During the 1826Z pass of the CubeSat gaggle from the Dnepr 37 launch, I
copied NANOSAT-BR1 while looking for QB50p2. Both are BPSK AX.25
transmissions. (Haven't decoded QB50p1 / FUNCube 3 yet.)
I was using object 2013-033AA (40034) which appears close to QB50p2, but
still some Doppler errors. So will try another object next pass. There are
sure plenty to choose from!
Any suggestions on a good object for either QB50p1 or p2?

Current discussions between the ARISS team and NASA suggest the
possibility of voice contacts with the International Space Station
(ISS) during Saturday's ARRL Field Day activities this coming weekend.

> Unfortunately, a while back, Yahoo changed how multiple messages about the
same subject (even to different reflectors - those are "bundled" into a
single message) are handled and, when a reply to any of those messages is
sent, all of the attached messages cannot be deleted!? At least I have not
found a way!
Try switching to "plain text" for that reply, and then switch back to 'rich
text'. You can delete the unnecessary text. In the compose window in my
browser, it's a couple up arrows in the gobbledygook next to the send
button. Mouse over it and it will say 'Switch to plain text'. Do it again to
reverse.

Thanks to all who responded to my query about tracking software.? I have
another question.? I've been ignoring the reflector for a while, and I've
lost track of the satellites that are currently usable for voice/cw
contacts.? After some research, I have the following in my list: AO7, FO29,
SO50, VO52, AO73, LO78.?
Am I missing any?? Are the above birds (especially the newer ones) actually
available?? Thanks!

LO-78 may or may not be active for Field Day. I will continue to
monitor their Facebook page and will let the BB know if they turn it
on (if they don't post a message themselves).
AO-73 should be available in sunlight, but that depends on the command
stations switching it into continuous transponder mode on Friday
evening. They normally send a message on Friday evening UK time to the
BB that the command has been sent. Don't count on your Doppler
software to work 100% out of the box on this one. Your transmit
frequency will be 6.5+ kHz higher than it should be for Doppler
correction alone.
AO-7 has been mode jumping as the solar angles at this point in it's
orbit are not optimal for supplying full power to the satellite. With
so many stations likely to be running way too much power this weekend,
it seems likely that it will mode jump to Mode A or Mode D
(transponders off), especially on ascending passes.
FO-29, VO-52, and SO-50 should all be working great!

Paul, N8HM
