Hi
Yes, 1.01 crashes here every day, probably with the same message.
But to be fair, the only thing it stops doing, is sending data to the
server. Everything else carries on as normal without loss of data.
You appear to be able to shut it down, then restart, after which it sends
all the data to the server in a few seconds.
I can live with that.

Subject: [amsat-bb] FoxTelem Program Java aspect crashes every day now
I've reported this to the wily programmers.
However, I was wondering if
others have their FoxTelem monitoring
program crash ... complaining about Java
??
(Java build 1.8.0_65-b17)
A little annoying now since I leave it
monitoring/decoding and let
SatPC32 track.
I came in both today and
yesterday to the window telling me about the
crash and the program needs
re-start.
I didn't have this problem before the last Java mandatory updates
.Now I
want a link to be able to roll-back the Win7/64 version I have
installed.

As an aside, the FoxTelem program for the Mac requires you to downgrade from
the latest Java to V6 - I?d love to work use the app but don?t want to have
to replace the latest Java with a lesser less secure version. I know it?s
an issue with OS X and am sure the authors would prefer it wasn?t so but w/o
some kind of workaround I?m reluctant to mess with it.

Is there a good HF reflector for PSK31 people?
Maybe its just that satellite folks do not do HF PSK31 and HF PSK31
operators don't know about sateliltes?

Bob,
It is a shame it's not more popular. I have listened to the downlink and
it's a good signal. My apartment QTH makes it very difficult to set up to
use it, but most hams with a full home satellite station should be able to
use it very easily.
Maybe an award for working several different stations on it would help
increase the popularity?

Bob, probably the most knowledgeable PSK31 operators on the planet meet
here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/070/
You may have a good idea as this bunch is always looking for a new
event/challenge. (the Club has endorsement stickers that we get for
competing in special events. With no big investment in new gear, working
PSAT would likely be a doable deal. Suggest you join the reflector and make
a post. Since this is all new to them, start at the basics.
(if you have problems joining the Yahoo Group, I'll see if I can get you on
with a 'special guest appearance'..pls let me know) (or contact Matt King
direct. I have cc'd him here)

Please join us in listening to the ISS contact with participants at
*Dragonskolan, Ume?, Sweden* on Thursday November 5th. AOS is anticipated
at 10:35 UTC
The duration of the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The
contact will be a telebridge between NA1SS and VK6MJ in Australia. The
contact is expected to be conducted in English.
Audio from this contact will be fed into the:
EchoLink *AMSAT* (101377)
IRLP Node 9010 Discovery Reflector
Streaming Audio at: https://sites.google.com/site/arissaudio/
Audio on Echolink & web stream is generally transmitted around 20 minutes
prior to the contact taking place so that you can hear some of the
preparation that occurs. IRLP will begin just prior to the ground station
call to the ISS.
** Contact times are approximate. If the ISS executes a reboost or other
manoeuvre, the AOS (Acquisition Of Signal) time may alter by a few minutes
**

Yes, the crash is know and is fixed in the version that is being tested by
the AMSAT test team. We hope to release it very shortly. Real life and
work seems to keep getting in the way :)

I like to see the 10m uplink "arrow" approach :-)
While PSAT-1 is a nice "proof of concept for PSK-31" in reality it does
nothing for the portable operator and that is what the original post is all
about. Bad behaviour is not solved by switching to different satellites and
different modes, it is solved by education, courtesy and the "gentle"
reminder.
Using PSK31 is a great idea, the 10m uplink is the real issue for the
non-use of PSAT-1. Should I say "fatal flaw"? Not many of us have a 10m
dipole ready as part of our satellite setup (stationary or mobile for that
matter). It is time that we move on and promote digital modes on
frequencies that are actually used within the allocated satellite bands and
even better on higher bands where we have allocations and we don't use
them. How about a PSK-31 Cubesat within VHF/UHF? That is a nice mobile
challenge combining portable TX ability with a tablet :-) and some new
apps. Let's think outside of the box for a while... and leave 10m on the
ground where it belongs LOL :-)
Food for thought,
Stefan, VE4NSA

Are there any updated TLEs for the launch that just happened in Hawaii?

Bummer!
I didn't have a chance to watch or check status.

My FoxTelem program never crashes, however it never decodes anything either.
I can have a perfect overhead pass and using my FCD+ it sometimes will
actually get an eye but never decode anything. The find satellite or Doppler
lock is pretty much worthless here. The same setup on AO73 gets solid
Doppler locks and decodes packets all the way across the sky. I am always
bewildered to hear other users saying they are getting 45 packets or so from
AO85. All the rocket science should be out of the way and this part should
be pretty straight forward.

As an aside, the FoxTelem program for the Mac requires you to downgrade from
the latest Java to V6 - I?d love to work use the app but don?t want to have
to replace the latest Java with a lesser less secure version. I know it?s
an issue with OS X and am sure the authors would prefer it wasn?t so but w/o
some kind of workaround I?m reluctant to mess with it.
