Thanks Hello, I mentioned last Thursday in the meeting that I had found an EM simulator for PCBs called Sonnet. You can find a download for the "lite" version here <https://www.sonnetsoftware.com/products/lite/> . The company will ask you some questions before downloading, and may contact you over email to see if you're interested in buying the full version. The full version allows you to add components and simulate larger circuits, but most of the things you'll want to test are usable through the lite version. It's super intuitive to use, and you can find a tutorial here <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCxNqOyejVY> . Thanks, Cameron Castillo ------------------------------------------------- Cameron Castillo KJ7ILB P: (503) 752-8877 --------------------------------------------------

Meeting tonight
by Blumenthal, Alex 31 Oct '24

31 Oct '24

Hi all, I likely won't be able to make it to tonight's meeting, so I just wanted to give a brief update through email. I started working on a document named "PACSAT Launchpad Instructions" with a step-by-step process for getting the board set up for bench testing. I should have the first version ready for upload to the GitHub by the end of next week. 1. Should I upload the file as a text document, Word, PDF, etc? 2. Is there a specific AMSAT format that we should be using? We currently have our radio base stations set up for operations testing for the ROADS mission, but we have a few handhelds available for PACSAT testing. 1. Are there any known issues with using the TH-D72 for the ground station? Aside from connecting the mini USB cable to the computer, is there any further setup required before starting the PACSAT ground station software? Sincerely, Alex
