Hi,
A bit more technical detail on the FC Data Warehouse for those that are
interested.
Its a pair of Java Enterprise Web Applications using the following
technologies:
Spring 3, providing:
RESTful web services
Security
Model-View-Controller
JPA/Hibernate Integration

I have over 100 emails saved on A0 73 and can not find the one I need, so
what is new.
Is it apx plus 10 khz or minus 10 Khz offset on the RIT to zero in on AO 73?
The pass last night around 0940 and could not find the combonation! heard
AC0RA (?) very strong.
Thanks guys for all your
It sounds to me like something is binding. These rotors run at 1 RPM; you
could try running it for 30 seconds and verify that it moves 180 degrees. Then
the same in reverse.
If the motion is correct, then the pot is probably bad. If not, then check for
anything that might keep the whole kit
I wasn't going to touch this as I've made my opinion about P3-E known
before but I can't be silent about some other things. I don't believe
it will ever fly because of the economic realities of today's world but
hey, stranger things have happened. Cubesats seem to be the wave of the
future

The last satellite AMSAT-NA built and flew was an SDR based linear transponder.
Fox-1 and RadFXsat are FM, and the comms capability got us the launches for
free. Fox-2 will be a SDR based transponder. At current count AMSAT orgs have
four operable transponder satellites, another in orbit
Hey Michael,
Insulting the many fellow radio amateurs who enjoy making contacts
outdoors with the stroke of one email is quite an accomplishment.
Momma must be proud.
It is obvious from your lack of knowledge on presently active and
future, planned satellites that you really are just hear to

Clayton,
You're certainly entitled to your opinion as I am to mine. I wasn't
insulting anyone. I expressed an opinion. To me it's idiotic to stand
outside in the cold or the summer heat juggling an antenna and an HT and
it proves nothing good or great about satellites. A well equipped
I'd like to propose some alternatives to the whiney I want a HEO BB emails:
- Write up your vision for how a HEO linear transponder might be
constructed and launched. AMSAT-NA is always looking for articles.
- Share with us your plan for obtaining the funds necessary to launch
a HEO linear
HI Jerry,
First of all, thank you for being civil. Nice change from the last
two responses to my post. Second of all, I apparently stand corrected
on one thing. It was my impression that Fox-2 was also intended to be
another FM sat. If I am wrong in that then I apologize for the previous

That's just a classic opening statement after insulting those that do

One thing I overlooked is good old ITAR. Hell, I'm even afraid to tell
my friends around here what I do for a living. I'm pretty sure that
AO-73 was a collaboration between AMSAT-UK and AMSAT-NL, a luxury that
we don't have. Plus, we are limited to U.S. launches and some of them

BTW,
What always attracted me to sat operation in the first place was not how
simple it was but how complex it was. I originally took it on
because of the challenge involved. A lot of people become bored with
things when they become too easy. I think we sometimes do ourselves a
disservice

Patrick asked.
We're listening... what do you suggest? Sophisticated home stations like
what you described in an earlier post don't work well for those of us at
hamfests or other events, even if we have videos that can show that off.
The sophisticated home station may even scare off some,
Clayton,
That implies action. Whiny type shout loud, do little.
Don't let the idiots get you down.

Michael,
Thanks for the quick and calm response.
Well I don't know but it seems like to me that same
handheld antenna mounted on a tripod and using small
DC motors to track the satellite in both the azimuth
and elevation planes ( something like Mark Spencers
latest creation) along
Probably no one is going to believe me but I actually had an inkling for
an idea similar to Mark's rotator system awhile back. On one of my few
attempts at portable sat ops, back in the days of AO-51 I remember
thinking, this is too much work and thinking it would not be that hard
to automate
Here is my few cents worth:
My perspective is as someone who has always been interested in space,
satellites, etc, as well as the down-and-dirty parts of the techno-marvels.
I'm also someone who played with a Part15 broadcast band transmitter as a
kid, always assumed I would be a ham someday,
Michael,
Thanks for labeling me and tons of other Hams as IDIOTS for participating
in an aspect of Amateur Radio that WE ENJOY! You have a LOT of apologizing
to do!!!
Here's a suggestion for you. Do what you like and let everyone do what they like
without being called viles names in front of
UGHH!!! It was poor choice of words while trying to express my
overwhelming frustration with the seeming status quo of satellite
operation and it's already been apologized for TWICE!! I suppose none
of you have ever chosen words less than wisely when you were frustrated
about something.
Bored? Let's put up a Broadband Hamnet (HSMM-MESH) node! That would
be pretty darned cool.

Michael,
I also miss the HEO days, and have no interest in juggling multiple
radios and antennas in the dark in the rain, simply to scream my
callsign and gridsquare into the pileup and consider it an achievement
if I can copy someone else doing the same. I don't suppose we will ever
see
Tim; I believe there are two pots each for the azimuth and elevation
meter adjustments. One pair are for the internal meters, the other pair
for 0-5V to be used by the TrakBox (or similar) ADC. Make sure you
turned the correct pair. However first I would make sure the internal
7806 voltage
Let your fingers do the walking. Good list etiquette states before asking a
question, that a search of the archives be done.
In this case, I wouldn't touch this one with a large fiberglass pole.
We're not taking about buying a pack of ciggies here.. This stuff costs
millions..
On Sun, Jan 26,
well there is a Falcon heavy demo launch that has almost no payload on
it...Robert WB5MZO and likely S2USN

Hello
Orbitron
Can you make a custom list of sats to track ?
WX and HAM are spread across two groups
Can get them to who up together
