Have the last days qso s made via AO-73 sat the rx goes from s 9 to 0 sometimes with a lot of QRM. I think the sat turned around its axis faster than a few months ago. Many stations have problems with QSO S via this sat. 73 PE1NIL

AO-85

I see that AO-85 has been back in safe mode for a few days, after a day with the transponder on. Is it going to be left in safe mode or will the transponder be turned back on again.? Regards Ross ZL1WN

Dobbler file

I am new to sat work. I have been working on setting up my station for sat work. However I have been having issues with the tracking software, that being that it does not seem to have all of the birds loaded that are current and I don't have a list of the active birds. I have tried to edit the file and find that is not working well either. I am just wondering if there is a good source to find a current file so that I can add it or copy and paste what is needed for the current information. The program is Satpc32 registered, so once in it should be good to go. LOL I am trying to get things worked out so that I may have the correct info for tuning my radio and let the software work with the radio to help tune the rig for doppler effect some, however if I don't have the frequency and modes correct for them in the file it makes all this work useless. Just trying to get some help somewhere so that I may try to work some of you folks here on list. I am one of those areas that there are not many to work either. Location is: Maine Grid is: FN53 Any good help would be useful. Thank you in advance. Jim N1IPA
