All:
Does anyone know if the Kenwood PG-5H programing cable is the same as
the PG-5G used to connect to the internal TNC on the TM-D710G?
The manual is a bit vague on whether the PG-5H that connects to the rear
of the radio is the same as the PG-5G that connects to the front panel
to access the TNC.

To maximize these radio contact opportunities, ARISS is looking for
organizations that will draw large numbers of participants and integrate the
contact into a well-developed education plan.
?
The deadline to submit a proposal is November 24th, 2020; the window has now

About ARISS:
?
Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative
venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that
support the International Space Station (ISS).? In the United States,
sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American
Radio Relay League (ARRL), the ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote
exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEAM)
topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew
members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before
and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and
communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For
more information, see www.ariss.org.

Subject: Re: [amsat-bb] SatPC32 - need help with configuration of
Doppler.SQX file
Thanks to all for the replies. I am in Slovakia, JN88, until 14 December,
so if I can get this sorted I can hopefully give out a few transatlantic
QSOs on AO-7 and RS-44 (from this QTH, I once once held the AO-7 record for
longest QSO, with KC0RA in Iowa).?
Two other quick questions:
1) What is the best source for the latest Doppler.SQF file? The JE9PEL file
linked on the AMSAT UK website
(https://amsat-uk.org/satellites/satpc32-doppler-sqf-file/) is not accurate.
In addition to incorrectly showing RS-44 as NOR, it also is incorrect for
CAS-4A and CAS-4B, and perhaps others.
2) Any tips for fine tuning the frequencies on SatPC32? I was very active on
the sats about 10 years ago, and I recall it being an easy process,
just?click the Uplink Calibration buttons in the CAT Control window while
TXing until the voice sounds natural, then save by clicking Change/Store
Data File and then RX/TX Freq. Data. Am I forgetting something? Seems to
require recalibration on every new pass, in was not like that 10 years ago.

RIP Arecibo (sobsob) I remember several years ago they did some EME on
70cm. I could copy them very easily
