Hi Hector,
Congratulations on the award. It is always a pleasure to work you on the FM
sats. Thanks for getting out your grid to many of us.
Now to get the VUCC endorsements.

I just added a new computer to the shack and have SatPC32 all set and
running fine. My problem is that during setup, I chose 360 degrees for
azimuth instead of 450 and can't change it now. When I go into the rotor
setup menu, I can change everything else except for the max azimuth. I had
this problem before and can't remember how I fixed it.
Thanks,

Hector, congratulations. I'll be right behind you. I just have to find the
time to get my cards checked.
I've worked you a few times and enjoyed our QSO's, you're a good operator.

I agree 100% with Mark on all his points. I use LVB tracker with a
G-5400B and switched to the MAX232 chip. I was experiencing very
annoying RFI which I determined was coming from the LVB Tracker.
Changing from USB to MAX232 all but eliminated the RFI. I still
experience some RFI from the computer itself.
I was using HRD Sat Tracker but was experiencing problems with Doppler
correction. When I switched to SatPC, I am right on now. Once I
learned all the nuances of the program, I find it to be the best of all
I have tried and I have tried them all.
BTW, I just experienced my best ever pass of ARISSat-1. I was able to
copy 51 frames of telemetry and Kursk data. It was an 80 degree pass
from the SW. The battery voltage seemed to be up a bit from past
passes. Still no transponder QSOs however. Tried a few times without
success. I wish I had my mast mounted pre-amps up there. Soon
hopefully but probably not in time for ARISSat-1.
73,

Nevermind, I got it. I had it set for South centered instead of North in
the setup menu.

Good Afternoon,
I have been invited, WB2OQQ, to operate a portable satellite station on
September 11th, using the call NW2C, at Historic Fort Totten, located in
Bayside New York, only a few miles from ground zero. Fort Totten was one of
many placed used in recovery and healing during 911.
I will operate all FM satellite passes from 12 noon to 6pm EDT,
1600, -2200z. For those that make a confirmed satellite contact and wish to
receive a Certificate of Confirmation, visit http://www.nw2c.org/911.html,
for all the details, NW2C will also be operating on the general bands, check
clusters for frequency updates.
I look forward to demonstrating how our amateur satellites, can be utilized
as another communications possibility in a crisis, let's put on a good show
for the very special people that will be invited to this 911 event, thank
you.
73's Pete

I want to take a
minute to say thanks to the people who have helped me to discover the
fantastic Ham
satellite world and who have worked me on Sat. I have spent a fantastic time
on
Satellites. I really have enjoyed it.

Yesterday, I
received the grid confirmation number 100 in LotW from KD8CAO, Doug. Now, I
am able to
apply to the Satellite VUCC. It will be the first Satellite VUCC in my
country, Cuba.

?Thanks a million for your help and the great QSOs
on Sats.

See you soon on
