[amsat-bb] Re: LituanicaSAT-1 reboot test - reports requested
Dear radio amateurs, Thank You very much for your reports. Reset has been confirmed, during the 6:30 UTC pass over Lithuania we have switched on to safe mode to re-charge the battery as the voltage has dropped down quite substantially. All radio transmissions are currently stopped. 73, Laurynas, LY1LM ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?

Jerry, We were making changes in the server. After the change, we verified that things were working with SatPC32. However, something isn't working now. We will take a look at what has gone wrong. Apologies for the inconvenience.

[amsat-bb] Re: Keps
Thank you for reporting this, Jerry. As Alan said, we made a test to determine that the "redirection" change I implemented a couple of days ago would not affect SatPC32 users, but it was apparently not a thorough test. I reverted the change, so you and other SatPC32 users will not be inconvenienced further. If anyone notices new problems crop up please cc: webmas...@amsat.org for fastest resolution. I just happened to scan amsat-bb during my lunch break today and saw this.I am implementing some back room infrastructure upgrades, so there may be other hiccups observed over the next few weeks. -Joe -Joe KM1P > Jerry, > > We were making changes in the server.

[amsat-bb] Re: Keps
Can another MacDoppler user verify that they were able/not able to download the Keps after this issue came up? I THINK mine did not but wasn’t paying enough attention to the voice announcement from MD that any data was actually updated.

[amsat-bb] For Sale: FT-847
I am posting this for local friend, as it is of interest to the satellite community: For Sale- Yaesu FT-847, S/N 91250171. This is a very clean radio from a non-smoking environment. I do not have the original box but I do have the power cord, microphone, amplifier keying cable and manual. It was used for satellite operations, but has served as a spare for the past six years. Can deliver to Dayton next week on Friday or until noon on Saturday. Price is $1050 plus shipping and I will split the shipping costs. Contact Jack Cox, KA4OTB at 615.715.9626 or ka4...@comcast.net. We have verified that it has the fully bidirectional CAT. If interested, please contact Jack DIRECTLY for more information. 73s, Alan WA4SCA ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.

[amsat-bb] Re: Keps (MacDoppler)
Dino, Look at the kepler.dat file in the Finder. It resides in the MacDoppler data folder. You can look at the "modified" date in the Finder, or open the file in TextEdit... the date should show at the top of the opened document. The above instructions are for MacDopplerPro_X2.9.3. If you are using a different version, you could possibly find the kepler.dat file in another location.

[amsat-bb] Re: AO-07 Telemetry
I have no idea. It's something interesting at about 145.975 +/- Kind of sounds like the RTTY telemetry. I recorded this on May 2nd at about 2100 UTC. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9V9poEfvbabd0N2R1RfRkRnOGc/edit?usp=sharing 73, Paul, N8HM On Thu, May 8, 2014 at 9:06 PM, E.

[amsat-bb] Re: AO-07 Telemetry
By the way, I heard nothing on the 2 meter beacon frequency while AO-7 was in constant sunlight. I only started hearing this transmission once the eclipse cycle started. I never heard the 435.100 MHz beacon when AO-7 was in Mode A (I tried three times on nearly overhead passes). I also never heard anything on the 29.502 MHz beacon frequency, though that may be more due to using inadequate antennas. 73, Paul, N8HM On Thu, May 8, 2014 at 9:06 PM, E.

[amsat-bb] Re: AO-07 Telemetry
http://www.ka9q.net/AMSAT-Newsletter-1974.pdf Start around page 75. Keep in mind much of the telemetry is gibberish now, but there are all the modes and combinations. I have noticed in the past that the CW beacon is usually only active when the satellite has reset recently. In fact, the CW beacon is how we knew AO-7 had resurrected! 73, Drew KO4MA -Original Message- >From: Paul Stoetzer >Sent: May 8, 2014 10:29 PM >To: "E.
