Re: [amsat-bb] Doppler adjustment proper procedure question
Ted,
Let this 'no code General' help you with satellite info.

You can love the ARRL all you want, it's OK. I personally feel that no info is better than wrong info. And in full disclaimer, I haven't been an AMSAT member or ARRL member for some time because I didn't agree with things, but yet I contribute and try to help those that have operating questions. At least I'm not on an ARRL BB complaining about them and not a member. Gotta go now and try keeping that horse stuff in the stalls.

And yet the AMSAT US web page does NOT have a current list of ALL amateur sats (aka, known as 'updating a web page' to us 'no code Generals'), NOR a current set of numbers for sats that is updated weekly (aka, known as 'updating a web page' to us 'no code Generals').
ARRL has its faults but they are light years ahead of AMSAT US when it comes to protecting your ability to generate RF on the ham bands, satellite or otherwise. I'll give my 40 bucks to ARRL long before I give it to some POB in Maryland.
Keep the stuff in your horse stalls there, Dave. Don't peddle it here

Because I find it extremely laughable that they are supposed to be the Grand Wizard of all Ham Radio and they can't give correct info on satellites, but I'm supposed to rely on them to defend my interests in radio?
I understand satellites are a small niche, but come on...if you don't know what you are talking about just point people to AMSAT. It was noted a couple weeks ago on one of their posts that info was incorrect but apparently they didn't feel the need to correct it.

Just curious....instead of irrational bashing of ARRL (which looks after ALL ham radio interests, including minor niche groups like sat operators) ,
why
can't the answer simply be to adjust either the up or down frequency? The 'computer control' has nothing to do with it, no?

The ARRL can't even get frequencies correct so it's no surprise they are wrong about which frequency to adjust.
If you aren't using computer control to be able to adjust uplink and downlink you adjust the higher of the two frequencies.

) they suggest that for satellite QSOs operators should only adjust
their
receive frequency regardless of whether it is VHF or UHF. I thought standard procedure was to adjust the higher frequency whether it is transmit or receive.
