While reinsatlling and upgrading PCSAT 32 I ran across a page that gave some
detailed instructions and cautions for using the USB port on the 9100 with
PCSAT32. I made a mental note to make a copy of it, my mental note book is
defective anyone know what article I'm talking about and where it is?

Here are the totals of the grids that I activated on 2/22/2016 and
2/23/2016...
DM28 - 36 unique calls
DM29 - 14 unique calls (Great Basin National Park)
DM39 - 9 unique calls
Credit for the national park activation is via LOTW only. I have uploaded
all QSOs to LOTW and in the next few days I will be sending all my contacts
QSL card unique to the grid that I worked them from. Return QSL is not
necessary.
Thank you all for the fun, and to Frank K4FEG for your help through texting
and on the phone.

You should have no problem;
if your USB (Silabs) driver was installed previously and the radio was
working via USB;
if you have the correct settings for USB (Com port), baud rate and CI-V
address.
Nothing changes with a SatPC32 if you saved the previous installation files
and use them as part of the SatPC32 "upgrade" installation:

hope this helps,
Stefan

Tom,
there are also some hints regaring the IC-9100 in the SatPC32 FAQs file:
http://www.dk1tb.de/FAQ_e.htm#IC9100Cat
The FAQs file can also be opened from the SatPC32 menu "?".

Hi!
Last weekend's Yuma Hamfest in southwestern Arizona was a fun event to be a
part of. For the 8th straight year, AMSAT had a booth at the hamfest. This
year, as in 2012 previously, the Yuma Hamfest also served as the ARRL
Southwestern Division Convention. This brought more people out to Yuma,
along with the great weather and the lower fuel prices in most of the
southwestern USA outside of California certainly didn't hurt.
The hamfest ran across two days - Friday (19 February) afternoon, and all
day Saturday (20 February). The hamfest site, the Yuma County Fairgrounds,
turns into a mix of hamfest, convention, and campground. Campers are able
to park on the fairgrounds for the weekend, meaning there's no travel from
camp site to hamfest. For the others attending the hamfest, there are many
motels and hotels around Yuma, or other campgrounds in the area - plus the
desert, a favorite of many spending the winter in this area. The
fairgrounds sits across the street from Yuma International Airport and
Marine Corps Air Station Yuma. With the military air operations, it was
like having a small air show alongside the hamfest with the different types
of military aircraft in the sky.
AMSAT had its booth in a section with other groups like ARRL and the Civil
Air Patrol. Lots of traffic went past the booth over the two days. I set up
tablets running videos showing demonstrations of working satellites,
tracking software (SatPC32), and SDR (HDSDR, connected to either an SDRplay
receiver or a HackRF Blue software-defined transceiver). Demonstrations
were done outside the hall, near a parking lot, on 3 different satellites
(AO-85, FO-29, SO-50) using different radio configurations:
AO-85- TX: IC-2730A, RX: SDRplay with HDSDR on 8-inch Windows 10 tablet
FO-29- TX/RX: FT-817ND (half-duplex)
SO-50- TX/RX: TH-D72A (also half-duplex)
All of my radio configurations used an Elk Antennas handheld 2m/70cm log
periodic. For the AO-85 configuration, the antenna was connected through an
MFJ diplexer to serve both the IC-2730A and SDRplay.
With the hamfest starting at midday (1900 UTC) Friday, and AO-85's pass
times not lining up better with the hamfest, Saturday morning was the only
chance I had for an AO-85 demonstration during the hamfest. For the other
two satellites, I was on at least once a day on each satellite. One of the
FO-29 passes on Saturday afternoon was recorded on video, and has since
been uploaded to YouTube:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy-G6rD_xl4
Other pictures were posted on my @xxxxxx Twitter feed over the weekend. If
you don't have a Twitter account, you can follow this link and scroll back
to see other photos I posted from the hamfest:
http://twitter.com/WD9EWK
Outside of the hamfest on Friday and Sunday mornings, I worked AO-85 from
the Yuma Territorial Prison State Historical Park, northwest of the hamfest
near the Colorado River. All of these locations were in the rarely-heard
grid DM22. For all of the AO-85 passes I worked at those two locations, I
captured and uploaded telemetry to AMSAT.
With AO-85 being in orbit for a few months now, and more satellites coming
during 2016, it makes it easier to talk about this part of ham radio at an
event like the Yuma Hamfest. Instead of "it's coming", I can say "we have
one Fox-1 satellite in orbit now, and more on the way". Add in the other
projects AMSAT is working on currently, and this is a much better situation
compared to a few years ago. A good thing. :-)
Thanks to Roger Hunt K7MEX and the Yuma Amateur Radio Hamfest Organization
(a not-for-profit corporation whose only purpose is this hamfest!) for
allowing AMSAT to be a part of the event. Thanks also to all the stations
who called WD9EWK during the demonstrations. Some of them took a little
bit of time to describe their location, and even their station setup -
things that help the crowds understand how far we can communicate through
the satellites, and what others use for their stations.
73!

I purchased an RTL-SDR dongle and now I'm trying to follow the
directions for downloading HDSDR software (instructions on the RTL-SDR
website). It all goes fine until I get to:
"Download ExtIO_RTL2832.DLL from
https://app.box.com/s/7tpiy8r6qo2bbhdxtt4k"
When I click on the link it takes me to the website, but the
ExtIO_RTL2832.dll won't download.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
I'm running Windows 7 Professional with Service Pack 1.

At K4AMG we have used small boxes and tossed around with a person in the
middle (earth). The kids make the boxes spin and we talk about the height,
spin, and speed. We also talk about how they are launched from earth to ISS

Luckily, no one! The plan is for a direct launch to Molniya orbit with no
rocket motor on the satellite.

Got my first telemetry from AO-85 this morning. If you scroll way down
to the bottom of the telemetry leaderboard you will find AI9IN!
A very large (can I say "YUGE") thank you to everyone who answered all
my questions about dongles, SDR, virtual audio cables, and downloading
ExtIO!
I couldn't have done it without help from my ham radio satellite
colleagues. AMSAT is a great organization to be part of.
