Hi all-
ARRL Field Day rules lump all satellites together as a single band: "Satellite."
While you are limited to one QSO on the FM satellites, there is no limit to the number of QSOs you can make on transponder sats.

Jeff and Paul,
The way I read ARRL FD rule 7.3.7, each satellite is a separate "band," though you can make only one QSO on each FM satellite (unlimited on non-FM sats). Only one 100-point bonus, though.
Look for me from WE7GV on FO-29 and possibly AO-7.

Between satellite contacts, Don?t forget APRS at Field day too. Have fun!
Independent of scoring (APRS gets no respect at FD anyway)? it is still a good time to play APRS radio and make contacts. Who cares about points when there are so many people on the air!
Remember CQSRVR lets you call CQ everywhere in the world from your APRS radio out in the field. Just send a message to CQSRVR with the first two words as CQ FD followed by your info.
Everyone else in the world who has also sent such a message is automatically logged into the CQSRVR and will get a copy. Once you have sent yours, then you too will get a copy of all future such messages from everyone else.
CQSRVR just makes the global CQ to everyone else. To make contacts, then you need to initiate a 1-on-1 message to any other callsign you see to make the contact!
See details: http://aprs.org/cqsrvr.html
You have that expensive APRS radio, USE IT!

It is not yet certain, because we need the authorization of the owner of the Farm, which we will only know when we get there. But at least one of these GRIDs is certain of the activation.
We probably will not have phone coverage, and we'll be "in the dark" ...
We will try to activate the SO-50 , FO-29, AO-7, AO-85 ...
Look for PT2AP-9, on APRS tracker, on the days of activation ...

I have a fully registered version, but I am still limited to 12 satellites?
When I click on the "V" on the left and make it "V+" so that I can correct the uplink and downlink frequencies, I try to change the frequency using the up and down arrows under the 20, 100, 500, 1k and 5k labels.? But it only changes the downlink.? Why?
Once I can hear my downlink and I toggle the "V" back to "V-" then how do I save the corrected frequencies to Doppler.SQF
What if I want to use SatPC32 to tune around the passband and look for other stations?? What are the steps for that?
I want the Countdown window to attach to the right.? It does that on one computer, but attaches to the left on another.
I am using my FT817, and have the CAT working.? When listening to FO-29, I try to tune the VFO but it keeps putting me back on the frequency shown in SatPC32.
Another weird behavior...in CAT control mode, it keeps jumping between uplink and downlink frequencies.? How do I stop this?? Is that the special FT817 configuration I need to use?

?Hi Sean!
Thanks for chiming in and confirming the interpretation of satellite contacts are lumped together as a single band under the ARRL Field Day rules. This is how I've treated them all along. Makes for some extra work in submitting my reports to ARRL and AMSAT, but it isn't impossible.
If other stations call me on an FM satellite after I've made my points-earning QSO, I will work those other stations. I won't score the extra QSOs, but I work those calling me since I could be their first satellite QSO for the 100-point bonus. When I submit my Field Day reports to ARRL and AMSAT, I specifically exclude these additional QSOs from my scores. In over a decade working satellites during Field Day, this hasn't been an issue for either competition. Same thing when I work stations on more than one satellite for the ARRL Field Day scoring - log the QSOs, but they don't go into the score.
Even up at 7000-7500' around Flagstaff AZ, temperatures are probably going to be north of 90F tomorrow. I'll be somewhere up there, hoping to find a good spot with some shade, an opening in the forest for working satellites, and some luck to make a few satellite QSOs (plus some propagation on HF and 6m, too). I might even go back to somewhere on the south rim of the Grand Canyon, if all else fails...

I did a similar thing some weeks ago. Yo can get a copy from the SatPC backup directory and replace the bad one. You may have to add or edit the new stuff you want, but the file will be file and readable by SatPC. For example, my system Windows 10 has it here: C:\Users\GARFLD\AppData\Roaming\SatPC32_DataBackup\SatPC32

They are fine, though confusing about the meaning of contacting "different satellites." Does that mean that "satellite" is a band and working a station on more than one satellite would be a dupe? I'm not sure. AMSAT rules allow you to work the same station on multiple satellites.
