(The downlink freq displayed on SatPC32 matched what the rig's display showed, so the rig and program are talking fine.)\n\nWith each correction applied, the disparity between the new downlink freq and what I?was actually hearing would quickly widen. Soon, I would have to manually re-tune the station again to clarify the signal; the uplink?seemed to follow my hands on?changes though, so that seemed to be a functional \"band aid\".\n\nThere's one issue on my end that may figure in. My FT-817ND is at Yaesu for a warranty repair, so I'm currently limited to half duplex only with my FT-897D. With that single-rig config, I can't use a rapid correction interval because the rig switches VFOs at the specified intervals (currently set at 50 cycles), and I lose my RX capability for a noticable amount of time, say about a half second each time. The VFO switches become more frequent as the bird passes overhead of course, so it's a trade off.\n\nI've been stuck in Bahrain for the better part of a week while waiting for the military hop that goes to Diego Garcia where my ship is located. My rig is on the ship waiting for me, so it'll be a few days?before I can try anything new.\n\nWith luck, my 817 will be shipped to me while I'm at VQ9 and I'll be able to go full duplex with a much faster Doppler interval setting.\n\n73 for now,\n\nJim, ND9M / VQ9JC\nManama, Bahrain\n\n\n\n-----Original Message-----\nFrom: [email protected]\nTo: [email protected]\nSent: Fri, Aug 7, 2009 6:34 am\nSubject: AMSAT-BB Digest, Vol 4, Issue 387\n\n\n\nDate: Thu, 6 Aug 2009 12:21:19 -0700 (PDT)\nFrom: Tim Lilley <[email protected]>\nSubject: [amsat-bb] Re: HRD software question\nTo: [email protected], \"Simon \\(HB9DRV\\)\"\n <[email protected]>\nCc: [email protected]\nMessage-ID: <[email protected]>\nContent-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\n\nSimon,\n?\nI will be thrilled if you are able to get the Doppler-tuning function to work \nwith stability on a netbook with an Intel Atom processor driving an 8.9-inch \nscreen (the one built in to my Acer Aspire One). :)\n?\nTim - N3TL\n\n--- On Thu, 8/6/09, Simon (HB9DRV) <[email protected]> wrote:\n\n\nFrom: Simon (HB9DRV) <[email protected]>\nSubject: [amsat-bb] Re: HRD software question\nTo: [email protected]\nCc: [email protected]\nDate: Thursday, August 6, 2009, 2:47 PM\n\n\nWell,\n\nWhen I get to this stage I will offer to help anyone using teamview - I did \nthis yesterday with a beta-tester in Holland and in just a few minutes found \na serious resource leak.
