[amsat-bb] AMSAT bb
Glen, I see you have been sucessful in posting to the AMSAT BB. I have made several attempts to post a question I have about the old track box but it never appears. I have used amsat-bb@amsat.org. All indications are it goes out, doesn't appear in the undeliverable box but nothing on the daily list of messages. Used the address that worked for years in my address book, typed it by hand uppercase, lower case and it just disappears into a black hole. Used to have no problem but since things changed on the bb awhile back no luck. Any help?? 73 Tom K8TL ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author.

Re: [amsat-bb] AMSAT-BB Digest, Vol 9, Issue 203
The other day I was using my Yeasue el/az rotator just fine in flip mode with sat-pc and PST-rotator. Today trouble. In Pst-rotator If I ask for 90 the position bar showed actual 120 and it continues to show about 30 degrees off all the way to 359 where it will stop 30 degrees in advance of where it should since it thinks it is there. Is this one of those problems that happens when the wire breaks on the resister or perhaps something else? It has been loyal for many years. Is it time to send it back for repair? Any help would be good.

Last night he was calling CQ on FO-29 from EL00. I do not believe he made any successful contacts due in part to many stations calling CQ within 3 kHz of him. There may have been other factors. Having operated many times portable, I can assure you that neighboring stations on adjacent frequencies can pose challenges. I am not laying blame but rather making an observation. Please, consider moving away from FO-29's passband center if you intend to operate portable. As a general rule on FO-29 I try to transmit portable below 145.93 and above 145.97. As a portable station this provides some shielding from the death zone of higher power, fixed stations who always seem to appear and call CQ +/- 10 kHz of the transponder's center frequency.

Yahoo changed something in how E-Mails are rejected and quite a few people have been getting such notifications from several reflectors. I got one from several including the AMSAT reflector. I just replied to the notice and, so far, everything is fine now. I use Yahoo for things like reflectors to keep SPAM away from my primary E-Mail addresses.

[amsat-bb] AMSAT-BB from K9TSU
Hello fellow ham-ers, I am proud to say that I will start a Saturday Night Sat-Chat on the *AMSAT* Echolink server. This will be Saturday Nights, every Saturday Night, from 7PM central time to 8:30pm central time. That's 0100 Sunday (UTC) to 0230 Sunday (UTC). I will be 'net manager,' but this is an open net. Every satellite operator is welcome to jump in. This will basically be a large round-table, and after every rotation people are welcome to jump in. I will not be net control. There won't be a net control. Just a place/time for an open net of satellite operators or hams wanting to be satellite operators to ask questions or talk about that rare satellite DX. Feel free to connect your -L or -R nodes, or just yourself. Please keep the participants to hams that are interested in becoming satellite ops or are already satellite ops, or ones that are curious what this is about. Thanks, K9TSU, Vince, en52, Wisconsin.

So I think everyone read the announcement ARRL made before FD. Now that FD weekend is at an end, can someone explain to me why NASA couldn't let the astronauts have 10 minutes on the radio for one pass? I mean were they having issues with the radio itself? I still don't see a 26th timeline as I thought that might give me a clue on why this weekend was an epic failure (I mean I couldn't even hear the digipeater at times). -aps (KC2ZSX) ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.

Hi Bill, I am using the LVB tracker with the G-5500 and controlling them with the SatPC-32 software. My experience with this system has been very pleasing, straight forward and plug play. The documentation for the LVB is excellent and the same is true for SatPC-32. Setting the calibration between the LVB and the G-5500 was a snap, with very easy to follow instructions. Supporting AMSAT by purchasing the LVB is icing on the cake. My 2 cents.
