Does anyone know a) where the backup lithium cell battery is and b)what is
the replacement?

The operating manual doesn't give me a clue.

This old thing still works but needs a replacement.  Thanks for your help.

I have come across an extra paperback copy of this book relating the
trials and tribulations of life and support on the MIR Space Station. It
is great reading about the background behind what we all were told at
the time.

I figure I would offer it here first before it goes to the "bay."

$5 plus actual shipping (bookrate or first class, whichever is cheaper)
I will provide the packaging at no cost.

I can even incude a copy of my actual MIR QSL card if interested

Please contact me off list if interested.

Thanks!

Cori and I are leaving the Phoenix area this morning (Friday) and will head
up through northeastern Arizona and into New Mexico. We'll get to DM66
either tonight or tomorrow morning sometime and should be QRV there for a
few passes on both FM and SSB birds. Hopefully APRS coverage (ND9M-7) will
continue to give good results while enroute.

If anyone needs some Arizona and New Mexico counties on HF, I'll be running
them on both CW and SSB on 14056.5 and 14336 kc respectively. Our route
toward DM66 will take us through Maricopa, Gila, Graham, Greenlee, Navajo,
and Apache Counties in Arizona, and San Juan and Rio Arriba Counties in New
Mexico.

Our trip budget is pretty well tapped, so after we finish up in DM66, we're
going to hot foot it back to Florida.

Hey Mal,

It's on the control unit. Part of the front panel. It's a lithium CR2032.

Remove the top and bottom covers and loosen the two screws that hold the
front panel and fold it down.

Hello all,
I'm new to satellite and I'm going to try my first QSOs on AO-27 during it's
daylight passes. Last weekend I listened to AO-27 on my tower mounted 432
beam but for this I'll be setting up an arrow antenna on a tripod and an
ft-736r. I've had the arrow for years but never got around to actually using
it for satellite.

Hope to see you on AO-27 tomorrow and possibly Sunday as well if I'm
successful.

Oh, and if anyone wants to sell a g-550 or similar elevation rotator let me
know. I'm interested.


73,
Don

You'll need a seperate one for each satellite.
The map is no problem but the transparent overlays are definately not
still available.
I've got unused overlays for AO8, AO9 and RS.
