 I have for sale a Yaesu FT100D HF/6m/2m/70cm all mode mobile sized radio.
This is the model that does 100 watts on HF and 6m, 50 watts on 2m, and 20
watts on 70cm. It has the 500hz CW filter and TCXO as standard, as well as
tone encode and decode.

It also has a built in CW memory keyer, DSP noise reduction, an autonotch,
a DSP based Audio Peak Filter that is wonderful for CW, speech processor, a
meter that shows power out and SWR at the same time, and quite a few more
features.

It would make the nice half of a satellite station, using it to transmit on
2m or 70cm.


The case is in overall very good condition with 1 ding on the bottom
corner. I bought this back in March from Ham Radio Outlet so they checked
it all out then also.

The rig took a little tumble and it still works fine, but the volume shaft
is bent slight, so when you adjust the volume the squelch moves right along
with it.  You can hold the squelch control with one hand  so it stays in
place, and move the volume knob with your other hand.


It comes with a hand mic, power cord, and original box. This is a great way
to get on HF/VHF/UHF at the same time, and the receiver and noise blanker
in this rig are very good for the mobile class of rigs.

I am asking $300 shipped for it and can take paypal/check/MO.

Just listened to a long pass of a downlink on 145.840 MHz at 9600 baud full
scale on my radio.  Did not decode a single packet.

But it did track Doppler from starting at 145.840+ and ending at 145.335 or
so and it went from west, across north to East?



At first I thought it might have been someone uplinking to PFS3, but it was
solid, never dropped until it faded to the east.

That was CAS-4A at 145.835 MHz. It didn't decode because it's 4800
baud GMSK, not 9600 baud.

All:

I tried accessing Falconsat-3's BBS via PFS3-12 this afternoon, but I
wasn't able to connect. I'm using Easyterm with an experimental
full-duplex sound card modem by UZ7HO. This version has it's DCD
disabled to allow full-duplex operation.

Assuming the BBS is turned on, are there any special parameters needed
when using a simple terminal program? It would be nice to use Wisp
again, but I don't see a way to use a sound card modem with this program.

Thanks,

FalconSAT-3 uses the PACSAT broadcast protocol which doesn't work like
a standard terrestrial packet BBS. A program like WiSP would be needed
to manage the process of sending and receiving files and directory
entries.

WiSP is designed for use with KISS TNCs via a serial port.
Unfortunately, it appears that Soundmodem's KISS mode uses a TCP
connection. I suppose a utility that could route the packets to and
from a TCP port to a virtual serial port might work.

Hey Tony!

Don't have an answer for you but I'm really glad to see your message.  I
have been experimenting offline with TX through the UZ7HO high-speed
soundmodem using recorded FalconSat-3 9k6 data for my RX stream.  However, I
hit a roadblock with the DCD... I could only transmit when there was no
incoming data detected, which is very rare!

As for your live, on-air testing, have you tried any APRS messaging
transmissions instead of attempting to access the BBS?

Thanks!

I thought so Paul. I seem to recall someone posting something about

Same here...

I asked Andy (UZ7HO) about this and he whipped up a full-duplex version
of Soundmodem in a matter of hours. Works great with the DCD is
disabled. If you send him an email, I'm sure he'll send you a copy. His
email address is available on QRZ.

Plan on doing that on the next pass!

Some of our Japanese friends have had success with both APRS & the BBS via
FalconSat-3.  KO4MA has also figured out how to access the BBS, apparently.

All:

I'm told that there is a way to link a software modem to Wisp using
virtual comports and KISS modem emulation. The experimental full-duplex
UZ7HO's Soundmodem has a KISS port and I was wondering if someone can
guide me through the process i.e., how to setup Wisp's TNC port, which
VCP to use etc.

I already have Wisp setup for Falconsat-3, but it's been a LONG time
since I've used the program. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Tony -K2MO

Tony,

You may be able to use the digi using Easyterm and High-Speed Soundmodem.

As Paul has said, you must use WiSP (or pb/pg) to use the PBBS.  I no longer
have 9600 baud TX capability, but back in the AO-51 days, I was able to use
MixW with WiSP.  MixW generates a virtual serial port KISS TNC, which can be
coupled to WiSP using virtual serial ports.  MixW is $50, but you get a 30
day trial.  Another possible program is Dire Wolf.  I have never used it
that way, but the documentation of the latest version mentions a virtual
serial port TNC emulation.  That is free.

I expect that many of those using the PBBS are using hardware modems which
support 9600 baud.

73s,

Alan

Hi All,

This is to let you know that AO-73/FUNcube is now in amateur mode for the
weekend, with transponder activated.

As per normal, we will switch back to autonomous mode on Sunday pm UTC.

73s Jim G3WGM and the FUNcube Team

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
FUNcube frequencies and other details
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

AO-73 FUNcube-1
The transponder is normally operational only when the satellite is in
eclipse, ie the solar panels are NOT being illuminated. During weekends
(from pm Fridays UTC to PM Sundays UTC) the transponder is operational 24/7.

When the transponder is switched off, the telemetry beacon is on full power,
when the transponder is on the beacon it is on low power. During holidays,
eg Christmas, New Year, Easter, etc, the transponder maybe activated for
extended periods. Watch AMSAT-BB for announcements which are usually made on
Friday evenings (UTC)

The nominal transponder frequencies are:
Uplink:   435.150 - 435.130 MHz LSB (Inverting)
Downlink:   145.950 - 145.970 MHz USB
Telemetry Tx: 145.935 MHz BPSK

(The passband may be up to 15kHz higher depending on on-board temps. Low
temperatures give higher freqs!)


FUNcube-2 aka FUNcube on UKube
The FUNcube-2 sub-system continues to operate autonomously and, almost
continuously, in amateur mode. The transponder is operational and the
telemetry downlink is functioning with about 70mW output. The FUNcube-1
Dashboard does not correctly display the telemetry but it does correctly
decode the data and uploads it to the FUNcube Data Warehouse from where it
can be examined. Most of the real time data channels are operational and
these include battery voltages, temperatures and ADCS data coming via the
main On Board Computer (OBC).

The transponder is interrupted for a few seconds every 2 minutes when the
other transmitter sends its CW beacon and, occasionally, for a few seconds
when the main OBC reboots (approx seven times each orbit).

The nominal transponder frequencies are:
Uplink:   435.080 - 435.060 MHz LSB (Inverting)
Downlink:   145.930 - 145.950 MHz USB
Telemetry Tx: 145.915 MHz BPSK

(The passband may be up to 10kHz higher depending on on-board temps. Low
temperatures give higher freqs!)


EO79 FUNcube-3
Due to power budget constraints the transponder cannot be operational 24/7
and an orbit specific schedule has been developed. The transponder will
commence operation 27 minutes after the spacecraft enters sunlight and will
stay on for a period of 25 minutes. This schedule may be modified in future
months as a result of experience.

The nominal transponder frequencies are:
Uplink: 435.0723-435.0473 MHz LSB (Inverting)
Downlink: 145.946-145.971 MHz USB

Further detailed info on EO79 transponder frequencies is at:
https://amsat-uk.org/2016/11/10/eo79-funcube-3-transponder-commences-regular-o
peration/EO88
Nayif-1 FUNcube-5EO88 is presently operating in autonomous mode. The
