Tomorrow is the last day you can reserve a room in the AMSAT block for
Dayton.  I have to turn in the rooming list on Friday.  If you are
interested, call me at 301-589-6062.

I'm stumped..



I have CAT control turned on and ISS selected. In CAT control, I have 144.49
and 145.800 selected and that is what shows in the uplink/downlink widow
above the map. SATL function is on in the radio.



BUT, the top window on the radio shows 145.800, but the bottom window (vfo
a) shows 437.800.  I can't find a way to change that



Any help appreciated.  SatPC is v 12.8b registered

Ted,

Are you using SATPC32ISS?  The rig is not capable of operating full duplex
on the same band, so if you want to work the ISS on those frequencies, you
need to use the special version.  The SATPC32ISS does tune both the uplink
and downlink, but not as full duplex.  More like a standard repeater.

73s,

Anyone want to put their APRS or Satellite talents on the air in Mongolia?

A Scientist goes there each summer and has the opportunity to put some small
solar powered APRS weather trackers on the air (via the ISS).  Here is his
idea:

If anyone... would like to hack together 2? or 3 small solar powered APRS
transmitters and 2 meter antennas that are attached to a very small weather
station (ONLY humidity, pressure, temperature, sunlight) we can leave them
on mountain tops in the GOBI of Mongolia this summer.?

The transmitter and solar panel (with some lithium re-charge batts.)? can be
set to squirt data every 5 or 10 minutes.? Basically, the signal will go
straight up, and this will hit the ARISS space station APRS repeater about 4
times per day.? If there is a receiving gateway APRS-internet station in
Russia, China, or Japan under the footprint of the repeater, then we can get
data on weather in the Gobi for a year or maybe more depending on the
robustness of the transmitter, batt, solar panel.? What do you think? These
would be non-recoverable items.? Just a thought that may interest people.
This would be a normal HAM "no budget operation" and it has to be very
small.

Probably not enough time this year, so I can set up a test system this year
on our Landcruiser there with my Kenwood HT and we can see if we can repeat
data into the Internet with 5 watts and with APRS from the Gobi while I am
there.? Fun stuff - I think.

?I would love to set up remote weather stations like that deposited in areas
where we did our work to get env. data that way, that would be so cool,
until a wild Camelus bactrianus ate one... then maybe we could get
gastro-physiol. data on one of them.....?

 Most rigs will not let you used same band on two vfos.  Erich has developed
another version of SATPC32 called SATPC32ISS which accommodates
this issue.   Check your program/satpc32 folder for SATPC32ISS.

Our satellite operator friends in range of Asiatic Russia may find this news
from the DXNL 1776 - Apr 18, 2012 DX Newsletter interesting:

UA9, ASIATIC RUSSIA
     RA9LR, RV9LF, UA9LAC, UA9LAO, UA9LEW, UA9LL, UA9LP, UA9LT and UB9LBS
     will sign RK9LWA/9 from the Olenyi Ruchyi nature park in CW, SSB and
     digital modes on 80m-10m (maybe also SSB/FM via satellite on 2m/70cm)
     from Apr 19-22.
     QSL via UA9LP, bureau QSLs can be requested via e-mail to ua9lp@xxxx.xx

This news would be too late if we waited for the weekend ANS news cycle.

The students at Drexel University need some mentoring in setting up a ground
station . If you can help please contact me off list and I will put you in
touch with the professor leading the cube sat program.

Hi Roland,
very nice result. I cannot have such a good quality since I my FCD is
overloaded from close by FM Broadcasts,
planning to add a notch filter.

Just to report to the Amsat-BB that FCD is not the ultimate SDR,
I found and use a much cheaper dongle based on RTL2832U chip [RTL-SRD].

Just google around if curious.
