Many thanks to everyone who helped me with the doppler question and also the
IC9100 PC control.
I have successfully connected IC9100 and Satpc32, so hopefully on the next
satellite pass - doppler shouldn't be an issue.
Happy New Year to all

Damon,
Can you clarify something for me? It says "in the U.S.A." which to
mean means the contact with a person in DL-land must be someone in one
of the grids DL79,DL89,DL88,DL98,DL99 that are in Texas, USA.
A contact with someone in DL80 (Mexico) shouldn't count, right?
I think keeping it so that the grids have to be in the USA makes it a
little more challenging. I like the idea of using SSB as a
requirement, too.
