I guess/hope John is still busy with congratulations at the school since
it was a great contact and it all worked out.
And now there is a recording of NA1ISS calling KG4AKV. Just saw it on
the livestream.

As far as I know, the birdie problem has been there from the start. In 2008
there was an issue with ceramic filters. I have a vintage 2002 (serial
407XXXXX) and have never had an issue with it. You can always check out the
yahoo groups TS2000 archives. According to the TS2K group, after 2008,
Kenwood started using mosfets which most feel was a significant upgrade.

I'm contemplating trading a IC-7300 for a TS-2000. I need a backup radio for
satellites and EME. Are there any issues you users know about the 2000
vintage 2002? Was it plagued with birdies in the sat passband?

What about the MOSFETs made them an upgrade? I was unaware of the change,
although I do feel that somewhere along the line Kenwood changed the noise
blanker circuit and that the NB in older TS2000s was better.

If I recall correctly, persons posting on the TS2K yahoo group noted that
the finals originally were bipolar devices and that Kenwood upgraded those
to mosfets before the upgrade. This discussion concerning how to choose a
used TS2000 appears around July 5, 2017.
As for the NB, mine is on all the time and provides ?some? relief, but only
on USB, and yes on the sats.

The NB on my 2003 model ts 2000 actually does a really good job of taking
out the RFi crud I get here on HF and sometimes on 2 meters which makes it
useful on Mode B operations. Unlike some other NBs it doesn't distort the
received signals.

Subject: [amsat-bb] Programming software for FT-847?
Message-ID: <d07e71e2-9daa-330d-1418-5ba6ea82b9f4@?????.???>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Hi folks,
Any recommendations for configuration programming software for the Yeasu
FT-847? Something similar to what Kenwood provides for their rigs -
basic configs (memory frequency, mode, etc.), and preferably free, but
nothing shows up on their site.
I see that RT Systems has something, but my frustration level isn't high
enough to warrant buying both software and a special cable to do it. I
was just trying to enter memory settings for AO-91 and AO-92, and
managed to overwrite the wrong memory channel...
There's a bit of "shareware" by WB8NUT, but I can't verify that it
actually works because until you buy it, it won't talk to the radio.
Cheaper than the RT product, but I'm rather put off by its evaluation
terms. No sale.
Nothing else comes up that seems viable (e.g. a website that still exists).
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Greg KO6TH
