Good job on putting DL grid on the air, But I wish you would have posted
it before you went not after. Maybe you can do it again sometime for all
those that needed DL for the award

Hi All,
I reported AO-73 as being deaf a few days ago and I had a few responses
which explained that it might be "alligators" or possibly a Military Radar
station in the North of the UK causing interference.
Tonight at 21:56 we had a high elevation pass in the UK - same again.
I have made over 70 contacts through Funcube, so I don't think it's me.
Tonight was a Westerly pass which is away from the Military site on the East
Coast.
Anyone else having the same issues from Europe ???

Peter,
Not any evidence from Europe, but WD9EWK reported good downlink
signals from AO-73 on a westerly pass from his QTH in Arizona while
running just 500 mW to an Elk antenna last night.
The AAR29 AO-73 log page also reports several QSOs from Europe today:
http://aar29.free.fr/sat/ao73/ao73log.php
Have you checked VO-52 and AO-7 Mode B passes to rule out a problem on your
end?

Paul,
I had replied directly to Peter earlier today, and we have had a nice
exchange discussing what he reported and what I saw on passes last
night. I can expand on what I saw last night on two AO-73 passes...
The pass you referenced was a 58-degree western pass around 0535 UTC.
Unfortunately, I was the only one on the transponder (as W1AW/7), so
I did more tests with my transmitter power. I was able to cut my power
down from 5W to 500mW and still hear myself loudly and clearly through
the transponder. And it was nice outside (around 68F/20C at 10.35pm
local time). The 145.935 MHz telemetry downlink sounded loud, but I
did not copy it with the software (my laptop was not out with me).
At 0401 UTC, an eastern pass with maximum elevation of 11 degrees
where I lose the first 3 or 4 degrees in that direction due to mountains,
I had a hard time getting through in the first couple of minutes. I
heard a QSO on the transponder, and one station was very loud. I was
able to finally hear myself at the center of the transponder, and make
one QSO (as W1AW/7) with CO6CBF. I didn't move around to find the other
station, so my only QSO on that pass was with Hector.
For both passes, I used a pair of FT-817NDs, transmitting at 5W to my
Elk handheld 2m/70cm log periodic (except for part of the western pass
where I cut my power to 500mW).
The suggestion of trying VO-52 in particular is a good one. If the
setup works for VO-52, it should do fine with AO-73. I'll be on at
least one AO-73 pass this evening as W1AW/7 (0423 UTC, maximum
elevation 19 degrees), and - if anyone will be up for the later pass -
I will stick around for the 0559 UTC pass (maximum elevation 33
degrees). Or maybe I will swap antennas on the later pass, going with
something other than the log periodic...
73!

Paul,
Thanks for the reply.
I am working fine through all the other sats. A couple of other UK stations
have reported the same problem whilst over Europe since last weekend. Looks
like we have an "alligator" on the loose!
The satellite is very quiet with only one or two stations getting in.
Whether or not it one of those stations has yet to be seen. It's a shame as
Funcube has been one of the better sats to work through.

Peter,
One other thing to keep in mind is that the satellite is out of
eclipse during the last 2-4 minutes of each evening pass at your
latitude now, so the transponder will switch off as it passes to the
north. This period will grow longer and longer as we move towards the
northern summer solstice.
This shows you how much transponder time you have on your evening
passes tomorrow night:

The most obvious cause of deafness is certainly alligators though. The
satellite appears to be functioning fine. The FUNcube Handbook says
that the AGC range of the transponder is 43 dB. Perhaps someone more
knowledgeable about how transponders operate can put into perspective
how that translates in real-life usage.

Hi!
After just over 2 days, John K8YSE/7 and I have been busy
putting W1AW/7 on lots of satellite passes. It's been fun! I
just worked a couple of passes this evening on FO-29 and
AO-73, bringing my QSO count to 23 over 7 different passes
on 3 satellites (AO-73, FO-29, VO-52). John has been on
during the daytime, working more passes and stations. I did
not get an update from him today, but hope to get something
from him tomorrow that I can pass along (if he doesn't post an
update himself).
On the AO-73 pass I just worked tonight, there was a Canadian
station who was trying to call me in CW near the end of the pass.
I'm sorry I could not copy enough of your call to make a cross-
mode contact, as your CW was a bit faster than what I can copy
outside of some HF contests. I have the keyer in my FT-817NDs
set at 17wpm, a speed fast enough to be comfortable sending
and copying without having to scribble anything down (my audio
recorder comes in handy on CW just as it does for SSB and FM
QSOs). I have been asked to make CW QSOs as W1AW/7, but
I'm not very comfortable doing a lot of CW via satellite. Throw in
Doppler on top of trying to concentrate on my sending and pointing
the antenna - a lot to do.
Despite my poor effort trying to decode that call, I was able to work
CO6CBF early in tonight's AO-73 pass. Hector has been doing great
things with his gear on the satellites lately, including operating portable -
something he had difficulties doing in the past. Maybe we can get him
to work SSB and FM satellites during Cuban grid expeditions, as he
has done previously on SO-50. :-)
I may not stay up too late tomorrow (Friday) night working the
satellites, so I can be up early and at the hamfest in Scottsdale
AZ early Saturday morning. I might be able to work a couple of
passes, ending with an FO-29 pass around 0335 UTC, so I can
pack my gear and get up to the hamfest early. I am shooting
for the VO-52 pass around 1251 UTC and the FO-29 pass after
that at 1305 UTC for good chances to work all across North
America from the hamfest as W1AW/7.
A reminder... I'm posting updates on my plans to work as W1AW/7
on my Twitter feed @xxxxxx (http://twitter.com/WD9EWK for
those not using Twitter), and will continue to do that Saturday
morning at the hamfest. I should be able to tweet some photos
during the hamfest, and - assuming the mobile phone data network
is 3G or 4G at the hamfest - I should be able to submit data from
AO-73 to the FUNcube data warehouse from the hamfest site.
Thanks for all the QSOs with John and me as W1AW/7 so far this
week. We'll keep working passes through Tuesday afternoon, when
this week of fun comes to an end for us using W1AW/7 in Arizona.
Please call us when you hear us on, even if you've already worked
us this week.
73!

I've been using ISS Detector. It gives me a warning before the ISS or
CAPE-2 is overhead along with a schedule of future passes and elevations.
