I'm having an issue with having Satpc32 storing the Mode/Rx/Tx addresses.
When I start the program, I store the correct settings for my Icom and it
all works fine , but when I reboot and/or restart the Satpc32 later I have
to go to the mode screen and reset the?Mode/Rx/Tx addresses.
Is this normal or is there a way to have them permanently stored?
Thanks
Carl

Operation?
Message-ID: <52488D53.1010702@xxxxxxx.xxx>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
I have been active on the satellites lately with my Flex-5000 using
external transverters. PowerSDR version 2.6.4.
I have noticed an error in the PA Info display, Ctrl-Shift-I, when I am
in mode B and transmit is enabled. The Temp: will read very unusual
temperatures, i.e. 572, intermittently for a moment. Values change, but
seem to be repetitive. I have seen large negative F values also. The
Voltage: also reads 0 briefly sometimes.The radio appears to function
normally when this occurs.
This occurs even if the TX Drive is set to 0.
I am running SatPC32 V.12.8b to control the uplink and downlink
frequencies using x10 Speed. The problem seems to only occur when CAT is
enabled on SatPC32.
This seems like a conflict between variables used by PowerSDR's CAT
control and the PA Info routines.
Is anyone else using a Flex-5000 seeing this?

Hi Bill,
I have a VU5K, and tried that. Everything looked rock steady using the
parameters you specified.

Carl,
I don't use Icoms now, but I tried configuring for one. Everything worked
fine, and the values I set
were retained when I restarted the program. There is an additional
Addresses OK button to the left
which I needed to click, in addition to the usual Store.

Hello Carl,
set the Icom addresses in the menu "Radio Setup". Click on the little
control right hand of the word "Model". In the list that opens choose
"Addresses". The first Icom address pair will be displayed in the address
window. With the up/down controls set the address values. If you use a
single Icom transceiver both addresse values must be equal. If you use
separate Icom radios for RX and TX set the first address value for the RX,
the second one for the TX. Then click "Addresses OK" and then the Store"
button. If you use a single Icom radio as TX (besides another brand as RX)
set the address value in the "Radio 2" section of the menu.
If you want to change the multiple address pairs that appear in menu "Mode"
choose "Addresses" in menu "Radio Setup" as described above. Click on the
little control right hand of the address window. Choose and modifiy the
other address pairs and save the changes of each pair.
73s, Erich, DK1TB

Took my Phase-3 antennas down last week; won't be replacing them. J-beam
doesn't seem to exist any more.
2m 9XY with RHCP/LHCP switching available to a good home and for a small
exchange of funds. Needs gentle treatment (couple of slightly bent
elements), buyer collects from Enfield (M-25 J-25).
70cm 12XY elements available for cost of postage only. Feedpoint innards
rusty so useless as a full antenna.
Az and el rotators too.
Anyone interested ? email to the usual amsat.org address

there was at least one issue that is going to snake them...the second stage
did not relight...if I was the QC person from SES I would want to understand
why, how they fixed that...and would probably want to see a demo
flight...wonder if the next Dragon flight goes before the SES and the folks
play with the second stage some after that? If that happens to bad there is
not a payload to put on it :) Robert WB5MZO

Good Morning all,
K4AMG Memorial Amateur Radio Club will be manning a table along with the
Chesapeake Amateur Radio Service (CARS) - W4CAR at the Great Bridge
Battlefield & Waterways History Foundation's (GBB&WHF) 4th Annual Waterways
Heritage Festival. This festival has also been designated as a City of
Chesapeake's 50th Anniversary Signature Events. Celebrated yearly the second
weekend of October, this distinguished festival brings together Chesapeake's
rich historic waterways along with the preservation and education of fiber
arts, heritage arts, traditional arts, fine arts, beautiful music,
storytelling, food, and much more. The table is designed to educate the
community on the role amateur radio has played in emergency and community
communications. The table has also been designated one of the festival's
Children Scavenger Hunt Quiz stations.
The K4AMG club's SATCOM station will be set up to demonstrate satellite
communications.
Volunteers are needed for setup, operation of the SATCOM station and manning
of the table, and for breakdown. The festival is a two day event on Saturday
and Sunday, October 12th and 13th, 2013 at the Great Bridge Lock Park off of
Battlefield Boulevard in Chesapeake, VA. Setup can begin at 1:00 P.M. on
Friday, October 11, 2013. Security will be provided by the event
coordinators for Friday and Saturday evenings. The table needs to be manned
on Saturday, October 12, 2013 from 10:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. and Sunday,
October 13, 2013, from 12:00 P.M. to 5:00 P.M. Breakdown of the site will
occur immediately following the event. Contact Richard Siff, W4BUE at
757-485-3762 or email at richard.siff@xxxxxxx.xxx to sign up for this event.
This event is a signature event for the City of Chesapeake 50th Anniversary
and will provide an excellent opportunity to show off our club. VOLUNTEER NOW.
Please look for us on favorable passes on AO7, FO 29, and VO52. SO 50 is
iffy with the image on the TS 2000.
The Chesapeake Amateur Radio Service W4CAR will be operating HF.
God Bless
Rich
