Has anyone had any issues trying to carry an Arrow Sat antenna as a
carry on on a airplane? Am going to be doing some traveling and would
like to take it along to make some contacts.

Over a year ago, I flew on a domestic flight to another province. I partly

I have found firsthand that verticals, J poles, and the like work pretty
good on FM satellites. How well do these same antennas work on the SSB
satellites? Would they make VO52 usable? That seems to be the easiest of
the SSB sats to get into. What about FO29?

I am using an Olympus digital audio recorder for logging LEO passes,
because I can directly transfer a .wma to my PC from it (versus the
tape recorder I used in the 90's).
I am using an extension clip-on mic. I am finding that it generates a lot of
RF crud on 435, enough to swamp the RX if I am
hey what's going on? amsat-bb got quiet all of the suddentoo quiet! :)
I'm trying to connect to ISS using AGWPE with my soundcard. can anyone help me
with this? How does one connect to the ISS digipeater? Are there
documentation on the AMSAT site or elsewhere? Any help would be

There are LOTS of reasons that the bird could have failed, in my viewpoint the
BEST one is that the battery has some issues. Operating the vehicle in a
thermal environment that it was not designed for would be a first guess,
followed by some sort of crib death issue, and next comes parts
My understanding was that the D-700 was turned off. Packet transmission
began soon after the posted time for ARISSat to be powered off. Since
theory and conjecture abound I would toss out a theorie that they did turn
it on but were unaware it was not transmitting. Until they actually say
what
Hi David,
Agree with your comments, I am sure many were waiting egarly to hear the
signals from ARRISsat.I think the team must have documented some key
learnings from this which will help during the July launch of the satellite.
