Jim,

Thanks for our contact on XW-2A yesterday. You had a fine signal and I
appreciate the opportunity to work a new grid!

Have a great week and 73,

Gurstavo,

try the KISS port on the Soundmodem device. I also used "localhost"

it worked for me

Let me see, if I google Healthimpactnews.com I find this:

Notes: Health Impact News is pure pseudoscience.  According to Web of Trust
<https://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/healthimpactnews.com>this site has been
flagged for misleading claims, alternative and/or controversial medicine.
The site misleads people with quackery that is actually dangerous to your
health if you take their claims seriously. Health Impact News is
fiercely anti-vaccine

and GMO
<http://healthimpactnews.com/2015/glyphosate-pathways-to-modern-diseases/>.
This is one of the worst purveyors or junk science on the internet. (D. Van

I leave it at that.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed

Hi Laird Taylor N7RSR,

 ?with FT736R there is one more problem, not just how to gain suitable
cable. CAT system in FT736R allows us to set Freq for RX and TX only.
But no possibility? how to read RX freq!? And this causes us difficulty.

Frequency setting algorithm works with feedback. First set the frequency
and then read it back. Verify that both frequencies are the same.If the
verification fails, the control loop will stop working.

There exists some solutions to this problem. For example, insert a small
8bit microcontroller between the PC and the TRX. Microcontrollerdecodes
the command to set the RX frequency and remembers it.The read command
returns the stored frequency from memory without reading it in the RX.
When working through satellites, it is necessary to tune the RX using
the mouse wheel.
I do not know if the MacBook works as I have described.? But GPredict
sat software works as described and stops the control loop after 5
errors in the read command.

Mr. Google help us to find concrete solution.

//=================================
I have an FT-736R and have just purchased MacDoppler from AMSAT. It will
be installed in a MacBook running OS 10.13.6. I?m shopping for a CAT
cable to go between the two units. The guy at HRO said the original
Yaesu cable to go with Macs has part# FIF-65A but I don?t see anything
yet on Google by that moniker. He also said the Yaesu CAT cable for PCs
is FIF-232C - which I DO see around. Then I see a caution that there are
lots of cheap cables around that use terrible chips that are a nightmare
to keep running. The only cable I?ve found so far (on eBay) is $35 and
the vendor doesn?t seem to admit which chip set is used. Amazon in the
UK has a cable for sale for 16 GBP, which could be one of the cheaper
ones. Immediate questions: 1. What subset of the alleged plethora of
available cables is MacDoppler compatible with CAT on the FT-736R? 2.
Who sells such cables nowadays? So far I?ve found only eBay and Amazon;
it?s not even clear they?re selling the same cable - never mind the one
I must use... 73 Laird Taylor N7RSR

Maybe this is the reason that we need a SPACE FORCE.  They can go clean up
all of the dead satellites and either bring them back for recycling or let
them burn up in reentry.   I know of a couple of Amsat satellites that we
would like to get back and find out what went wrong, and be able to
relaunch.

 There are four resent books I have read that involving technology and
satellites???? Good and quick reads.

Shadow Tyrants - Clive Cussler - satellites launched - The Oregon Files
Matt Richtel - Dead On Arrival -? satellites launched
Dan Brown - Origin - mostly technology and religionInfinity Beckoned - Jay
Gallentine - non-fiction - Adventuring through the Inter Solar System 1969 -
1989
There was a TV show/movie that depicted moving a existing satellite into
another and causing a chain reaction but the title slips my mind.??? I was
very resent.??????
