I am encouraged by the numbers of Satellite operators who would also to like
to make a DE contact.
I appreciate that it is less complicated to set up a portable station for
the FM mode but my hope is whomever makes DE available has linear satellite
capability. With my present station in western OR I cannot work further
east than MT on FM birds but can work the Midwest on CAS-4A/B and the east
coast on RS-44.

Albert,
I'm confused and have to ask as to why you can't work past MT on FM.
I'm one gird over from you (CN94) and have worked the entire eastern
seaboard and Puerto Rico via FM from here. Do you have some massive
mountain blocking you?

I can hear the downlink on 437.800 Mhz great....However, cannot get into the

Yup, thats correct although I had difficulty accessing the repeater for the
first 3 or 4 minutes of that last pass - after that it was fine!

Jerry,
Yes the frequencies and tone (67Hz) are correct.
Today, I could here myself very strong (as good as the local repeaters) from
very low elevation. Seems that the Tx is quite powerful compared with other
birds, on the uplink it works also very well with low power (2W) however
sometimes need much more which up to 25W, probably due to the ISS structure
occulting the antenna towards the ground station.

One thing that I noticed that if one got too excited and speaks too loud /
screaming then the audio becomes cut in and out, like there is a limiter on
the audio chain.
Speaks normally and the down audio is very nice.

I was unable to get into the repeater on a 45 deg elevation pass this
morning using 5W and an Arrow antenna, but I had a lot of competition. I was
able to hear the downlink reasonably well although I did notice the sporadic
cutting in and out mentioned by Yono in another post in this thread.

Casey,
I am confused also. At my former QTH (30 East of my present location) I had
M2 CP antennas and could work stations as far as you described. At my
present location in Dallas OR my antennas are egg beaters in the attic and
work better than I thought they would on linear birds but are poor on the FM
satellites.
For example, this morning I just worked the new ISS FM V/u system for my
first time. I could not receive the downlink until the elevation was
greater than 20 and the range was less than 900 km. As soon as the
elevation dropped below 20 degrees and the range was greater than 1000 km, I
lost my down link.
My guess is it is due to polarity mis-match between the satellite and my
antennas.

Hi GuysI want to embark on converting my sat station over to PI 4b computer
using gpredict,hamlib and a compatible rotor control unit that will work
with Yaesu G5500.
I am sure someone out there has done this but I am in need of an elmer!
Someone will comment, why. I have my hF stations working fine with PI and I
want to send Microsoft to the dungeon!
