Hi Dave, I think you got the answers from the other respondents - but I would like to add a few remarks:
1. The most important in my humble opinion - do not use the CTCSS tone. In my experience it breaks through on the downlink. That does not sound very good. 2. Use normal FM - not FM narrow - but adjust the mike gain so that your downlink audio sounds good. 3. Do not use high power (EIRP). It can give "funny" effects now and then. 4. I use 435.340 MHz for the downlink - but nominal frequency may be OK for you. Enjoy the 2 weeks of SO-67 active over the Americas. It has a LARGE downlink signal :-) 73 OZ1MY/Ib -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] På vegne af Dave Straube Sendt: 28. marts 2011 18:53 Til: [email protected] Emne: [amsat-bb] SO-67 questions Is SO-67 operating on the published frequencies (145.870/435.345) or does one of up/down need an adjustment? What is the meaning of "Use Narrow FM on the uplink" on the AMSAT detail page for SO-67? Not sure if I know of any such configuration on the Yaesu FT-847.
