 ?? I have an old version of SatPC32 pre windows 10. I think I bought it
about 4? years ago. Can I upgrade or do I need to buy a new Version? I down
loaded the current demo program and I though I might be able to use it. I
have the serial number (not sure if that is password) GI10******* on the

Mike,

That is the registration number, and it is good forever.  Just install the
demo, insert the number, and it is fully registered.

See, I had an old copy as well and it would not take my number on the most
recent downloaded version.

I tried it several times, but I'll give it another shot.

Good day to all. Related to my previous post, please check this link for an
interesting NBFM transceiver board for L-band uplinks:

The problem with this design is that it uses the MC3372, which is
obsolete. findchips.com shows that Quest and Bristol have a few, but not
many.

One could replace this chip with additional mixers and perhaps a
SA612-based FM discriminator.

Mike,

Mike,

GI+9 digits is the correct password length.  The data is stored locally, and
you can install SatPC32 on any number of computers.  Currently it is on 3 of
mine.  Did you originally register the program under a different call?  The
registration number is based on your call at the time of purchase.

73s,

Alan

I had a brief email exchange with Bas PE1JPD. He confirms the step size is
indeed 25KHz but is investigating how to produce a 5KHz step.

He has been quick to respond, and I would encourage anyone who has questions
to review his site and ask questions via email to him.
