I am using Com 4 to talk with the FT-847 and I need to use Com 5 to talk with the Yaesu G-232B. How do I set up SatPC32 to use Com 5 ? Thank You Brian, KG8CO

IC 970H
by Glenn T Webb 17 Dec '16

17 Dec '16

Hi AMSAT BB, I have some radios that have been sitting around for several years, and now am going to sell them. I started poking around ebay and other sites, and discovered a note about the IC 970 H on this AMSAT BB. I have one literally in perfect condition (has the 1.2 module), that I would like to sell. I thought maybe someone could give me a thought on the best way to go about this. I am a life member of AMSAT and ARRL, but have never been active on any of their sites. I also have an FT-ONE in perfect condition. Regards, Glenn Webb, W6FP

Pratham CW beacon detected
by skristof＠etczone.com 17 Dec '16

17 Dec '16

The CW beacon from the Pratham satellite was detected here in grid EM79 around 1533 UTC today. I have a turnstile antenna going into an RTL-SDR and I use SDR# software, so I'm no super station. But I did definitely pick up some CW on the SDR# trace at the correct time and frequency. Steve AI9IN

AMSAT Journal archives?
by Mark Johns 17 Dec '16

17 Dec '16

Is the AMSAT Journal archived online somewhere? Even an index of articles? If so, can someone point me to it? I had to pitch all my past issues for a move, and I'm looking for an article from a couple years back on using the cheap, eBay, USB-SDR sticks. -- Mark D.

In Route to EK57 EK58
by David Maciel (XE3DX) 17 Dec '16

17 Dec '16

Satellites to work from EK57 and EK58, (grids difficult to work, to be able to say that only activate 2 or 3 times in 30 years) the only means of contact is twitter @xe3dx when to have signal, to be in jungle zone, not to have telephony and Internet. We heard in the bird.
