I have one of the ERC units (RS-232) for HD-73 rotor control.  It has
served me well for about 3 years and would recommend it.

Hi All,

As usual I'll be in HM58 this Christmas and fully equipped.

I'll have an Alaskan Arrow, Yaesu FT-817ND, Yaesu FT-857D, Kenwood
TS-2000 and a Wouxun KG-UV9DPlus. Most of the operation will be done
using the TS-2000.

Expected operating days are December 23 and 24, plus 25 afternoon/evening.
Being a family holiday, skeds are accepted depending on availability.

The exact location is HM58qm, at CU7BC QTH (check QRZ.com), same place
as last year.

I'll keep everyone posted on my twitter account (@xxxxxxxx.

73,
Pedro CU2ZG

Subject: [amsat-bb] Question - Icom IC910-H full duplex operation
using the	Data jack inputs
Message-ID: <007401d369eb$8b4089d0$a1c19d70$@xxxxx.xxx>
Content-Type: text/plain;	charset="us-ascii"

I have an IC-910H question maybe someone can help with?


Would like to set up mine for full duplex to work Falconsast-3 using the
Data  jacks for TX/RX data jacks for I/O but cannot seem to get the TX input
side working.  I do get RX data out of the radio no problem, so issue seems
isolated to TX input side of the Data jacks.

In brief, I made a cable so that the output of an UZ7HO sound modem will
pass audio into the Data jack input.  The cable ohms out OK, but I do not
seem to be getting the data/audio into the radio via either Data jack.  I
have set the audio going into the data jacks at ~ 0.4 V p-p.  I am aware
that when the rig is in Satellite mode, the Data jacks act in reverse.

To troubleshoot further, I have tried Split mode.  As I understand, this
should leverage the Main Data jack only? With the radio in split FM mode
only, even if I feed a 1k2 tone to the Main or Sub Data jack input and key
the radio (by pushing the front panel TX button), I cannot hear modulation
on a second radio set up to monitor the IC-910H TX frequency.   Have also
tried all sorts of combinations for the Main and Sub Data inputs, but no
joy.



Is it required to assert PTT from the Data jack itself?



BYW, I already have 1K2 packet set up for the sound modem using the ACC
jack.  Works FB.  I'd just like to use the Data jacks for 9K2.

 Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot further?  I will try an even lower
audio input level (as suggested by N8MH), but the TX light is bright with
0.4 V input suggesting that the automatic limiter may not be the problem?



Hopefully, I have missed something very simple.  Direct email replies OK
too.



Thanks,



Bob

Good morning!

Just received word from Alejandro, HC8LUT Dxpedition Manager, and he
informed that the satellite antennas are up and ready. They will try the
AO-7 pass that starts at 20:16z.

Best of luck to them and our fellow chasers. Please be mindful of your
