Wyatt, All good points! I just hope I was not one that was causing QRM on SO50.
I just recently have my IC910H working with both rotor control and CAT for the radio for Doppler control. I have noticed that at times the uplink freq can be off. I am working on getting it tweaked in. I have the LVB controller and Yeasu G5500 Rotator and I am finally getting it to work for me...Had com port problems.... 73, Dale- KL7XJ On 9/1/2013 3:09 PM, wyattdirks wrote:
Today and quite a bit lately it seems So50 is beco ming out of control. A few thing to consider when working So50 and the other birds. 1. Don't transmit if can't hear. Really so50 should sound like your local repeater its its not then you need a better rx antenna or maybe a preamp. 2. If you hear someone talking let them finish the qso before you call someone. Also if someone calls somebody don't call the same person before they even have the chance to answer the first guy. 3. Don't call people blindly if your interupting a qso. And don't continue to call the same person over and over if they aren't responding. Let people that are actually hearing the satellite make contacts. 4. Do work full duplex. If you can't hear when your transmitting you're likely cuasing interference. 5. Do enjoy so50 as it is the only fm satellite right now. 73 Wyatt AC0RA _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected]. Opinions expressed are those of the author.
