D STAR net

DSTAR AMSAT users net tonight on REF 60B on W4LET repeater Memphis, TN at 0200 UTC Our new award can be see at http://www.starcommgroup.org/gotgrids.html If all the people that have made post on the BBS in the last 3 days were to get on the SSB birds it would be packed and ops could qualify for the award much faster. We chose SSB birds because there is much less chance of QRM and if you only have FM ,well put a new radio on your Santa list LOL. Later next year we are planning a week event for the 5 in EM55 award Still working on the rules for this weekend satellite event. Thank you Damon WA4HFN em55

Triton-1 update #3 21 November 2013 14:00UTC - Triton1 now in nominal idle mode
by Wouter Jan Ubbels 21 Nov '13

21 Nov '13

Hi all, We have commanded Triton-1 to go to nominal mode, with the radio transmitting idle flags in between beacon transmissions. So the downlink will be on continuously unless it switches to safe mode. Current downlink radio: TRXUV-0 Current downlink frequency: 145.822MHz AX.25 BPSK (so slightly off the nominal frequency of 145.815MHz) Best 73 on behalf of the team, Wouter Jan Ubbels PE4WJ
