Paul:
I'm going to be trying the BBS, not the digipeater. Please feel free to leave me a message!
That makes things easier - just finished typing up a short message. I should make the 23:00z pass.
I'll be using a laptop with Linux and PB/PG, but when i figure it all out and get some scripts written to automate the lengthy number of commands you have to type in to get it all working, I'm going to be trying it with my PocketCHIP. An extremely portable way of sending and receiving messages via FalconSAT! 73, Paul, N8HM
PocketChip looks interesting - certainly small enough for portable work. Any chance of recording a short video while accessing Falconsat with this setup?

Paul: The TM-D710 can do full duplex with it's internal TNC. Include "FU ON" in the KISS initialization string (which essentially just turns off DCD sense). Sounds similar to how the TS-2000's internal TNC to worked when I used it to work Pacsats years ago. I guess the only obstacle would be tuning steps i.e., does the TM-710 allow small tuning steps in 5 KHz or less on 70cm. I plan to attempt this with my TH-D72 either tonight or later this weekend. The TH-D7A will do full duplex in standalone APRS mode, but not in packet mode. 73,Paul, N8HM If you specify which pass, I'll send you a short APRS message Paul. Tony -K2MO
