The last I knew, Nova didn't control Doppler by itself only rotor control.
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong about this.
SatPC32 is the software to go with for both rotor and Doppler control.
Somebody out there should have a 910 set up with SatPC32!
SatPC32 is somewhat hard to get going and operate but runs really well once
you get used to it.
Look in your 910 manual and see if there is an display indicator that comes
on when you establish communications between the radio and the PC. This might
tell you if you are successful in communicating with the rig.
If I can be any help please email. I'm using an FT-847, but I have a
detailed setup procedure around here somewhere.
Please let us know if you are having any success.

Hi Scott,
I am using the GS-232B/G-5500 with SatPC32 (Yaesu_GS-232 rotor
selection)
and a Kenwood TS-2000X and it works very well. I haven't tried it with
Nova.
SatPC32 does have a radio selection for the 910H so I presume SatPC32
would
control both Doppler and your rotor just fine. You could download the
trial
version (http://www.dk1tb.de/satpcsetup_a.ZIP) and give it a try. If
you are
a member of AMSAT then it would only be $45 to register the
application.
SatPC32 is a little complex at first; however, if you spend some time
to get
comfortable with it, I am sure you will like it.
I hope you get everything working.

Hope I can get some good feedback on this issue.
I bought a GS-232B and "assumed" (sigh) that it would be backwards
compatible (meaning anything written for any GS-232 would work)
I don't seem so lucky (or at least it seams that way with NOVA for
Windows).
I'm looking for suggestions on what software package (or combination) I
need to control my ICOM 910H and my GS-232B.
Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated

If this will help, I can purchase one and ship it to you via US mail.
With duplexer, they are approx. $130US. US Priority Mal to Spain is
approx. $32US.

I've been using an old AWE64 soundblaster. My use is used with
PacketEngine SW and using UISS for packets thru APRS. It seems to work ok.
So..if that one works, probably any card that will go into your pc would
work--just a guess.
I am looking into higher perf cards for use with a SDR project --there
the 24 bit 96K or better performance is definitely a plus.

I use MacDoppler very successfully all the time. What it does on
birds like AO-16 is what called full doppler correction. In other
words it adjusts the uplink frequency so that it is received at the
satellite at a constant frequency. It also adjusts the downlink
frequency on the radio to hear the same frequency adjusted for doppler.

Please, PLEASE! If someone is on a J-FM satellite with rare-to-uncommon
grid square(s), don't contact people you have worked before, especially
those you've worked often. If you do, then people like the Swan Island
DXpedition won't bother with satellite as it won't be worth carrying the
equipment.
Last week, I was about 30 feet (10m) from a grid square corner on private
property, and i was only able to give out two of the four grid squares
(at least one was uncommon-to-rare) because of the chaos on AO-27 that
pass. Since i record all nearly all J-FM passes, i was planning to take
contacts three at a time from two grid square boundaries; but that just
wasn't possible. So i don't think i even got everyone from the northern
grid square pair.
PLEASE, on transcontinental passes and especially with very rare grids,
save your routine traffic for other time. In most places, there are lots
of other passes (especially on SO-50) where there were very few people on.
I was at CN85/CN86 yesterday on SO-50 and there was only one station to
work! 'Regulars', instead of chatting with your fiends, please briefly
explain the situation and/or suggest that people work the uncommon/rare
grids [as several 'regulars' do already]. Many folks don't have the time
(or bandwidth) to read AMSAT-BB.
Hope to talk to you on the way south through central Oregon and perhaps
eastern California. I'm still hoping for at least one grid square corner.
And please wait until after the Swan Islands are out of the footprint to
work me.
73's and good luck!

Mike,
I went to the AMSAT Store to purchase PCSAT32 and it's CLOSED until further
notice (sigh)
To buy anything, you have to call "Martha", but she is out of town until the
25th.
I have heard GREAT things about PCSAT32, and in the couple times I've played
with it I haven't had a lot of time to dig deeply into it.
You are right that NOVA does not control Doppler (as far as I can see).
I have played quite a bit with Ham Radio Deluxe, and I think it's a GREAT
program.
I wonder if anyone has got it to work with WiSP & the GS-232B?

John,
Yesterday on AO-27 pass I listened the way everybody behaved on the satellite
it was a shame that nobody bothered that you were in a double, and uncommon
grid square...the same happened on the 1st nightly pass of AO-51 in which
nobody seemed to listen before transmiting.. and everybody was calling
nobody.. if we use single channel satellites we should behave with courtesy
specially when a gridxpedition is taking place....I can imagine your
frustration working QRP...
Group...
I Support the idea that John is bringing up and Please try to promote this
between your fellow operators...

Scott,
I use SatPC32 and WiSP at the same time. I let SatPC32 control both doppler
and rotor while WiSP controls the TNC and data. Works great!

Which is my point. One of the reasons we don't hear many
mobiles is because of how we still promote AMSATS to the other
99% of ham radio operators as big antennas, big AZ/EL arrays,
fancy computer controllers and operating from our shack to be
able to have all that stuff. Items #1,2,3,4 above are what we
overlook.
This is also why 99.9% of ham radio overlooks EmComm via our
satellites too..

With the ever increasing madhouse that AO-51 is becoming, and with
spring just around the corner adding more users to the satellite, I've
typed up a fairly simple "do's and don'ts" guide to working AO-51. The
guide focuses more on etiquette and operational guidelines rather then
technical ideas, because there are already some excellent guides out
there for the new user to read up on.
This was more or less conceived one night in #amsat on irc.dishnuts.net
while discussing the operational issues on AO-51. The satellite is a
very good, very easy satellite to get into, however, the more people jam
on, the harder it is for people to use it. So, myself, John (KB2HSH),
Charles (N3CRT), and Mark (KF6KYI) all tossed around ideas on what is
more a less a good "code of conduct" for AO-51 operation.

You can download the entire program and run it in demo mode, which is
completely functional, and purchase the registration code when Martha
returns. Here is the link: http://www.dk1tb.de/downloadeng.htm .
SatPC32 is by far the most reliable and has the best features of any of the
programs I've used, which is a fair amount. Plus, 100% of the registration
goes to AMSAT. Erich has really done a most incredible and generous thing
with the program.

Hi All,
I've been working on a general c/c++ astrodynamics library. It is
strictly a work in progress, and so far only includes the basic
astronomy routines. Next up will be the orbit propagators, and tracking
stuff. Anyway, its time for it to see the outside world. It can be
downloaded from here:
http://homepage.mac.com/pclwillmott/GAL/index.html
Its released under GPL 2 and was developed under OSX using the GNU
development tools, so should compile OK on UNIX / GNU Linux / and under
cygwin in Windows.
The routines are primitives, and it is deliberatly not framework based,
so you can rip bits for your projects without lots of baggage.
Please let me know any comments.

hi Ben
have read your little piece on courteous AO51 Operation with interest and in
general I toady agree with you, my only comment is why only AO51, because the
other single channel satellites are almost as bad even the newly resurrected
AO16 is a bit of a mad house a lot of the time here in Europe.
I therefore suggest you rename your title as 'Courteous Single Channel
