I've worked 48 DXCC entities from the heart of Texas on the LEO birds. Due
to trees, working EU is nearly impossible for me.

I recently shared the press release for Open Research Institute being fully
funded for Phase 1 of GEO/HEO/Lunar payload work. This is a dedicated
amateur radio payload and all of it is open source. All of the work ORI
does directly helps AMSAT.
We have a major hardware summit with ARISS/AREx for the Lunar payload on 25
June 2020, a Preliminary Design Review following that, and consistent and
successful demonstrations and presentations published over the past three
years. Some of us have been working on high altitude amateur payloads for
the past decade.
The team welcomes volunteers at all ability levels. ORI takes full
advantage of the public domain carve out in ITAR and EAR and promotes open
source as the only real alternative to impossibly heavy commercially-based
ITAR burdens. The result is a diverse and global team.
ORI has filed a Commodity Jurisdiction request with the US State Department
so that all us amateur radio satellite service organizations can benefit
from a better regulatory environment. Any result is an improvement over the
current situation. A positive result of any type will be game-changing.
Regulatory work is a process.
An open source policy for AMSAT is in the works with the help of FD
Associations, a consulting firm that specializes in ITAR and EAR. There
should be some very good news here by Symposium 2020.
Announcements about the payload work from ORI are sent out to this list
from time to time.
There is also a dedicated mailing list at
http://lists.openresearch.institute/listinfo.cgi/ground-station-openresearch.i
nstitute
if anyone wants more frequent technical, regulatory, and fundraising
updates.

Dave,
I'm pretty sure people have gotten DXCC via LEO sats, or for certain many
ops have more than a "handful".
You do know you could work portable? Go to the east coast work a ton of EU,
then come over to the west coast pick up HI/JAPAN/RUSSIA/AK, then head
south to Florida and work all the SA countries, and islands to your heart's
content. However, if you plan on sitting in a shack your limiting yourself.
But let's say you don't wanna work portable...Just for fun, I drew a
circle with a 8,000km radius from EN53qb, and I can tell you there is more
than 100 DX in that circle.
And really would SAT DXCC via a well placed GEO SAT be that fun or
exciting? You would just sit there and make contacts all day, and the
challenge/fun would be sorta just be gone, IMO.

Can we kind of establish a frequency range on RS44 for DX contacts? Hunting
around in the pass band cuts into time on the sat when down to a few degrees.

Not to belabor the point, but I see satellites as a different animal from
ionospheric DXing. I am a newbie to the operating and station-building
skills required to fully appreciate the depth of this part of the hobby,
but I would hesitate to let your experience with HF or VHF DXing taint your
experience using a flying repeater.
I?m very excited for both, but don?t judge one aspect of the hobby I enjoy
against the other.

I've somehow gotten things completely screwed up as I once had this

it isn't. I need to get this working if possible before field day so any

So I had a very long pass on AO-7 this afternoon, and I noticed two things
that I have never seen before: I had to lower my MKIIG down to "L" so as
to not blow out the transponder, and even that seemed too high (2W out, 50
ft of RG-8X, M2 Leo Pack). Everybody sounded weird and the CW qsos going
on seemed to be suffering from a ton of drift. I had just listened in on
CAS-4A previous to this pass and heard no problems there... so I don't
think it's my station. Did anybody else experience this? Or is my $20
RTL dongle finally ready for the bin?

You sounded great and I just logged you. The transponder was seriously FMing
and on the verge of flipping due to a high power CW station lower in the
passband. Thanks for the QSO!

Thanks, Jeff. I've never experienced the "FMing" before (although I've
certainly read about it) - so I wasn't sure exactly what was going on. I
really think for whatever reason it was receiving exceptionally well today
- because I've never had to turn my power down that much (and I was
definitely part of the problem as I could see the rest of the pass band
pulsating with each word I spoke - even when I was at the lowest power
setting - the sat was directly overhead by then).
After our qso ended I tuned around and listened to the other QSOs and the
FMing continued. I was gunshy at that point so I didn't attempt any more
QSOs. :D

In image mode, JY1Sat only uses two frame type IDs (32 & 33) during the
during the transmission of an image within a sequence.
This meant that the scoring mechanism was only scoring 2 out of 24 packets
per sequence. I.e 1/12 of the number expected to be
scored.
We have now changed the scoring to better reflect the number of packets
received. It now uses a unique key comprised of:
Sequence Number
Frame Type
Md5Hash of the Hex String

Every now and then I get sick of dealing with Windows updates and
particularly the dreaded updates and think about going back to using an
Apple computer. I'd be interested in learning how many of you are using
Apple computers with Apple software. Let me hear from you please.

Dog Park Software makes everything you need satellite tracking and logging!
I have limited experience with the software (I do have an old MacBook Air,
but don?t use it very often) but everything I?ve heard about it is that it
works great.

MacDoppler is also available through the AMSAT store and AMSAT gets a
portion of the proceeds.
