Thanks for checking, Hasan. As Mark said, COR is a fallback mode designed into the Fox satellites for when the IHU is not operating for whatever reason. There have been times when the IHU decided to reset, and a QSO continued on across the reset unhindered (I've heard the audio recording--it was pretty cool!)

Thanks Mark, I should have mentioned voice ops were perfect. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't using the bird when I should not have been. 73, N0AN Hasan

Hi Hasan,
The bird is a bit unpredictable these days, due to lack of voltage from battery condition. It very well may from time to time be operational in what we call COR, or carrier operated repeater. In this mode there is no data under voice (DUV). So just enjoy the voice ops! It’ll fix itself or we’ll give it a nudge (command it) eventually.
