2010-08-08 Thread Henrik Norenius
Hi.

A common problem with Win 7 that I've noticed is that if the software is 
a bit older and isn't started as administrator, it can't access the com 
ports.
So you might want to try and right click on the program icon and choose 
run as administrator.

Might solve the problemor not :-)

2010-08-08 Thread Erich Eichmann
Hi Wilse,
tell a bit more details, please.
What Windows 7 do you run, 32-bit or 64-bit?
Has your PC a physical COM port or a PCI card with 1 or more COM ports or do 
you use a USB-to-Serial adapter? The USB-to-Serial adapters require Windows 
7 compatible drivers.

What is the COM port number of your port? You can check that with the 
Windows device manager, LPT and COM ports.

I have no problems with rotor steering via a COM port under Windows 7, 
32-bit and Vista 32- and 64-bit via physical ports and also via 
USB-to-Serial adapters (Prolific and FTDI).

There is a link Vista and Windows 7 compatibility on my website 
www.dk1tb.de , Englisch page Downloads with detailed information.

73s, Erich, DK1TB

[amsat-bb] AMSAT Board Candidates' Bios

2010-08-08 Thread Clint Bradford
Don't want this to turn into a political rant thread ... But as I peruse the 
biographies of the fine folks who are running for AMSAT's BOD, I wish the 
current board would just quickly meet and vote to increase the number of board 
members to accommodate ALL the candidates. What a marvelous amount of talent 
and experience ... It will be a shame to exclude ANY of these fine people.

Just Clint's opinion, of course.

Clint, K6LCS

[amsat-bb] AO-51 Active??

2010-08-08 Thread Rick - WA4NVM
Hi All,

No one in the Memphis area heard the low pass of AO-51 around 2053Z today.

Is it down? or are we in a black hole in BBQ town USA?

Hi Rick,

Something is amiss.  I caught the tail end of the pass and didn't have to time 
to figure it out.  I did try sending transmitter ON commands, but doubt they 
got in...

I'll catch it next pass over eastern US.
