Hi Scott,
Quick question... AISAT-1 is which catalog number? I recall some discussion a while back, and I've got #44104 configured in Gpredict. But I also see AISAT (40054), AISSAT 1 (36797), AISSAT 2 (40075), and a few others with similar names.
Which is AISAT-1 (one "S", with the dash)?
Thanks,
Greg KO6TH

Hey Steve!
I've found that AISAT-1 works better with FM-Narrow. It's my understanding that the other APRS sats have always worked fine with regular FM... that's what I use for all but AISAT-1.
Unfortunately, for quite a while now the only active 2m APRS satellite has been AISAT-1. However, it has not been heard since 3-Mar. Certainly hope that's temporary!
Of course we all look forward to the day that the ISS digipeater is back online, too.

When aiming at the APRS satellites (ISS, AISat, any others?) should I use Wide or Narrow FM? I vaguely recall reading that narrow is good, but I can't find the reference. Your assistance is appreciated! Steve AI9IN
