[amsat-bb] Installing/running WISP in Vista 64 bit problem
Hi, I got this question, and not having a 64 bit OS, don't have a solid answer. PKWARE is still around, and does have according to their web site a 64 bit version, though it may not be freeware. Any help I can pass on about whether there is a way to do this, and particularly whether WISP will run at all on a 64 bit machine?

[amsat-bb] HO-68 (changing modes, commands)
Hello, On the weekend, during one of the XW-1/HO-68 passes schedulle for change the "beacon/TLM only" to "beacon/TLM + FM repeater" mode, It was clear the temporarily interruption of TLM data flow for their quickly return from the beggining of the TLM frame with new status, exactly on the time combined. So CE3RR was well heard in FM downlink. My neophyte question is: The satellite was over Chile that time. Do we need an earth ground station in South America, inside the footprint of the satellite, to send the operational changing command to the bird for HO-68 real time answer to the request or only the Chinese controler sent the command, for satellite store the information and, at appropriated time, far way from Asian footprint, HO-68 active the ordered?

[amsat-bb] Re: HO-68 first QSO over Europe
Hi Matt and all Thank you for your reply and correction of my 'arrogant' post. I do not think that was a problem of tropospheric scatter, since HB9OAB was heard during the whole pass. May be, as OZ1MY has pointed out, there were 100's of station trying to enter and the receiver could not demodulate any of them. At low elevation, when in the footprint were only Greece, Italy and Ucraine, QSOs were made easily and with strong signals. We look forward for the next passes to understand the problem. Marry Christmas to all and my best wishes for a happy and fruitful new year. 73 de Evan, SV1EEK - Original Message - From: "Mateusz" To: Sent: Tuesday, December 22, 2009 4:30 PM Subject: [amsat-bb] Re: HO-68 first QSO over Europe > > - Original Message - > From: "?. ?" > To: > Sent: Monday, December 21, 2009 9:05 PM > Subject: [amsat-bb] HO-68 first QSO over Europe > > >> Dear friends, >> HO-68 over Europe is a reality, but with some degree of frustation.

[amsat-bb] Another Bradford DUH! Moment
I am preachin' to the choir here with this post, I am sure. But since Southern California was under STORMWATCH again last night (we're expecting at least 0.03" of precipitation), I decided to build one of those cheap "tape measure 2M Yagi" antennas from plans seen all over the Web. I mean, I mention them during my satellite presentations as an affordable entry into high-gain ... I have a couple links on my Work-Sat Web site for plans ... I can see in theory where they should work - but I've never built one myself. So I stuck the PVC pipes together ... soldered the matching element ... straightened it all out, and took it outside for a test. OH MY GAWD. This is something that EVERY ham should do. What a dramatic increase in a handheld's performance a couple dollars' worth of stuff can accomplish! I heard a NOAA WX station (technically, out of range for this 2M Yagi) in San Diego that I have never heard from the house before. Every repeater of the six I immediately hit were received more clearly than with even the best of HT antennas ... and as good or better than my Cushcraft A148-3S (retailing for sixty bucks). Sorry - have to stop writing. I am way too old to get this excited about this hobby ... Clint Bradford, K6LCS http://www.work-sat.com ___ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org.

I'll get the command station to look into why she's off the air. 73, Drew KO4MA ___ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?

[amsat-bb] AO-51 and AO-7 status
AO-51 is almost back to normal. The normal repeater is running at 400mw, and the telemetry downlink at 620mw. After everything is reloaded and double checked, we'll shift the majority of power over to the repeater and turn the L uplink for the PBBS back on. Thank you to those who sent reports and telemetry over the last few days; it was helpful. Please understand if we don't get a chance to answer and thank you all individually. I also had a discussion with the primary AO-7 command station this evening, and he will begin to investigate what has happened to AO-7. There is a possibility that it simply glitched into another mode and is stuck there until it is commanded back, or until eclipses return. AO-7 is still solidly in continuous illumination at present. Be prepared, there may be much less palatable scenarios as well. This satellite is 35 years old, one of the oldest functional satellites anywhere, and to say we have had her on borrowed time is an understatement. Please post all observations of activity on the downlinks to amsat-bb; we really only need to know if you did hear it. Check 435.100 along with the transponder downlinks and beacons.
