Here is some excerpts from the 03:11 UTC ARISSat-1 on ISS pass over Orlando, FL. I deleted stretches of noise between the audio I heard as to make this short. First is a little of the voice telemetry, then the ID and message, finally a faint SSTV frame that starts just as it goes over the horizo

2011-02-11 Thread Bobby Lacey
I'm new to the SSB birds having just purchased a TS-2000. Unfortunately my radio and computer are about 25ft apart which makes tuning the uplink correction for SatPC32 pretty difficult. Would anyone mind sharing their doppler.sqf for the TS-2000 w/ uplink adjustments? Thanks so much for the help &

2011-02-11 Thread Ted
The satellite program in HRD does not appear to list the ARISSat-1, thus there is no Kepler data and no way to track it in the program. Does anyone know how to put the ARISSat-1 into the program? Tnx, Ted K7TRK ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. Opinion
