Has anyone on here use HRD with DXLab to work and log satellite contacts
using the HRD to DXLab bridge? I'm trying to integrate an IC-9700 into my
daily use sat setup, replacing SatPC32 and DXLab. I'm trying to get
something that's more integrated then what I'm now using and the bridged
HRD and DXLab look promising. Anyone doing this? Anyone interested in doing
this?

Norad has added another object very close to the two objects we are
tracking (one of which is PSAT2).
The new one is 44375
It is slightly behind 44354 and 44355.
If one of those three is USNAP1, then PSAT2 has to be behind it.
So PSAT2 could be either 44354 or 44375 maybe.
Proof?

Nobody knows? Here in east Asia some other hams are asking the same. We

There is quite a bit of detail on the possible modes of PSAT-2 operation at:
https://github.com/alpov/PSAT-2/blob/master/README.md
... so far, I've seen both PSK31 and SSTV in the 70cm downlink. However,
at such low elevations I am not getting enough signal to determine exactly
what the current pattern of operation is.
However, on the 2m downlink (145.825), the activity has picked up each
night as the rising elevation makes PSAT-2 available to more folks. Please
remember to transmit in NARROW-FM mode and if your radio has CAT control
and you can doppler-correct your uplink, better yet.

SSTV operation is entirely bus voltage driven. If there is plenty of
voltage, then SSTV will be frequent. If it is dark and battery voltage is
blow somehing like 6.8? volts then it will not transmitt SSTV. SSTV takes
a lot of power.
You can see the bus voltage as the firs channel in the T$SSS,VVV,III,
TTT,TTT,... telemetry. Volts is in hundredths.

PSAT2 checks out perfectly. We will leave it in the present mode for a
while.
That is, PSK31, SSTV (when volts are high), with Digipeater on, and
APRS-to-Voice is enabled.
PSAT2 is either object 44375 or 443354. It is not 355.

Thanks Bob, that explains a lot. Yesterday at 1400UTC I did see some
PSK31, but too weak to decode. So basically after 11UTC no need to try
PSAT2 then. Cheers,
Hans

Thanks for the link, I hadn't seen that page, yet.
As for 2m: I have a nasty local case of interference here which wipes
out 145.825 in most directions (local electronic billboard), so I'm not
active with APRS.
BTW, what do you mean by NARROW-FM? I take it that it is the deviation
of the FM signal, with narrow being 2.5 kHz, right?
