[amsat-bb] Re: SatPC32 not switching modes on 910H

      Hi Jeff;
the REV/NOR parameter in Doppler.SQF does not switch the radio's tracking 
mode (Revers/Normal),
but the tracking direction of SatPC32. The setting is important only  is 
with SSB sats. If you tune the VFO knob, for example,  10 KHz up the program 
will tune the TX frequency also 10 KHz up if the parameter is NOR and 10 KHz 
down, if the parameter is REV. With FM sats the setting is meaningless 
because these sats work on fix channels. The  frequency changes by the 
automatic Doppler correction change always in the opposite direction, 
regardless of the setting in Doppler.SQF.

SatPC32 is not automatically switching from NOR to REV when required. I 
have
verified that the Doppler.sqf file is configured correctly. I have to
manually switch the satellite mode.
I am using the ICOM CT-17 interface.
Thanks,

Subject: [amsat-bb] SO-67 over Europe thanks for test
Hi all,
SO-67 worked great over Europe this morning.
The downlink signal is the largest I have seen for years :-)
I used FMN with mike gain turned down. That is far the best way
to work the uplink.
Some stations with a too wide deviation even made the downlink
change amplitude - or cut it off. I used normal FM on the receive
side.
Worked G3VZV and IZ1ERR. Lots of other stations on.
Thanks for a new satellite for us to use.
