You miss the point. Of course there is room for all types and not once
did I suggest that anyone using a handheld antenna is some sort of "low
life". I'm just saying that IMO the easysat mentality has been run in
the ground as a selling point for this branch of the hobby. AMSAT needs
to break out of that mold and do something new! I'm begging! But, it
falls on deaf ears. BTW, that doesn't mean pie in the sky stuff that

withhold them till I see some change, although I won't be holding my
breath! Again, just one man's opinion but if we just continue to
maintain the status quo as it stands now, I see a dim future for this
organization. Sigh...

Michael,
I certainly see some excellent changes afoot with the GOLF program,
which AMSAT has backronym-ed into Greater Orbit Larger Footprint. Please
do check out https://www.amsat.org/category/amsat-news/golf/ regularly
for updates.
Building, testing, and launching a satellite is a complex process -- more
complex than I would have originally suspected. The process takes time,
and AMSAT is limited by ITAR as to what it can share. Want to make a change?
Write your senators and representatives about the insane idea of considering
amateur satellites as potential space weapons!
It is easy for a challenger to claim that they'll do something amazing that
the incumbent board members haven't done. However, I'd put my money on
actual progress, not talk. AMSAT has regularly launched LEO sats, with
one single failure in recent history. Fox-1E will carry a linear transponder
and is the next one to go up.[1]
Push the envelope! Get ready for 5GHz up / 10GHz down, experiment with
digital modes over linear transponders using appropriate power, work on
a portable setup for new hams, or publish an article. The future is yours
to define!
73,

Michael,
I like your points and ideas but with-holding donations or membership will
not help you or the organization. How can you expect to have AMSAT do
anything if they dont have your support; that it be financial, promoting
AMSAT, or even volunteer work. And yes your donations and membership do
make a difference. While your or my donations and membership by itself
isn't a lot, every members contribution little by little combined makes a
big difference to AMSAT. You also have to keep in mind times are different;
Space is mostly about making money now, its unfortunately not really about
being a "space cowboy" anymore like it was in the Phase 3 Project satellite
days. I myself also enjoy riving for a challenge and doing things in
amateur radio that haven't been done before or are uncommon to do. I do
really enjoy reading peoples ideas and thoughts on what they would like to
see happen, but keep it mind the only thing that is going to change
anything is not so much words but physical work. My physical work I mean
donating, keeping membership, possibly volunteering if you can, or even
just promoting amateur radio in space in general to the public. As for
AMSAT's current state, its been better then it ever has been before, We
have launched more satellites in recent AMSAT history then ever before. We
have a very strong presence in LEO, more so then ever before. Yes I want to
go to HEO/GEO and so does everyone else, but we must support and work with
each other for that to happen! I do believe great times are ahead for AMSAT.
All the best,
Nick KE8AKW

I gota Dreamcatcher Data Radiowhen they where on sale for $49.
I can confirm that you can replace the supplied USB WiFi NIC with the
TP-Link
TL-UE3000 USB Ethernet NIC.
I have to use a Pringles can on the LNB to get a marginalsignal, SNR
-12.5 to -14 dB. Every time it rains I have to readjustthe LNB.
I have senta few test ARPS messages from N4MTT-2 via rf to a local i-gate.
The messages then were seen on the down link via a text file.
The Skylark operating system has a "Messages" application that displays the
text file.
APRS Link can display the history of the messages sent to OUTNET,
https://aprs.link/app/aprs/stations/messages-OUTNET
I noticed the messages I sent to OUTNET did not receive a REPLY ACK.
There where duplicate messages on the down link from another SSID.
I wanted to avoid sending duplicate messages. In Xastir I canceled
the messages after the first message transmission.
I agreethatit "is a powerful capability" .

------------- original message -----------------------------
Hi Bob,
I have been watching Outernet/Othernet developments for a couple of years
and waiting for their system to stabilize (it still has not).
I bought a Dreamcatcher 3 Version 3.03 receiver in April when they dropped
the price to $49.00US. The User Manual may be of interest:
https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0770/0935/files/Dreamcatcher_V_3.03_SL_5.5_U
ser_Manual_1.pdf?6506786568900441680
Information about the current state of affairs is unfortunately scattered
throughout a number of threads in the Othernet forum.
As noted in the following thread, Othernet is/was dumping the Dreamcatcher
3.03
in favor of a "cost-reduced version" of the receiver:
https://forums.othernet.is/t/is-sale-price-an-omen/5974
The Dreamcatcher 3.03 uses a LoRa device for KU-band reception unlike the
older L-band receiver which was based on an RTL-SDR as noted in the this
post:
https://www.rtl-sdr.com/othernet-dreamcatcher-on-sale-for-only-49/
I am not aware of any specific information released concerning the upcoming
Othernet receiver, but it is supposed to be forthcoming soon.
The current North American downlink is about 30 kbps with 8 kbps allocated
for an audio stream (Voice of America at the moment) and the rest for files,
including the satellite APRS transmissions. The latest kits were sold with
a bare LNB,
but a number of users have been experimenting with adding a feedhorn to
improve reception:
https://forums.othernet.is/t/increasing-gain-with-15-degree-cone/5258
Some users are using re-purposed KU-band antennas as well.
Hope this helps.

Actually there is a geostationary channel that can be used by Ham Operators
that is for free.
https://othernet.is/
About 2 years ago, the APRS satellite ground station captures were made
available worldwide via three GEO satellites for reception anywhere on
earth. But I recently found that the OUTERnet system has changed to a new
GEO satellite constellation and no longer uses INMARSAT L band satellites
but is now using a KA band downlink over the USA. And that they are now
selling a new KA receiver kit for this satellite.
Has anyone kept up with them?
Here is my original WEB page but with the links changed from OUTnet to
OTHERnet, but otherwise, not kept up to date.
http://aprs.org/othernet.html
If anyone has one of their receivers or is receiving the downlink and/or
wants to help me get my web page all cleaned up to what has changed over the
last two years, let me know.
This is a powerful capability. I hope we can keep it working.
The way it is supposed to work is that you can send a specially formatted
APRS packet (position, status or message) on any APRS network (terrestrial
or satellite) and it should get parsed by the APRS-IS. Therer it can be
captured by the OTHERNET non-profit ground station and uplinked to the APRS
channel on their satellites to the downlink that anyone can receive.
Ostensibly a ham radio volunteer global emergency backup channel.
Its round-about, but a possible play-point...

Thanks, Fred. GPredict has them now, though there are now two PSAT2s in
the database (other one is 44357). PSAT2 vs the correct PSAT-2. Note
the dash. One needs to do some serious hard drive spelunking to clear
out the prior information, so I'm just going to leave it there.

It will be really fun to see both Marissa and Dhruv Rebba on the stage at
the same time. Dhruv won the Newsline award and is also an AMSAT member.
We?ve really enjoyed getting to know the Rebba family over the past year or
so. They are great people.
