Re: [amsat-bb] ISS APRS? (Easy switching)
Yes, it is easy to maintain multiple profiles in the D710. One for Falconsat and one for ISS/NO84, etc
Just program one PM memory for normal operation Then one for Falconsat at 9600 using the path of PFS3-1, and then another one for ISS/APRS/NO84 using the path VIA ARISS
Then operations of any are only one PM push button away.
But you must change the menu item AUTO-PM-STORE to OFF, or otherwise the PM will NOT remember the basic settings but will auto-save-anything you do and so you never know for sure what is in there. I always thoguth it strange that the default for AUTO-PM-SAVE defaults to ON which defeats the whole purpose (in my opinion) of having PM memories in the first plave.

Trying to become active on APRS/packet on the satellites using my Kenwood TM-D710. A couple of questions:
1.) Anyone know why the ISS digipeater hasn’t been active for the past several days?
2.) Is there any easy way to switch the path and other settings between FalconSat3 and ISS/NO-84? I’d love to work both, but don’t do a lot of APRS operating so switching between them isn’t easy for me.
Anyone else using the TM-D710 who could share some tips on best operating practices?
