Grrrr
I seem to fail to understand the APRS mode of GO32:
Kenwood TS2000X
HamRadioDeluxe for auto doppler correction
External TNC (PK96)
hbaud 8600
u aprs via 4xtech
uplink 145.850
in CONV mode: ":AP hello"
... some days ago this worked twice, then nothing got digipeated
uplink 145.930
in CONV mode: ":2 hello"
... never any success
Then: I see JA stations getting stuff like this over it:
JA0CAW]APRS,4XTECH*,qAS,JH4BTI::JA5BLZ :GE ur599 TNXp
whereas I would have expected somethin like "AP JA5BLZ ...."
(AP in front)
This is the only source of documentation I have:
http://web.usna.navy.mil/~bruninga/GO32-ops.html
Which states:
145.85 MHz All APRS messaging (or fixed station non-Mic-E positions). . Only
TOCALLs that begin with "APxxxx".
145.93 MHz All APRS Mic-E positions and status(D7, D700 and D710s with comment
set to "Committed, Special or PRIORITY"...
The reason for these uplink distinctions is due to GO-32 hardware that will
only digipeat a packet on 145.85 that has
a TOCALL beginning with "A". (All APRS fixed station packets and all APRS
messages including D7 and D700's) . The
145.93 channel will only accept packets that begin with a digit between
1,2,3,4,5,6,7. . But fortunately the D7 and
D700's do this naturally as long as the position comment is set to "committed,
SPecial or PRIORITY"...
Q1: do the TOCALLs need APxxx or Axxx on 850 ? (in CONV mode type :APxxx ?)
Q2: should here ":2xxx" work ?
Thanks !

Hi George, ON4AMV
It is possible to use commercially available absolute encoders with
linear analog output from 0 to 5 volt or from 0 to 10 volt for a single
revolution of 360?
The above absolute encoders are more accurate than any conventional
linear 360? potentiometer and they don't use moving contacts like a
wiper built into a wirewound potentiometer.
They are made by Tekel, Eltra, Lika Electronic and many others manufacturers
for robotics and industrial application but they are very expensive.
In addition the backlash into the gears of a G5400 rotator do not justify
such high accuracy and a good wirewound linear 500 ohm potentiometer
represents the best technical and economical solution.
By the way when a very high repeatedly position accuracy is requested
as for large EME dishes then absolute encoders or resolvers with the
associated syncro to digital converters are necessary.

Hi Mike,
yes also for me it wasn't possible,up to now,
to work DO-64 satellite with quite good signal.
This is not "easy satellite"
Only some time (random)I received quite good signal
from transponder, often I received only a very weak
signal like you.
All this with long beam 22 elements cross yagi for 2 meters,
And 38 elements cross yagi for 70 cm. both rhcp-lhcp
Switch polarization.

Hello Mineo,
I checked when you sent your last notice about the digipeater.
The telemetry says that the digipeater is on. PACB is the callsign that has
worked in the past. You might try PACSAT or PECHO.

Hi Domenico & George, Hi all,
another cheap solution is the AS 5040, however the SSOP-16 package of this
IC is a problem
for homebrewers, as the chip is very tiny and always needs a good PCB with
high accuracy
between the tracks. In addition is necessary to make some mechanical
construction in order
to support the moving-magnet and the circuit, in place of the
old-conventional
pot.
This IC working with digital -or- analogue output if you want a standalone
device (0-5Volts for 0-360 degrees or by using a divider : 0-3.6 Volts
for a direct digital readout).
A few nice examples you can find here:
http://www.electric-web.org/rotary_encoder.htm
http://vk5dj.mountgambier.org/Beam/AS5040/AS5040-45.html
However I completely agree with Domenico, the classical wire pot is the
best techical and economical solution for Satellites. All the rest are much
more complicated, and they need dozen-hours of experimentation.
OK, even if the pot needs replacement from time to time, for me
remains that a simple, easy and comfortable solution for our applications.
And keep in mind, the POT is a "passive" component in contrast with any
IC into the rotor, which is an active circuit into a non-friendly
environment,
like
that inside of metal case of rotor, where extreme temperature take place
between -35 on N.Europe, Canada etc and upto 80-90 Celsius on South
areas !.
No very comfortable environment's condition for an IC - even if has a low
power
consumption.

What I use is, 145.85 for the uplink (only use 145.93 with mice)
u aprs via 4xtech
hbaud 9600 (I guess your 8600 was a typo)
Then you should just be able to send anything like normal
I do alot of messages like:
:CQ :Hello on go32
I'm using my d700 in packet mode with aprs software
Also, can you hear go-32 at all? it transmits about every other second
with it's bbs stuff, so it should be a constant stream of stuff even
if no one is transmitting to it. Pretty much like the ao-51 downlink
on 9600baud.

Hi Guys,
I am new to the group and getting interested in Sat comms. I am using Ham
radio Deluxe satellite tracking system which works fine and communicates
with the WISP program. I have the following problem I cannot get any output
from WISP to the LPT port. I have tried a number of things but it does not
work. My question is, has anyone got the IF-100 working with Microsoft XP
and WISP? I just hope someone is out there who can help.
Thanks from Paul OE8PCK.

Like the other Houston area AMSAT folks I made it through Hurricane
Ike OK. I still do not have electricity, cell phone coverage, or
internet coverage (I am sending this from work). Water pressure is
low but toilets still flush. Minor damage to my house - fences blown
down and skylight damaged with minor water leaking into house.
Amateur radio antennas appear to have made it through the storm but I
have not gone up on roof for detailed inspection.
I have been working the FM birds usingf my W32A and AL800 making about
50 ctx so far post-hurricane. Have not heard AO-27 the last two days.
SO-50 downlink was very weak on Wedneday (Sept 18).
Wife came down with stomach pains on Tuesday we thought were from food
poisoning but turned out be appendicitis. Appendicectomy performed
Wednesday evening and wife is in hospital recovering.
Just a few bumps in the road of life.

Just type yum install picocom or yum install minicom at the terminal

Dear AMSAT BB Reader,
AMSAT-Italia with AMSAT-UK have the great pleasure to announce you our

Brings up the question, what is an OLPC? I do a google search and end up
with "One Laptop Per Child". I don't think that is the proper context.
