In my case, from hearing a dozen+ ops try it on the air. The tuning does not update the frequencies fast enough for use on SSB. In every case I've been involved with, switching to SatPC32 solved the problem. $45 for SatPC32 will make that $2500 radio sing on the transponders.

I'm confused. How do you know it doesn't work if you don't know what the issue is? Just sayin'.

The automatic Doppler control does not work properly. I've never tried it, so I'm not sure what the actual issue is.
SatPC32 is the way to go for computer control on the linear transponders.

I am trying to get a clarification about using HamRadioDeluxe and linear birds. I have heard on several occasions that HRD and its associated satellite tracking module works fine for FM birds but not for linear birds. Can someone please clarify what the actual issue is? I currently have HRD version 6X and I am looking to purchase an IC9100 to mate it with. I have contacted the HRD support folks, but the answer I get is: "not sure, try it". Well, I don't have the IC9100 yet so I can't try it. I have permission from my local AES outlet store to connect up my laptop to one of there IC9100 before I buy it. So, I need to know what the actual problem is with HRD and linear birds so I can try it in person. I hope to get to the bottom of this once and for all.thanks in advance for anyone that wants to jump in on this.
