Hi Bill, I have a VU5K, and tried that. Everything looked rock steady using the parameters you specified. 73s, Alan WA4SCA -Original Message- From: amsat-bb-boun...@amsat.org [mailto:amsat-bb-boun...@amsat.org] On Behalf Of Bill Bordy, NJ1H Sent: Sunday, September 29, 2013 3:28

Nick, According to Flex, the data through VAC has the standard voice pre/post emphasis filtering and limiting, which should make 9600 baud problematic. They do have a request in for a way to bypass all that. The equivalent of the direct connections in conventional rigs. This does have

Alan, Dudley el al Here is what I am experiencing using ver 2.22 1. When I transmit on VFO B I get motor boating in the open receiver. The fix is to always put the uplink invfo b. The normal satpc32 in vu mode loads the transmit in vfo b. There is a special version of

Nick, Actually, it works pretty well with the latest version. Set up SATPC32 as for a TS-2000. It is neat to see a signal in the transponder, drag it to the passband, and you are ready to go. A few comments. The Satellite Mode in the SATPC32 setup does nothing, either way, due to the way

I have been following this for a couple of years, either putting off projects it will make obsolete, or acquiring goodies such as a GPS disciplined 10 MHz oscillator which will make frequency drift and calibration errors a thing of the past. There was a false start on the transverters, and some
