for the next two days Benigno XE2YBG will be in EL12, for all stations
contacted there will be a special QSL and no SASE is needed...

This gentleman wrote me a couple weeks ago, thanking me for my meager
"How to Work Sats..." tutorial he found on the 'Net.
Fellow AMSATers, I have created a monster. Here's his latest email
message...
================================================
Hey Clint,
I crunched some numbers here just now based on the seven contacts I
made yesterday running 50 milliwatts out (!) :
I worked all three birds with crossband FM mode (AO-27, AO-51 and SO-50)
During those seven contacts, my signal travelled an average of 620.7
miles to get to the satellites.
My longest trip was to SO-50 in a contact with KD8ILL - my .05-watt
signal travelled 830.5 miles to the bird.
Finally ... on a 25-degree-angle pass of AO-51 an hour ago as I type
this, N7JK in Phoenix became my 100th contact on the birds - in less
than 13 full days.
Yeah ... I'm soooo hooked!
73,
[Name deleted to protect the innocent]
================================================
YES - I got him to join AMSAT-NA. And he is anxiously awaiting
Martha's initial mailing.
But what am I to do? I mean, all this exhibited unbridled enthusiasm
and energy...
(grin)
And so it goes...Ain't this a magnificent hobby?

I just watched it too, and I loved it. Amazing how the simple sound of a
400bps BPSK beacon brings a smile.
But how the demo happened at all is a miracle.
I arrived at Friedrichschafen at 10pm at night on the Thurday, the day
before the demo. Due to unexpected work commitments I had to return to
Jersey (Channel Islands) by Friday afternoon, so I had to get the first
flight back out again at 6am, only eight hours later.
OK, so plenty of time to hand over everything. On the flight from Frankfurt,
I was with the CEOs of Yaesu, Icom, Kenwood. At the baggage reclaim, they
all got their bags. My bag, checked in at Frankfurt, didn't make it. With
the SDX inside. With no more flights that day, there was no way the SDX was
going to arrive by the time I had to leave.
So I left directions for Lufthansa to send the bag due on the 9am flight
from FRA the next day to go direct to the show. And I gave Freddie ON6UG and
Hartmut DL1YDD a twenty minute 'back of the envelope' guide to set it up.
For the man on the street, no way. But I figured these guys are Radio Hams,
right? They can do anything, right?
Well, I guess Radio Hams really can do anything. No calls, no emails, no
text messages. How I wish all my work customers were like that.

In the setup box for the "Server W0LMD" can someone tell me what should be
checked in the "Azimuth rotor turns in" box?? The two choices are South and
North. I am using the Yaesu G-5400 with a north center.
I can't find anything about the setting in the SatPC32 manual nor the setup
section for the W0LMD control box.
Thanks

Some time ago someone posted some instruction and graphics showing
how use a 2M/70cM Diplexer to reduce intermod. I thought it was on
www.amsat.org but I can't find it again. I would like to use it for a
presentation.
I would appreciate any help getting it.

Hello Dick,
the north centered G-5400 has its turning point (= rotor end points) in the
South. Therefor check South. With the tracker itself the setting must be
done with dip switch #4, see tracker manual.
