Mike and Dimitry your two posts are exactly what I was looking for 1) The Amsat-UK.org website that has most SQF files 2) SatPC32 users W9KE doppler.sqf editor. These really help a new guy. The SatPC32 manual is ok but seeing the table and knowing what they are helps to understand the program.TNX AGN 73 Mike K4MIA

AO-92 L Band
by Mike Seguin 05 Feb '18

05 Feb '18

I just had a very noisy 6 degree max pass here in VT. There was nobody in the footprint on L Band so I tested nominal frequency for the uplink. This time the nominal was ~ 8.5 kHz high. 1267.3585 More testing is needed, especially with lower power to fine tune. Mike -- 73, Mike, N1JEZ "A closed mouth gathers no feet"

Tracker software for iOS
by Devin L. Ganger 05 Feb '18

Greetings, programs! A little while back there was a good thread about tracker software recommendations for Android. I have just moved to iOS from Windows phones, and was wondering what other iPhone owners are using for sat and ham radio software on iOS devices? Thanks in advance, Get Outlook for iOS<https://aka.ms/o0ukef>

SatPc32 SQF file
by Mike Hoblinski 05 Feb '18

05 Feb '18

On the Amsat-UK.org website under satellites they have a SQF file that you can download or do a cut and paste. But unfortunately it too needs to be updated with AO-91 and AO-92. I do like they way they have the option to download their news letter for members. Its similar to the Amsat-NA journal but is only published four times a year. Its nice to save the downloads and build a library. I like having it on the e-reader and be able to take several with me to read on the bus and also have the hyper links in the articles. It would be nice if SatPC32 was a little more automated and customizable with some of the files and keps updates. Mike Hoblinski N6IMF
