I was hoping someone with a better memory, or Erich would chime in on this but here goes. I would first add this line to the Doppler.SQF file...
BY70-1,436200,145920,FM,FM,Nor,0,0,Voice V/U
Then add this line to the subTone.SQF file...
BY70-1,67.0,$3F,1 (for an Icom, I'm not sure of other rigs, but you can watch your rigs display to see if the tone is toggled on/off) RTFM
Then I download the keps from nasa.all (I was fudging them in for a day) and you should be good to go when you add BY70-1

Mark,
I also get the “E/A-Fehler 105.” error message when I add BY70-1 to a satellite group in SatPC32. Other people don’t have the problem.
The error message (in German) means I/O Error 105 in the Delphi programming environment, which I believe is an error writing to a file.
What I can’t yet answer is how to fix the problem. We may have a file permissions problem.
Anybody have a solution or know where to look?

When I put keps for BY70-1 into SatPC32 (either yesterday's keps or today's), it pops up a box that says, "E/A - Fehler 105." SatPC32 freezes up.
Does anyone know what this error code means? Anyone else getting it?

18:20 pass not as strong as prior passes. Only got a few moments of full-quieting audio. Contacts with W5ACM and KC7M. As before, the second half of the pass was much better (nothing heard at all until just before indicated TCA), so perhaps the bird is late compared to the Keps. Worked it almost into the ground before LOS. I'm using 2016-083C, updated from Celestrak right before the pass. Playing with polarization seemed to help, but I'm assuming the bird's antennas are linear, right? Possibly my relays are getting dirty.
One question, for scale... We know that the satellite will not last "long", given it's crippled orbit. How long? Days? Weeks? Months?

If you are still using yesterday's TLE set, then you will indeed find that BY70-1 is now about half a minute earlier. The problem is that the TLEs for this satellite are not stable yet in the first days after the launch. The right value for e.g. the decay rate has not yet been established. So for the time being you need to make sure you use the most recent TLE set that is available.
By the way, the two SuperView satellites are now using their own propulsion system to increase their altitude, preventing an early decay. As BY70-1 does not have any propulsion, it is stuck in its low orbit.

Hi We had a low pass over here minutes ago and i felt the keps BY70-1 are wrong . I start to hear 25 seconds before . Does anyone feels the same ? 73 _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected].
