The\r\nsignal is very good, peaking S9+ on the last overhead pass, and usually\r\nS7 or so (for comparison, SO-50 is usually S0 and peaks S1 or S2 sometimes).\r\n\r\nHowever, the transponder is such a big mess. Many stations are\r\novermodulating the receiver and are in fact very difficult to copy.\r\nEverybody stepping on each other's QSOs and people calling CQ without\r\nlistening.\r\n\r\nWe should probably remind this:\r\nhttp://www.dk3wn.info/p/?p=64736\r\n\r\nI tried to get on the transponder, but it seems impossible with just 5W\r\nand many people probably using high power. There have also been some\r\nreports that you might need a bit more than 5W to be heard sometimes.\r\n\r\nJust to confirm: is there any offset on the uplink, or just 435.180 +-\r\nthe usual Doppler should work?\r\n\r\nPerhaps, until the novelty passes away I should limit myself to record\r\nand upload telemetry, because it seems quite difficult to get a QSO in\r\nthis conditions.\r\n\r\nMy apologies for this small rant.\r\n\r\n73,\r\n\r\nDani M0HXM/EA4GPZ.\r\n_______________________________________________\r\nSent via [email protected].
