Hi Steve,

...

AO-51,435300,145880,USB,FM,Nor,0,0,Voice V/U

Looks like you have your uplink/downlink modes reversed SO-50,436795,145850,FM,FM,NOR,0,0

Satellite Name - Name matching the name in the Keplerian Elements file Downlink Frequency - True frequency in KHz on which the satellite is transmitting Uplink Frequency - True frequency in KHz on which the satellite is receiving Downlink Mode - emission used for this satellite on this downlink frequency Uplink Mode - emission used for this satellite on this uplink frequency Tracking Mode - whether the uplink and downlink frequencies track in normal or reverse mode Downlink Offset - downlink offset in KHz (see Section 5 below) Uplink Offset - uplink offset in KHz (see Section 5 below)

While the have the correct uplink/downlink frequencies listed, each radio is a little different and using SatPC32 to control your radio Doppler will necessite tweaking these numbers slightly.

Be sure and read the section in the SatPC32 Manual & FAQs under CAT on adjusting your offset. The FM downlink is easy to adjust by looking at your Discriminator meter reading on your receiver (if you have this feature). The uplink calibration can be set in steps of 10, 100 or 1000 Hz with the corresponding up/down controls in the "CAT" menu. The 10-Hz steps can also be set with the "normal" +/- keys, the 100-Hz steps with the +/- keys of the numeric block of the keyboard.

Once set and stored you should be able to click on this mode under CAT and you will always be good to go.

Hope you enjoy this mode.

I luckily have the day off of work tomorrow, and I will actively be trying this mode. AO-51 V/U SSB/FM Mode

I have altered the Doppler.sqf file in sat PC32. I HOPE that this following Line is the correct paramaters ( we will see )

AO-51,435300,145880,USB,FM,Nor,0,0,Voice V/U

Does any one see anything wrong with that? If so please let me know!

See you on the new mode in a few hours!
