PSAT2 was originally conceived 4 years ago as PSAT-2 in contrast to the
original PSAT. But since we use PSAT when the digi is on, and PSAT-1 when
the digi is off, then it was a problem with what to do about PSAT-2.
So we put the "2" in the name so we could use the SSID to indicatet a
change of state. So PSAT2-1 is safemode with DIGI off and PSAT2 is the
callsign when the digi is on. Jusst like PSAT-1 and PSAT.
Right now, the DIGI is off since the uplink is on 145.98 for DTMF-grid
experiment.

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.

PY5LF pointed out that the DTMF grid uplink has been working fine on
PSAT2, and generating QSO numbers, but that the QSL response so people can
make two-way contacts was not working.
That was because we did not have DTMF Messaging enabled. The QSL response
is a message and so we enabled that this morning.
To QSL a GRID QSO number you simply send back a message #40 with his QSO
number to complete the exchange. See the other 90 or so DTMF messages on
PSAT2:

BRICSAT2 and PSAT2 Designated Navy-OSCAR 103 (NO-103) and Navy-
OSCAR 104 (NO-104)
On June 25, 2019, the United States Naval Academy PSAT2 and BRICSAT2
cubesats were launched on a Falcon Heavy launch vehicle from the
Kennedy Space Center in Florida. PSAT2 and BRICSAT2 were developed by
Naval Academy students in the USNA Satellite Lab and operated in
cooperation with the USNA Amateur Radio Club. PSAT2 carries a PSK31
transponder, digipeater, SSTV-downlinked camera images, and a DTMF to
voice/APRS system. BRICSAT2 carries a digipeater and thruster
experiment. Both satellites are currently active.
At the request of the Naval Academy Amateur Radio Club, AMSAT hereby
designates BRICSAT2 as Navy-OSCAR 103 (NO-103), and PSAT2 as Navy-
OSCAR 104 (NO-104). We congratulate the owners and operators, thank
them for their contribution to the amateur satellite community, and
wish them a long mission and continued success on this and future
projects.

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if someone can help me with an issue I am having with
setting up Satpc32 and my Spid Ras rotor.? SatPC32 asks for a parallel port
of 1-4 in the set up menu, while the Spid Ras controller set up a serial
port (com port 8 in my case).? How do I reconcile the two?
Thanks,
