If the Kenwood is full-duplex, why don't they claim that anywhere in their
literature?

No idea why it's not in the literature, but it definitely is full duplex,
just like the earlier models of the D7 series.

[amsat-bb] Re: CO6CBF/p EL93, 82, 81, 72 and 71

2014-04-13 Thread Hector, CO6CBF
Hello to all

 

I just finished logging all contacts done during my recent grid trip. 87
QSOs were logged and uploaded to LoTW using just CO6CBF.

 

Please, If you need a paper QSL card,  request it  to my QSL manager:
George, WA5KBH. I just sent him the logs.  

George reported that he already had some QSL requests waiting for my logs
and he will work on return cards this evening and early week.

 

Once again, thanks very much for all  the great contacts and all the fun!

 

73!

 

Hector, CO6CBF / KF5YXV

Take a look at page 38 of the above manual PDF. It does it, they just don't
realize what this particular feature means to us...

So it does! Probably because the manual has no mention of satellite
operation at all.

2014-04-13 Thread Alan
I ask about that yearly at Dayton.  The answers, when not blank expressions, 
are along the lines of
"Satellite operators already know this, and are a tiny fraction of our market 
compared to APRS."
Obviously my suggestion that adding the phrase "Full Duplex Satellite Capable" 
might increase that
fraction has fallen on deaf ears.
