reduce the horrendous amount of interference homeplug type devices cause.
Does anyone know if ARRL is also attempting to get notches for

Hello Jim,
as Alan, VE4YZ, wrote already you can run the FT-736R with SatPC32 directly
at a serial port of the PC. You need a CAT interface for level conversion

find a schematic of an interface that can easily be built by

It is kind of funny. more will be spent on this launch (for 2 minutes of
flight give or take) then Elon Musk has spent so far on his entire effort to
develop Falcon 9 and he is going to try and go to orbit late November (give or

I used a small radio shack board, a couple of transistors, and 2 DPDT (could be
SPDT) 5V relays
to duplicate the interface in the G5400B controller in the KR-500, including
the DIN plug connection.
The LVB tracker should easily interface to the G5400B Yaesu rotor controller.

There satellite tracking programs.
I can remember getting on FO-20 every day for years with about
4 operators every day for years without a tracking program at
all.
Hi Samundra,
don't see which path loss you assumed, but for 1 AU (149 mill km), I
calculate 286 dB @32 GHz.
Also 3000K seems much to bad.. assume 300K.
So let's add up for 1 AU:
40 dBm (10W) +2x56.4 dBi -286 = -133.2 dBm at RX input
1 Gbit/s assumes 1 GHz bandwidth. 300K is roughly -174
Great program.
Why not have one for Amsat-BB?

My Yaesu G 5400 Elevation rotator decided to quit working Friday morning.

And to my amazement, it worked. The
If the motor is actually moving, but the antennas are not, then there's got to
be a loose bolt between the motor and the boom. Maybe when it's cold at night
things contract a bit and it holds?
If it's not that, then there's probably a stripped gear internally, and that
would be bad news.
