a second
radio, and I am by no means slamming you for that. I would, however, put a
second HT/full duplex rig on your list for future purchases. You will be
amazed at the difference it makes - trust me! I thought full duplex sounded
dumb until I tried it, now I don't know if I could do a pass without it.
Most of all, don't complain about that situation (not that you were, Kevin).
What happens on the road when you "complain" to the other driver about
cutting you off? It usually ends up in something pretty ugly. No different
here - it just fuels the fire. If you don't like it, do what you can to
work around the situation and keep your expectations low, and if you really
hate it, don't get on. Not all passes are bad - I was on a great afternoon
pass of AO27 yesterday that covered all of the US, and it was great! We are
talking of 1-2 crazy passes in the evening, and then the weekends
obviously - not all passes. And I am referring to the FM sats - the SSB/CW
birds are wide open.
Regarding discussion of switching the uplinks randomly, and
only notifying a select group... While this may be the easy way out of the
issue (until everyone catches on), it definitely does not correspond with
what Ham radio has at its roots - hams helping and mentoring other hams. I
can only imagine how I would feel if I found out that us new hams were being
shut out so the regulars could carry on a QSO without interference. The new
guys and new guys to come have as much right to transmit as anyone else that
uses them. Just keep in mind that pretty much everyone here that reads this
was a newbie at one time, made their first QSO, stepped on someone for the
first time and probably frustrated someone for the first time.
There has been much discussion about the issue of operator rudeness/busy
passes on the QRZ forums, here at the BB, and even during busy satellite
passes comments have been made, but I am not seeing a big difference in
operating practices - things are still crazy at certain times. As Clint
stated, this does seem to be blown out of proportion a bit. Look at it
mathematically: On a typical weekend AO51 pass there can be as many as 30
stations x 2 QSOs each (not many) = 60 QSOs during a 12 minute pass. That is
5 QSOs/minute - 1 QSO every *12* seconds. These are rough estimates, but
when you think about all these stations on ONE frequency, it should not
surprise anyone that is gets crazy.
Just try to enjoy it for what it is - it is a really neat and challenging
aspect of the hobby. If we have to put up with a bit of craziness on
certain passes, I hate to say it, but that is just part of this aspect of
the hobby. Again, we are talking about one satellite (mainly AO51) on a
select few passes. This is not an issue spread across the board. There are
still many quiet birds and passes, just take the time to find which ones
work best for you.

hear the east coast pass in the morning, not bad at all as far as traffic
goes. There are lot's of times I am talking to myself on all the FM Birds.
In the future, on the weekends when it is REALLY busy, are you guys saying I
should just step aside and not operate because it is too busy? Get Real,
there is always gonna be pile up's on the weekends. That is why these BIG
GUNS are big guns, because they want to be heard. You can not tell me they
are not running all kinds of power equipment and what have you.
That sucks for us little guys, but oh well I am not crying, thats just the
way it is and always will be.
Back to the point, please let me know if you think I need any correcting, I
would rather help not hinder. I really enjoy this HOBBY, but I dont know if
there is a solution...

Those of you working AO-7, what is a good minimalistic set-up?
Should I be able to work it with an Arrow antenna, a RX pre-amp,
and a Ten Tec Mode B box?

Hi All,
The original website is up again. The familiar download spot is now back at
http://www.delfic3.nl/rascal
The link that Wouter Jan PE4WJ sent is also a valid download, but the
original Delfi-C3 team cannot update that server.
