Hello folks,
I would like to request copies of any telemetry recordings of Sputnik 12/13,
I know it was killed by radiation while flying over the South Atlantic
Anomaly during a Solar storm. I am seeking any telemetry recordings of this
spacecrafts CW signal on HF 29 MHz. When the spacecraft was alive, I wrote a
telemetry decoder for Russian Sputniks. I only managed to make 2 small
datasets using the CWget and my RSdashboard before it went and got itself
cooked. This is a request for historical reasons, the data and software I
want to put online at QSL.net.
Thanks all, Kevin, VK3UKF.

Hi,
I am fiddling with a new sound card, and am wondering if there is a bit of
_Windows_ software which will read the output of a standard audio device,
and present the data directly? You can almost do this by looking at an FFT
display, and looking for clipping, but I was looking for a more direct, and
quantifiable reading. Programs using AE4JY's DLL core will tell you when
you are overdriving it, but that is pass/fail.
73s,

Mike,
SatPC32 from AMSAT will run fine with Vista. There are some minor issues but
they are covered in a compatibility statement. I am running it on a new Dell
Notebook under Vista Home Premium Edition.

Nothing has changed really. PCSAT (W3ADO-1) is operational on
all passes when it is in the mid-day sun. That means if there
are any passes within a few hours of your local noon, then it is
probably useable for a few packets. You can see its downlink on
the http://pcsat.aprs.org web page at any time.
Checking there, I see many many users and packets over the last
24 hours...
Enjoy!. Also ANDE-1 is on the same frequency and should also be
available on 145.825 MHz, though weaker.

For a lot of my satellite time I have used NOVA for predicting sat passes on
a WinXP laptop in my vehicle. I have been required by work to go to a
Windows Vista computer and have been unable to get Vista and Nova to work
together.
What are people running on Windows Vista for prediction without an internet
connection (so I can not use AMSAT's predict website).

I posted the new schedule for August late last night. This time around we
had _seven_ specific requests and filled all of them. There are several grid
expeditions and cruises that will be on AO-51 in August, both in North
America and Europe, that requested "normal" V/U repeater mode. We've also
scheduled some L/U and L/S time for the adventurous. Eclipses are getting
shorter this month, so expect to see the downlink power move up in response.
Please send your requests for September to ao51-modes(a)amsat.org for
consideration.
Thanks and 73,

To the group,
For those complaining of little satellite activity.
On Monday the 30-07-07 ... on AO-7 there were 12 different prefixes logged
including several
Stateside - Europe contacts.
The prefixes were ... (in random order) ...
K9, G1, DM, F3, EA, LA, UA0, RA3, GJ, I6, HA, OH.
The Stateside stations were ...
K3SZH, N5AFV, K9QHO, K9CIS, K9HF, W7AIT, WA6KYR.
Now I know who Jimmie Hendrix was referring to ... Hey Joe ... (K3SZH).

Hi All,
I'm being "innundated" ... (well, 2 actually) ... with corrections
to my mis-spelt 'Jimmie' (as in Jimi Hendrix) in regard to my earlier AO-7
post.
I humbly apologise for my error and have reprogrammed my single remaining
active braincell with the correct spelling.
I've also been asked twice in the last 20 minutes for the mode of AO-7 at
the time. It was mode-B ... which is clearly shown for every QSO on the AO-7
Resource Page at ...
