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 that the bird had "timed out" and needed to
be activated. Not something I was used to thinking about considering how
busy SO-50 usually is. I searched in vain to try to figure out how
SATPC32 was setting the 67.0 Hz PL tone. I figured I could modify that
setting to make it transmit 74.4 Hz instead. But no joy.
I know this can be set in the rig's menu, but I'd rather have a separate
setting in SATPC32 for those rare passes when SO-50 is silent. Can
someone walk me through how to edit the necessary file(s) and set this
up? Thanks in advance from a night owl!
