I was one ham's first satellite contact two nights ago on FO-29 and I
was almost a ham's first satellite contact this evening on VO-52.
Unfortunately, we couldn't get it done. Plus, I haven't been on the
birds for very long myself.

Can anyone confirm if all ISS transmissions from the Russian Service Module are
now using the new
Kenwood TM-D710 which was sent up to replace the D700 ?
I missed any mention of the new rig being commissioned.

Happened to be up very late, trying to finish some work. My computer
alerted me that SO-50 was rising, and even though it was 4AM, I thought
I'd take a chance that someone might be on the bird.
All efforts to raise the bird failed, even though it was a very high
elevation pass. I realized
Hello,
I know TM-D710 not replace the D700 but it is used for SSTV MAI-75 Experiment.
D710 does not have the microphone but it is connected directly to the SSTV
system.
D700 mic isn't compatible with D710.
D700 is used for contact with school in Russia.
Anyone has any other news?

Hi Les,
You have to configure/check the SubTone.sqf file and then when this is
setup
you can use the T0/T1/T2 option within SatPC32. Default behaviour is T0
no tone
T1 is normal TX behaviour and T2 arm the SO-50 timer.
Here some information from the SatPC32 Manual:
Hello Les,
with the settings that come with the SatPC32 12.8b setup file you can switch
on the 67.0 Hz and the 74.4 Hz sub tones
of the IC-910H. While tracking SO-50 click the SatPC32 T control (in the
uppler left part of the SatPC32 main window) to T1. That will switch on
the 67.0 tone.
Hmmm, my July/August AMSAT Journal has not arrived either (even with
the wrong name). Martha at the AMSAT Office handles
circulation/mailing issues and she is our interface with vendors and
contractors like the print shop.
I've let her know that so far we're missing issues for K9JKM, K7TEJ,

Hello,
is there anybody on the list using an IC-820H with SatPC32, V. 12.8b?
I don't have that radio and can't test it. A user of the IC-820H has an issue
with the program.´The program sets the initial frequencies when he selects a
satellite but doesn't update the frequencies for Doppler
I too did not receive the latest issue of the AMSAT Journal as of yet.
Thought it might just be me, so didn't want to complain. It is something
to look forward to! Great job to Martha, Jo Anne, and everyone involved.
The authors deserve a lot of thanks as well.

It is indeed unfortunate to have the commendable efforts of the
volunteer contributors and editorial staff to the AMSAT Journal be
undone by problems at a PAID contractor.
If you have not received your 2013 September/October AMSAT Journal via
the postal mail please let the AMSAT office know via
September/October Journal is in progress now. It seems we are having
problems with the mailing of the July/August Journal.

Hi All,
One thing that could cause this, is that in the DDE configuration file
uplink frequency correction is disabled. I found out that normal radio
correction then also is disabled. Took me a while to solve this :(
So is this downlink or uplink related?

The launch was smooth and orbital parameters appear to be nominal.
