Patrick,
I found the installation instructions, too. I was hoping more for
dissassembly/lube instructions. However, I've got both halves split open
and cleaned up already, and it was pretty easy. I actually got this
rotator from Stephen (VE4NSA) who is also on this list.
So far, the rotor appears to be in good shape. No signs of water
intrusion, gears are still looking good and all have grease on them. The
ball bearings all had grease, as well, although it was very thick and a lot
had oozed out and was dry on the exterior of the housings (WD-40 cleaned
that up nicely). My wife is due home any minute and is likely to be upset
when she sees this exploded rotator spread across the dining room table)
I will likely lube the gears with lithium grease, and was going to use
synthetic axle grease on the bearings, but perhaps somebody has a more
appropriate suggestion? This assembly was sold to me as a "tech special",
so the controller actually needs some work, too (I believe it was one of
the gages didn't register.... was that you that had the same issue?)
One other question to the group, was recommendations for the control wire.
I think I remember somebody suggesting network cable wire? Is there
anywhere where I can find the small 8-pin connectors (look to be DIN)?
I'm hoping to use new connectors and make "extension" cables of different
lengths depending on how I am using the system, so I'll need male and
female connectors.

Thanks to several folks on the list who pointed out that the audio recorder
was the Sony ICD-PX370. Some went even further sending me the direct link on
Amazon, etc.
Best thing about the satellite hobby is that it retains the value of ham
radio as it was when I entered the hobby forty years ago. Thank you so much.

Hi George,
I have found that as I have added additional software programs to work with
HRD, such as N1MM Logger and HDSDRplay, I have had to install Virtual Serial
Ports Emulator and run the Splitter function. It creates a number of virtual
serial ports that I can connect HRD, N1MM and HDSDR without any conflict. On
my system I point VSPE to COM 4 and then have created a virtual serial port
at COM 20. HRD, N1MM and HDSDR and then connected to COM 20 and they all
work fine. Give that a try and see if it helps. Good luck!

I?m a bit of a nomad, and have always enjoyed taking the roads less
travelled. That applies to my hobby as well?those of us who work VHF are a
fairly rare bunch. Those who work satellites; not often spotted in the wild.
But apparently, rarer still are those who enjoy making contacts on
satellites that are not AO-91, A0-92, SO-50, and FO-29.
Working from home today, so I got on nearly every satellite pass over the
United States. Alternated between calling CQ and searching for others to work.
The results of working eight different passes? Four contacts for the day.
Two on SO-50, one each on AO-91 and FO-29.
Called CQ on XW-2A at dinner time. High elevation pass. Good strong downlink
the entire pass from horizon to horizon. Nada?
It did net me an SWL report from Mark Gluch, KB3CI who heard me loud and
clean in EN82 near Detroit. He doesn?t have the transmit side working yet
for the linear birds, but will soon.
Ditto on AO-7, a whole pass on FO-29 this morning, and at least three of the
XW birds.
Last weekend, I listed to the L band activity on AO-91 and there was a ton
more activity there than I heard today. (I?m working on getting the 1296
Yagi up so I can join you folks.)
We?ve got a sky full of great satellites that perform well. Let?s use them.

I e-mailed you more details privately, Roy, but for the benefit of others, I
was advised to use marine grease... found some at Walmart that worked for
~$5. Also, get some wooden tongue depressors to spread the grease on... that
made things a whole lot easier!!

p.s. I have a complete set of 5400B/5600B style rotors here I would like to
find a home for... just no way to ship them. Some of the bolts and mounting
hardware need a little cleaning up (surface rust), but the rotors themselves
and the controller are fine and working when removed from service last
summer. If anyone thinks they might like to come get them, I have a
reasonable price in mind... e-mail me off list.

Your efforts were GREATLY appreciated.
Today was our once-a-year student lab to predict a satellite pass and then
go verify it.
The students and I were out in the cold rain/snow and hearing absolutely
nothing on FO-29. For most of the pass... I couidnt understand it.
Then just a minute before LOS, we heard Les, N1LF callling CQ with an
xcellent signal.
Students were impressed that there was something there, but wanted to know
why no one was answering
We only demoonstrate RX with a handheld and so did not have a second rig
for uplink.

Folks,
As I've said before, we're absolutely committed to resolving all defects in
the software and making it the best product available for satellite
operators.
I just began testing our new beta (6.5.0.188) with our Rotor Control and
Satellite Tracking applications. We have just made some changes to these
apps and will continue until all reported issues are resolved. We believe
that the majority of the 33 Rotor Control issues will be resolved by these
changes... which also corrects a number of items in the Satellite Tracking
app.
My test with a Portable Rotation AZ/EL controller (PR12SAT) and FT-991A
worked as expected (with a few known issues we're working on).
The rotor correctly tracked the satellite and the rig's downlink was
correctly controlled. There's still an issue I want resolved related to
the Doppler frequency correction on the uplink.
I have also compared the path of several key satellites in Satellite
Tracking against the AMSAT tracking website. I don't see any differences
in tracking the satellite. (I have found that the term "tracking" can
refer to updating the rig's frequency in our Rig Control or Satellite
Tracking app, it can refer to the Rotor Control tracking a satellite pass,
and it can refer to the software's ability to track the path of a satellite
during its pass.)
I'm looking for feedback. I've heard of "tracking" problems... but I'm not
seeing these problems. I'm happy to listen to and test any reports or
explanations you have for this tracking problem.
Mike, WA9PIE

If anyone has successfully retrieved az-el data from SatPC32 via a USB port,
please contact me (occamrazr?yahoo.com)
I have explored DDE, labjack, ServerSDX and others with no success.
The data string that I am looking for is output at 1Hz and looks like this:
SNAO-85 AZ316.6 EL5.1 UP435171213 UMNor DN145982947 DFM MA153.4
