[amsat-bb] Mode B operating question...

I first got on the sats back on AO-13. Seem to me back then when we operated linear satellites (FO-29, RS’s etc) we found ourselves on the receive passband and as the doppler changed we adjusted our transmit freq to make sure we stayed on the receive frequency.

Of course things have changed since then and many use some sort of satellite tracking software to control the doppler adjustments on the radio. But when you are operating portable what is the proper procedure on the linear sats?

Thanks,
