A South African operator is desperately in need of a component to repair his
FT-736R.
The part is an IC No. HD63A01YO (Hitachi) The FT-736R manual reference is
Yaesu Part Number G1090792, control unit F2891000A diagram item Q1008.
Does anyone in the satellite community know of a source for this
I wish I had a buck for every time I have done this. I could drink
coffee for a year at Starbuck's. Why does the technical mind (more male
than female but both nevertheless) tend to run to the worst possibility
rather than look for the simplest. I am about the worst offender I know.

The following one-minute video shows my breadboarded Arduino
(ATMega328) tracking two satellites and tuning an FT-817 in response.
It also shows the chip periodically announcing the location of the
bird in CW, and, as a bonus, you'll see AO-51 being received with a
simple dipole directly con
Hi Pete,
I will be interested in seeing what kind of answers you get to this, as it is
also a question that I have wondered. I remember when the 970 was out-it was
definitely a top of the line VHF/UHF radio but I would never have been able to
afford one at that time. THere was also an H model
To perhaps resolve the problem of the Spain interference, the audio subtones
could be used for the uplink?

Turning tone access on doesn't get rid of the interference. It only
hides it, and only when the satellite users have stronger uplink signals.
OSCAR-11 REPORT 30 November 2009
This report covers the period from 21 April 2008 to 30 November 2009.
The satellite unexpectedly resumed transmissions recently. It was first
heard by Keith N4ZQ on 19 November 2009 and transmissions continued
until it switched OF
Hi Lino,
I know you use SO-50 as well. With the subtone system we just
can not hear, what is going on.
Powerfull stations without a subtone just makes the transmitter
go off.
Since they do not use the subtone we can not hear who they are.
Thanks for the QSL cards. They arrived from the buro today.
Is there any thing going on with AO-40 such as a change
in it's status?
It sure was fun working it.

Hi
Great to have such positive news about China's entry into the amateur radio
satellite field.
Alan Kungs recent posting was most encouraging. Will the space authorities in
China will have a similar positve attitude towards amateur radio within their
ambitious manned spaceflight program ? I h

I rest my case, and you were right, use all 5 senses. ;)

Hi John,
I would say it's pretty much dead. It's just the fact nobody wants to play
taps. Many, including myself, would just love to have it magically
re-appear and work like nothing ever happened. Unfortunately, I don't see
this occuring. I can't seem to recall if there ever was an "offici
