If AO27 was on you would hear the carrier. I honestly am not sure about
AO27 only working in the sun since whenever I work it it is in the sun, but
I don?t think it is ever scheduled to be on during overnight passes anyhow.
Someone please correct me if I am wrong. Here is the schedule:

Well I thought it only worked in the sunlight? I have tried to talk to
myself on it at night time to no avail, so I have been watching it go into
shadow wondering if it is working just before that, maybe I was doing
something wrong, but I swear I have tried it several times.

The song is "Surfin' Bird". It was released in 1963 by The Trashmen.
The song was included in Dr. Demento's 20th Anniversary Collection

Actually, it was a rat Mark. Hee Hee It was on here in Toledo too. I imagine
possibly a state run show maybe. Back in those days, every broadcast was
picked up by antenna and rotator. My brother was 9 years older than me
that?s how I got to watch it. If I got caught man would I be in trouble.
Back then the old belt or switch took care of business.

Bob (N3LL) and I (LU6QI) made a QSO on AO7 in SSB Mode B at 22.22 UTC
on April 5, 2011, during orbit 66529. The distance between our
respective QTHs is 6914.6 km.
I also contacted Adrian ZF8/ZF2AE a few days before, covering agn more
than 6000 km.
I use some antennas from Cushcratf (Oscar Boomers) 22XB (14db) in 2mts
and 738XB (15.5 db) in 70cm with an elevation-azimuth rotor. There is
some kind of smooth valley to the north and west of my location and it
looks vy clear in those directions, so I can listen quite often this
satellite almost at the horizon level.
I have worked on AO7 Mode B other stations from North America and in
some cases they used portable antennas or yagis fixed at some angle
(named 20 degrees up) and we could still make a QSO.
I am QRV for other stations who would like to attempt a QSO either in SSB or
CW.
My grid locator is FF66TQ. My mail is lu6quintas@xxxxx.xxx

All,
This past weekend (Friday & Saturday to be exact) I was at a telescoping
event about 100 miles west of my usual QTH in DM33vq. I incorrectly gave my
grid as DM33eo as that is the usual location we observe from, but we had
moved to a larger site about 1 1/2 miles east to accommodate a larger crowd.
I didn?t; realize it till now that I was in DM33ln. I know DM33 isn't;
exactly a rare grid, but some of you that I worked might actually care about
these things, I know I'm pretty anal about stuff like that. Also the
location is in La Paz County, not Maricopa for county chasers.
QSL's will go out later this week or early next.
Now for something totally different and I hope someone here can shed some
light on a problem that developed with my Kenwood TH7-DA.
My battery dies on the drive out and when I tried to turn the radio off, it
started making a high pitched beeping that would not stop until I removed
the battery. I put in my extra battery and the radio seemed fine , but I
noticed that many sub functions we not working, for example, I have SO-67's
uplink in memory that I saved with the tone, I tried to turn the tone off
but couldn?t; access the menu item. I just got the same high pitched beep as
before. Also not working are Switching from VFO to memory, Switching from
memory name tag to frequency display, memory insert, among others. I can
switch bands and sub bands, change power levels and open squelch and switch
on & off Duplex. I'm thinking a reset to default settings may fix things,
but I'd rather not if possible as it would mean programming the radio again
and My cable does not work, so that'd be a manual thing I'd rather avoid.
Any ideas?

Dan,
The horrible noise is the packet burst at the end of it's activation. It
sends a packet burst of telemetry at the beginning and end of it's
activation window which is typically 7 minutes. For most passes this means
it will come on after it rises and shut down before it sets. I call it the 7
minute dash.

I just downloaded and ran the AO-27 scheduler program and updated the
epoch.txt and topr.txt files as instructed. I compared the text files with
the ones currently on the AO-27 website and verified that they are correct.
For some reason, the times generated by the program differ from the times on
the AO-27 web site by 11 min 36 sec.
What am I doing wrong?

What you see in the program is OK. The AO-27 web site is off. It seems
to happen like that 2 to 4 weeks after the AO-27 schedule is updated. Go
with what you see in the program.
You can also look at your tracking program and compare it to the output
from the AO-27 program and web site. You'll probably see that the web
site shows the satellite turning on near the end of the pass, or after LOS
for you.

If you are going to be listening for ARISSat-1 on the 12th, and use SATPC32,
you will be using the ISS for antenna tracking, but you will need to add a
few modes in the DOPPLER.SQF file for the ISS:
ISS,145918.5,0,USB,,,0,0,BPSK/CW-2
ISS,145950.0,0,FM,,,0,0,VOICE/SSTV
ISS,145938.5,0,USB,,,0,0,CW-1
If you use something other than ISS, such as Zarya, then substitute that so
SATPC32 will know what you mean.
These will appear along with all the "real" ISS modes. The FM frequencies
should be good, and the SSB modes as usual will need a little tweaking.
Assuming your rig is calibrated, you should be at least close enough to hear
the short transmit periods.
73s and good luck,
Alan
