Would it therefor have to be shutdown over the USA?
Why I read the rules I would have to say YES.

The FUNcube and SDR-Radio work great together. Transmit control for
satellite use in SDR-Radio is very limited (non-existent from what I
have been able to find).
I would like the FUNcube / SDR-Radio combination to act like a simple
receiver under cat control from SatPC32 or similar program. I woul
Take a look at SatControl_FCD. I haven't tried it with SDR-Radio, but with
WR-Plus and the Ext_IO DLL, it makes the FunCube Dongle into a very nice
satellite receiver.

If interested, drop me a note with a reasonable offer. Unit is serial# 820
and works great. Just don't use it.

Hi George,
Yes, the FUNcube dongle makes a great sat receiver with many of the
programs that are out there. There is little problem getting the FCD
to work as a great sat receiver. The emphasis in most SDR programs
that I have tried is (that is not a big surprise). Support

Hello Tom,
I would like to understand the reason for your comment about the
future being limited to FM satellites. It seems FUNcube, FOX-2 and
Phase 3E projects would prove otherwise.

Clayton,
The activity level on the linear sats is very low and does not seem to
be getting any better. Not sure why. Perhaps it is cost or complexity
or problems putting up outside antennas. It is rather sad working
linear sat passes with no one else on them. At least I can hear my own

Tom, one thing that would help is dragging SatPC32 into the 21st Century. I
find it almost unusable. Too bad the sat program in HRD has problems
tracking the linears...

Hi Ted,
Appreciate your concern. However, SatPC32 is written and maintained by
Erich without ANY compensation by us. He donated the program and any
updates to AMSAT for them to sell. It's a one man personal hobby and
dedication and has served many of us very well. Sure would be nice to have

I am afraid you're right, Tom, and it pains me to admit it. I am not
sure why activity has dropped off.. but I can say in my own case I lost
interest in satellite operating after AO-40 died and have gone on to
other things ( EME ) to use the existing equipment I had.
From northern Vermont I ca
Please explain how you would "Drag SatPC32 into the 21st Century"?
What don't you like about it? What makes it (for you) "almost unusable"?
I've been using it since 1999 or so, and have never found it to be
particularly hard to use. Setup can be less than trivial, but yet I've
found it to be F
I believe that, "if you build it they will come". From the movie. Right now
we're playing "small ball". If there were a HEO on the horizon there would be
an incredible scramble for whatever it takes. I recall the initial days of
AO-40 (sobsob). We became S band experts almost overnight! I still
