I didn't think much about it\nthen, since the radio is at least 15 years old. It worked, even with the\nadditional tuning step, and did a decent job on AO-91 and AO-92 (U/V). It's\none of the later W32A models, with a 7-digit serial number that doesn't\ninclude any capabilities to receive at 800 MHz, and doesn't work SO-50\nfull-duplex.\n\nI was on AO-92 U/V earlier this week using my TH-D72 HT. On one pass Monday\nmorning, I found that I had to tune up to 435.365 MHz near the end of a\npass to get through the satellite. This was the first time I could recall\nhaving to do this with my TH-D72. I asked about this on Twitter and the\nQRZ satellite forum; a few others have noticed the same thing.\n\nI am now finding that when I work AO-92 U/V, I don't stay on 435.340 MHz\nvery long. Maybe a minute or so, about the same amount of time I have been\non 435.365 MHz before LOS. I spend a similar amount of time on the other\n4 tuning steps for AO-92 U/V (435.345 through 435.360 MHz). Once I saw\nthis, it is not a big deal to be prepared to use a 6th tuning step on my\nradios. This is a relatively new thing, as I wasn't having to tune above\n435.360 MHz a year ago - or even 3-4 months ago - when working AO-92 U/V.\n\nFor those using HTs or FM mobile radios to work AO-92 U/V, does anyone else\nfind they are having to transmit above 435.360 MHz late in those passes to\nget through? If you're using something like an IC-910 or IC-9100, where are\nyour radios ending up when working AO-92 U/V? Or an alternative question...\nwhat are you using as the nominal uplink frequency for AO-92 U/V?\n\nThanks, and 73!\n\n\n\n\n\nPatrick WD9EWK/VA7EWK\nhttp://www.wd9ewk.net/\nTwitter: @WD9EWK or http://twitter.com/WD9EWK\n", "attachments": [] }
