Hi Jeff,
I hope I understand your question correctly.
In text file Config.SQF in the SatPC32 DATA folder you can specify
manually (using editor Notepad) which of the 4 configrurations SatPC32
will use. So, if you get a problem with one of the configurations and
can't start the program you can choose another configuration in file
Config.SQF.
The file contains two lines.
For config 1 it? should look as follows:
\SatPc32\
0
for config 2:
\SatPC32\CfgII\
1
for config 3:
\SatPC32\CfgIII\
2
for config 4:
\SatPC32\CfgIV\
3
These pasth names are fix and must not be changed.
The folder AppData in the path is hidden by default. Therefore make
first hidden files and folders visible (using the Windows File Explorer).

Hello all,
Has anyone heard this new sat beacon ?
I get only a few daytime passes a day here on the east coast and have not

FYI,
The IARU has coordinated these frequencies for Diwata-2:
? 145.900 MHz downlink
? 437.500 MHz uplink
Diwata-2?s Amateur Radio Unit
Diwata-2?s Amateur Radio Unit (ARU) operates in two possible modes: FM voice
repeater (FMVR) mode, and APRS-based digital repeater (digipeater) mode. The
uplink and downlink of these modes are implemented at 437.7MHz and 145.9MHz
respectively. The following lists some information that may be useful when
utilizing the radio?s services.
Telemetry Formats
The Diwata-2 amateur radio unit (ARU) provides telemetry data in two forms
depending on its operational mode: CW (enabled in ARU voice repeater mode),
and FM (enabled in ARU digipeater mode. As the two operational modes are
scheduled according to the day of the week, the available telemetry differ
in format and content correspondingly. This section explains the data format
and specifications for the ARU telemetry.
Continuous-wave telemetry (CW)
The CW telemetry is available when the satellite is in voice repeater mode.
The telemetry messages expected from the ARU will be sent every 1 minute,
when the ARU is idle, i.e. there are no ongoing voice operations. This said,
the telemetry will not be available when the ARU is busy, and likewise, the
telemetry transmission will be abruptly aborted when a voice repeating
operation starts while in the midst of telemetry downlink. The data can be
received in Morse code format of 120 WPM, at a frequency of 145.9 MHz. The
pertinent data format is shown below, and further explained in the table
that follows.

No reports have yet been submitted to https://www.amsat.org/status/
There is confusion regarding the uplink since their website says 437.7
but the coordinated frequency is 437.5.
Since the amateur radio mission is just a payload on a larger
satellite, I would not expect any operations from the amateur radio
unit in the early part of commissioning the satellite. Hopefully they
will provide updates once it is activated.

Yes I have the keps on my Ham Radio Deluxe sat program ( now sure from which
TLE provider ) and I also see it on http://amsat.org.ar/pass.htm after
adding it to the list.
Just had a 9 degree pass but heard nothing. I may just be too early in the
commissioning process.
Also it says CW at 120 One Hundred Twenty WPM ? Really ?
????The data can be received in Morse code format of 120 WPM, at a frequency
of 145.9 MHz?

FYI,
The IARU has coordinated these frequencies for Diwata-2:

? 437.500 MHz uplink
Diwata-2?s Amateur Radio Unit?
Diwata-2?s Amateur Radio Unit (ARU) operates in two possible modes: FM voice
repeater (FMVR) mode, and APRS-based digital repeater (digipeater) mode. The
uplink and downlink of these modes are implemented at 437.7MHz and 145.9MHz
respectively. The following lists some information that may be useful when
utilizing the radio?s services.
Telemetry Formats
The Diwata-2 amateur radio unit (ARU) provides telemetry data in two forms
depending on its operational mode: CW (enabled in ARU voice repeater mode),
and FM (enabled in ARU digipeater mode. As the two operational modes are
scheduled according to the day of the week, the available telemetry differ
in format and content correspondingly. This section explains the data format
and specifications for the ARU telemetry.
Continuous-wave telemetry (CW)
The CW telemetry is available when the satellite is in voice repeater mode.
The telemetry messages expected from the ARU will be sent every 1 minute,
when the ARU is idle, i.e. there are no ongoing voice operations. This said,
the telemetry will not be available when the ARU is busy, and likewise, the
telemetry transmission will be abruptly aborted when a voice repeating
operation starts while in the midst of telemetry downlink. The data can be
received in Morse code format of 120 WPM, at a frequency of 145.9 MHz. The
pertinent data format is shown below, and further explained in the table
that follows.

Hello all,
Has anyone heard this new sat beacon ?
I get only a few daytime passes a day here on the east coast and have not
been at the rig during those passes.

Nothing heard from it yesterday on a fairly high pass.
Tried both voice & packet on both of the uplink frequencies with no result.
