Hi, As you may know the digipeater on IO-117 "Greencube" switched to 2400 baud a few days ago.It seems that Icom IC-9700 radios do not have sufficient transmit bandwidth to make this work. It had been announced that this switch from 1200 to 2400 was to be for 72 hours.We are now at 96 hours and counting. I have not had any luck finding contact information for the satellite operators. On the website https://www.s5lab.space/index.php/digipeater-greencube/%C2%A0%C2%A0 it is shown that AMSAT Italia helped them develop the project. Maybe somebody has a contact at AMSAT Italia that can contact University of Rome to get the status and request return to 1200 baud. thanks very much.
