But the output is merely text (azimuth/elevation). A map of the footprint would be really nice. 20+ years ago Instant Track displayed a footprint with a 20 MHz processor. Today's processors are vastly more powerful, but no Android application displays a footprint? I guess that's because only hams care about it... Another useful Android application is "Grid Locator". Launch the app and it displays the 6-digit Maidenhead Grid of the phone's location. GPS must be enabled or it says you're in grid JJ00aa.

[amsat-bb] ND9M/MM Ops: 26 Feb
I was able to get BM55 into a few logs and BM75 into a bunch of them today, despite the crappy weather out on the Pacific. (There were no sigs other than my own on a morning VO52 pass covering some western states when I was in BM65, so that one went by the wayside.) We've got at least another day of this before the weather and seas clear up. Here's the sked for tonight and tomorrow: FO29 - 26/1022Z - should be in BM85 VO52 - 26/1727Z - BM95 SO50 - 26/2024Z - BM95 or CM05 AO27 - 26/2136Z - CM05 SO50 - 26/2208Z - CM05 FO29 - 27/0244Z - CM05 VO52 - 27/0420Z - CM05 or CM15 SO50 - 27/0500Z - CM05 or CM15 VO52 - 27/0555Z - CM15 FO29 - 27/1106Z - CM15 These passes occur during my work hours. I'll make 'em if possible. AO51 - 27/0053Z - CM05 FO29 - 27/0059Z - CM05 73, Jim, ND9M / VQ9JC Grid BM85 ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author.

[amsat-bb] AO-51 S-band // WIFI USB dongle as receiver?
Hello to the AMSAT brain trust. I am new to satellites and have a new person question: > Is there any way to utilize a WIFI (2.4 GHZ, 13cm) USB dongle (with SMA ant. port) into a gain antenna, and successfully receive the S-band downlink from AO-51? This is a 13cm transceiver, but I suspect the answer is no. I already have a 24db gain dish, so I thought I would ask. Outside of WIFI, is there anything useful I can do with this dongle? The more conventional units (transverters, receivers, etc.) are a bit spendy for me right now. thanks. paul ac0z ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author.

There are 2 that come to mind: HamSat Droid and DroidSat. They both do different things and make a great combo. HamSat Droid is a satellite prediction app and DroidSat allows you to locate the bird in the sky like a spotter scope. So use HamSat Droid to predict the bird's pass and use DroidSat to aim your hand held antenna! ~73, AC2RF Ron On Fri, Feb 25, 2011 at 7:05 PM, Wayne Estes wrote: > What are the preferred Android satellite tracking programs for ham > satellites?

[amsat-bb] Re: IC-9100
Time will tell if the IC-9100 = IC7600+IC910. I am about ready to let loose of my FT-847 (maybe). I have a Elecraft-K3 (HF/6m) + 144/28 and 1296/28 transverters. Selling the FT-847 would allow purchase of a 432/28 and maybe a 222/28 (but this is not part of the discussion re> sat radios). Of course the K3 will not do cross-band duplex (yet), so for that I would have to bring my FT-817 into the picture. So how does this stack up in $$$ K3/100 ($2000) + $600 x 3 = $3500 add a couple 100w amps and you have over the cost of a IC-9100. How do they stack up in performance? for satellites probably fine; on HF? Any other problems (like birdies)?? Comparing the IC-9100 to non-sat radios is probably not fair. 73, Ed - KL7UW At 01:08 PM 2/25/2011, John Geiger wrote: >It seems to be price about right.

Andreas, It must come with a free small car...Hi, Hi. Icom will have a problem selling it for even $2000. Once again, The manufacturer's don't listen to the Ham crowd. Did anyone ask for this radio? Maybe they donate $3000 to AMSAT for an HEO bird for every one sold? What a fund raiser that would be. Oh well, we can wish and fun about it.

[amsat-bb] Re: IC-9100
I have both an FT-847, and a TS-790. I prefer the FT-847 for satellite work, and the TS-790 for weak signal work. It's mostly what I'm used to, and the '847 seems to be easier to use for satellites.The TS-790 seems to have a better receiver, and one of these days I'll use my IF-232 to run it with SatPC32 to see how well it works on satellites. They're both very nice radios. 73, Jim KQ6EA On 02/25/2011 08:01 PM, John Geiger wrote: > But just because something is listed as a satellite radio, why only limit it > to the satellite bands?

If you set the Flex emulation to TS-2000 it works, somewhat. For instance, the SATPC32ISS works fine as far as controlling the rig. The problem is that while the rig hardware is full duplex, the existing Flex software does not support the TS-2000 satellite/full duplex mode. There are some other issues such as the FM not working quite right. Flex is slowly working through these issues, and when the PowerSDR version 2.1 is available it should be great satellite rig. Flex is using SATPC32 in their testing, so it WILL work Real Soon Now.

There aren't any satellites on 6M. There's always the "old fashioned" solution, an HF receiver, an HF transmitter and a pair of converters or transverters. They're still available for the microwave bands. There must be older 2M and 70cM multimode rigs available used ( IC211E, TS700, IC202/404 etc) that will happily drive transverters for the higher bands and amplifiers for their own band.
