I'll also be operating for this event on sats. I'll be using callsign
K2J representing North Carolina. I hope to work at least a pass or two
and I'll send an email to the list when I know what pass[es] I'll be
on.

I use a pair of 991A on sideband and FM, and I?ve had pretty good luck with
them.  It is -not- full duplex, sadly.

My only other experience was with a borrowed 9100, and I didn?t notice any
difference between it and the 991.

As far as the band scope goes, it seems to work best on 2m.  I sometimes
wish the display was larger.

Best,

Has anyone used the Yaesu FT991A on the satellites?  Does the bandscope
really help to find people in the downlink passband?  Also, how does it do
on the FM satellites?  The QST review made it look like it is kind of deaf
on FM.

Thanks to the hard work of Chris this issue has now been fixed. I just
downloaded the latest version (v0.24) of PacSat Ground Station and was
successful in uploading two messages. This was done on my Linux box
(Kubuntu 19.04) with Direwolf v1.5 as soundmodem/PE. A flow chart of my
setup can be found here: http://bx2abt.com/main/Falconsat-3.

Thanks again to Chris for writing this modern day PacSat software.
