I've had some contact with the SatSat author who said AO-85 comes from the
AMSAT website (which is not too surprising since that's the only place it
exists :)  Trying to check with him about the exact URL he is using.  I
also don't know whether Satsat itself goes to the website or if he (or
someone) assembles the info for the app somewhere else.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

Hello,?
I have an issue on my 910H.?
On my 910h, I get ?desense? on all linear sats except FO29. FO29:is clear
and perfect, but any other linear I just hear my crakely voice until I tune
perfectly to hear myself. Then I can still hear the static version of me
behind the clear version.

I have replaced all cables, diplexers, connectors?and the Arrow. The issue
still is there.?
I have also tried to used an MJF diplexer on the 70cm side to try to stop
the desense, but it didn't help.?
Any thought as to what the issue could be?

My 910H has the opposite effect.? I get desense on FO-29, while U/v sats are
crystal clear.? Putting a 2M bandpass fillter on the VHF side clears up
FO-29 for me.

One "trick" I have used is to prepare the "logsheet" ahead of time by
writing the
satellite name, my grid, the date. etc across the top as the first line.
Then write
a vertical column of UTC times (just four digits for
hour-hour-minute-minute) from
AOS to LOS down one side of the page with plenty of space between each
minute-line.  Starting as AOS, at the top of the page, whenever I hear a
callsign,
I write down the callsign (and grid if I get that too) even if I know I've
already
worked this station. They might call you later in the pass and you'll have
his
call "ready" on the logsheet.

When I have worked someone, I can quickly circle their callsign then draw a
line over to the appropriate minute for the QSO and circle the time.  This
is
usually faster (for me at least) than writing the time after working him,
and the
circled-callsign-line-circled-timestamp adds (for me at least) an extra
confirmation that, yes, I actually worked this callsign, not just that I
heard
this callsign on this pass.

Prepare all of the logsheets for all your passes ahead of time, put them
on a clipboard and use a rubber band or clip to hold the bottom of the page
to the clipboard just in case it gets windy.

My other suggestion would be to get a tripod or a stand with a big clip and
use that to hold your Arrow/cheap yagi/whatever antenna.  With a little
practice,
you can adjust the antenna quickly, re-peak the signal, and you should be
good for a short while before you need to touch the antenna again.  This
will free up the hand that would have been holding the antenna to do other
tasks.

Never had problems with my 910 and no problems with my 9700, both on an Arrow.

NO-84 is in safe mode due to lack of power at this phase in its orbit.
It is showing PSAT-1 callsign (SAFE) and is unusable.

Should improve in a month.  Unknown if it will be usable by fieldday in 2
weeks.

Ditto on 910, never had that issue on linear.

Hi Bob,
Yes me and Scott K4KDR has observed this both with NO-84 the past few days.
Here is a video Scott has on youtube of NO-84's 70cm PSK31 downlink acting
crazy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XqcUNJumSE . The 70cm downlink has
been either a ticking carrier, not transmitting at all, or will transmit
properly for a few seconds before going crazy again. I hope this is not the
last we hear of the PSK31 transponder as I have really enjoyed it. The APRS
downlink with the beacon telemetry has been observed by both me and him as
either off completely or on for a limited a time. I hope to see NO-84's
condition improve soon and to see the launch coming up in a few weeks of
NO-84s replacement, PSAT-2 on the next Falcon Heavy Launch!
