Hi Tim:
Thank you for your comments.
I am always open to new ideas and I welcome your questions and observations.

Howie,
I don't know all of the obstacles involved, but your suggestion is the best one
I've heard during the course of the SuitSat-2 discussion this week. The
trade-off, of course, will be a lower orbit/smaller footprint, with passes that
are a couple of minutes shorter than those of the
Amen ... to you and to Ben.
Thanks to you both,

Hey Randy,
I use an FT-857 here, which is - for the most part - the same radio without the
provision of an internal battery pack. It is not full-duplex-capable, so you'll
need a separate receive radio. here, I use an FT-817ND. In terms of computer
control, the programs I've tried (Ham Radio
Mr. Mann and all,
I’m not sure I have a dog in this hunt, but I am an AMSAT member and
enthusiastic user of the amateur satellites and the ISS amateur station.
Before responding specifically to your most recent post, I would like to ask
anyAMSAT Board of Directors candidate who reads this to
Here, I do not change the transmit frequency from 145.850, with the 67.0 Hz PL
tone (or 74.4 Hz to arm the timer). I do not use computer controlled Doppler
tuning for SO-50 or the other two FM satellites. My experience is that computer
controlled Doppler is not necessary on the FM satellites,
Rafael and all,
I wasn't going to go here because I have before - and there's no need for a
handheld antenna conflict here on the BB. However, I have to add that as
someone who used an Arrow out of the box extensively - including to earn
Satellite VUCC all handheld - I will add to your
John and all,
I mean no disrespect, and I'll apologize now if what follows offends you or
anyone. I agree - to a point - about pointing accuracy. Let's face it - of the
three FM satellites currently available to us, SO-50 is the largest target we
have. It is a 35mm (13.78-inch) cube. We're
Congratulations Patrick!
That is a wonderful achievement - one that way fewer than the 308 before have
accomplished (i.e., Satellite WAS on the LEO satellites).
Thanks, too, for all your work to activate grids in your part of the world.
Many of us appreciate it very much.

Congratulations, Frank! I was off the air totally from 1992 until 2007,
although I kept my license current. I didn't discover the satellites until
about 15 months ago, and it's the most fun operating I've ever done. My
approach is different than many, but the old QRPer in me likes it this way

Simon,
I will be thrilled if you are able to get the Doppler-tuning function to work
with stability on a netbook with an Intel Atom processor driving an 8.9-inch
screen (the one built in to my Acer Aspire One). :)
