Hi Rick and the group,
Your welcome! I figured this would be the best way to get a rough idea of
what grids are being searched for by people who have been working the birds
for some time. At least it's a baseline and something to build on for the
future. This data can be used for those who t

How does one add SO-67 to the SatPC32 sqf,files to make the software track and
control the radio for doppler. I found SO-67 in the Wisat32 and up it in the
available Sats to use and I copy/pasted and edited a file for this Sat in the

Ladies & Gentlemen,
Here's the main thing to think about ITAR. ITAR regulates OUTFLOW of
information, it doesn't care about INFLOW of information. If you build
or design it by a non-US Person (Citizen or Legal Permanent Resident)
and you bring it INTO the US, ITAR does not care. So AMSAT-NA can

Tks for collecting and assembling all the data, Jeff.
I've got a trip lined up to Texas in January with DL88 as the primary

what I can to put a dent in those numbers by operating from a bunch of

That's woefully incorrect on many fronts.

A good post. We are indeed adapting to the Brave New World of ITAR, and we
are not alone in that. At a recent SmallSat meeting I attended, there was
even a tutorial for companies large and small, large being the size of
Boeing. It was about how to work with and around ITAR if you are invo
Can anyone who is running a Uni_Trac 2000 or 2003 zip me up your .sat files

easy solution would be if someone can send me the files they use.

When attempting to make a contact on the sats one of the customs is to add

Probably not.
Adding some descriptive term to your call is likely to be acted upon only by
those interested in, or with an
understanding of, your term. It just wastes time.
Add "roving" to your call and my response will likely be "so what?"

Interesting stuff Alex.
I'm currently working on an FM satellite station as that's all I can
afford at present but I hope some of the NextGen birds will carry linear
transponders too. At any rate, it all sounds very exciting.

Hi Michael,
When the display dies, does the rest of the box keep working? If the whole
thing dies, then I'd suspect the 7805 (5v) power supply. Does the 7805 get
hot? If so, that's the problem; they have a built-in thermal shutdown for
over-temp and/or over-current. What sort of heat sink
