Hello Bernard Pidoux , F6BVP
I remember very well the early pioniering years when you was the
AMSAT-France President and particularly I remember your activity
designing and launching ARSENE ,OSCAR-24.
It was a very great effort of AMSAT-France even if only the S band
transponder worked for at least tree monts but its performance was
very good.
The only problem was the S band downlink frequency of 2446.5 MHz because it
was necessary to modify the actual 2400-2402 MHz downconvertes currently
used for the U/S mode of OSCAR-13
In Italy only three stations were active on ARSENE i.e. i7UGO, i7LIT and
i2BMV and unfortunately when my downconverter was modified and ready to
work the S band transponder died because of problems of overheating.
I am sorry that you retired from the charge of AMSAT-France President
because durind your management many effort were made to build RS-17
Sputnik-40 and ARSENE OSCAR-24
By the way it seems that the actual BOD of AMSAT France voted to stop any
activity i.e. it seems that AMSAT-France do not exist anymore.
My friend Bernard please accept my congratulations for your past satellite
activity !
Best 73" de
i8CVS Domenico
Past AMSAT-Italy President

For this pass, I concentrated on the SSB transponder. For much of the pass,
I heard only 'noise', however listening down from the transponder, I could
clearly hear the CW beacon and BPSK; and listening up I could hear the FM
voice announcements.
As I listened to the SSB transponder, I thought I would give my call a few
times. I did, but there were very rapid fades. I started to 'time' the
fades, and when the noise level would build, I would give my call. Yes, I
was able to hear myself. I wasn't able to correct the doppler due to the
deep fades, but if I timed it correctly, I could hear myself between the
fades.
I also heard CW in the transponder which wasn't the beacon, but again,
because of the fades, only letters could be copied. I wonder who it was
that was calling, perhaps if that person is reading, I would like to know
who it was.
So...was ARISSat hearing me from the dummy load, or from the antenna
connector? Perhaps when/if the spin subsides, we might be able to use the
SSB transponder.

Yanko -
I have multiple sound cards as well --
It appears the program uses the "default" audio devices.
I had to designate (using the OS) my radio connected sound
as the default device.
This might be a nice enhancement for the next release of the software.

Al,
The Satellite is "ARRISat-1" It is NOT on NOVA as a standard. You
must download the new keps and add this satellite to your favorites.
As of this time, there are no keps for ARRISat-1 yet. It is closely
following the ISS presently.
You should switch to SATPC32 available at the AMSAT website for
purchase since this is the program AMSAT supports.. Join AMSAT too!
Satellites don't get in orbit by wishful thinking- Help us support
your operating pleasure and Join AMSAT. There is also a donation
widget on the website to give to the cause.

contribute to and support- Try putting up your own...Don't know what
beef you have against those that are trying to get better sats in
orbit, but if you continue to omit and not support the facts that they
cost money and NEED support, so goes that end of the hobby...I for

So what you're saying is that I should use Windows, even though I don't want
to? I did not know
that it was mandatory to use a certain OS in order to use the satellites. I
also did not know that
purchasing a piece of software was the only way to support AMSAT. Shame on
me :)
I was just making a suggestion not based on the fact that it's free of
charge (re-read my mail) but
based on the fact that Gpredict supports other platforms as Windows.
And no, I don't feel guilty about not using Windows for my shack PC while
I'm typing this on my Mac.
Have a lovely day.

And, if you took my whole snipet, you will see that I gave him the
exact information he needed to fix his NOVA problem. I merely
suggested he purchase something from AMSAT to support satellite
activity. Just using free programs will not add to the experimental
adventure of this end of the hobby.
Yes, I have been the recipient of many requests for assistance to get
SATPC32 functioning, however, it is never the programs fault-it is 99%
of the time - the users inability to get their computer operating-
Sounds like a Bill Gates problem to me.
Anyway, please enjoy the fruits of many hours of people that volunteer
behind the scenes to get satellites in orbit and functioning. Let us
see to it that our toys in space are funded. Don't think Congress is
going to give the HAMS a few million to fool around with.

If you're going to give advice and there is a reasonable choice then
give that person the choice, not dictate yours.
I personally don't like SATPC32 and prefer Instanttrack.
Judging by the number of queries we get here from people who can't get
SATPC32 to work, it's probably not the best choice for a beginner.

No guilt.
I paid for InstantTrack, Quicktrack 4 and The Station long before many
current operators were born, have been a life member of Amsat-NA since
1975 and a member of Amsat UK when I lived there.
I must admit, I haven't made a donation to Amsat-NA since this years
Hamvention. I guess that makes me tight fisted.

Ray,
Glad you are still listening...
I love the fact that the transponder is functioning. Now we have to
get this info to the thousands of classrooms that want to add this as
part of a science project. I can see that one child that is listening
to this voice from space in their own language becoming the next
inspired scientist.\

And that may be the reason some people simply choose not to use Windows but
other
platforms instead which you just ignored.

Seriously? Maybe you should go outside, breathe in the fresh air and enjoy
life. You're
getting way too riled up about something that's in the larger scheme of
things not worth it.
What is your problem? Why do you feel you need to tell people what to do?
And even more
why do you believe that just because they don't agree with your choice of a
certain tool they
don't support the efforts of AMSAT? Do you track the donations by name and
have a list?
Relax, life's too short.
