Hi Drew,
I worked Ao-51 this morning, and I had a contact with EI8JB portable
during 07,33 utc orbit.
For me nothing changed, I received from Ao-51 the same strong signal
as usual.

On the 2242UTC pass of AO-51 tonight, we will try for the first time to
reverse the magnet and flip the orientation of the satellite. While we
do this, the 435.300 transmitter will be shut off for about 10 minutes.
If the reversal is successful, we should see some changes in

Drew, the only difference I detected in the 0029 utc pass over Western US was
the polarity changes. Almost thought
I was on SO-50 instead of AO-51. Had to keep the hand on the reversal switch.
Heard acouple of other comments about it too during the pass. Signal strength

I have to agree with John...significant increase in the polarity switching
noticed both on the US west coast pass last night (02-Dec-09 0158) and this
morning (03-Dec-09 1417). This morning's pass required a lot of
switching...some of it back-to-back (10 seconds between switching). Also,

To all AMSAT-Florida net participants:
Recently, the KG4YZY repeater that provided the Echolink connection into
the wide area NI4CE repeater system was permanently disconnected from
the network, and temporarily removed from service. As the AMSAT-Florida
net relied on that Echolink connection
With two usable passes over ZL last night the most notable feature was the
frequent polarity shifts. Certainly good strong signals but difficult to
tell how it compares to previous signal levels.

Hi All,
Has anyone used SatPC32 with a netbook computer? I'd appreciate your comments.
Which netbooks do best? What ports do netbooks come with?
I just tried SatPC32 on AO-7 with an old Dell Inspiron 3800. It works well
controlling 2 FT-817s in the shack. When outside, using a charged
According to my prelaunch Echo manual, the S/C has black and silver kapton
tape along the edges to impart spin. The documentation mentions that the
earlier microsats used painted antenna elements to achieve the same result.
Given enough time, the equilibrium rotation rate will be the result of a

Anthony,
I read the responses from K6CDW and KB1PVH, and I agree with them. I also
have used my Acer Aspire One to Doppler-tune two Yaesu rigs (either one
FT-857 and one FT-817 or two 817s) using SatPC 32, and it works perfectly
for me. You may be aware that there are offshore sellers on eBay who
