Mark,
Didn?t you also experiment with the Windows audio input setting?

worked better at a lower value, like 4-5?

Hi Steve,
Yes, make this number 4!
4-I find under Windows 7 with the FCDP+ a Recording Device volume setting of
"3" gives me a decent noise floor (between -75 and -100) on FoxTelem.
Getting the noise floor level down to a reasonable level is important.
73,
Mark N8MH

That's only about 14,150km. Nice QSO, but not quite Claudio's 16,337km
between Italy and Queensland.

Dear all,
We just received a confirmation for the upcoming test of the FM Repeater on
IO-86 Satellite (LAPAN-A2/ORARI),
that would be conducted this weekend:
- Saturday, 21 Nov 2015, at 02:30 UTC - 04:50UTC
- Sunday, 22 Nov 2015, at 02:55 ? 05:00 UTC
Voice Repeater info:
- Uplink 145.880 Mhz tone 88,5
- Downlink 435.880 Mhz
AMSAT Keplerian data
0 IO-86
1 40931U 15052B?? 15316.15776324? .00001070? 00000-0? 60618-4 0? 9994
2 40931?? 6.0030? 69.3893 0012877 275.6206? 84.2533 14.76374433? 6653
As the satellite was designed for emcomm using handheld radio (the reason of
the relatively high-power downlink),
we would like all reports of portable ops (handheld radio using some sort of
portable directional antenna,
ie. CJU / IOio / Moxon / Arrow / etc).

Thanks for the info. Is this repeater planned to be commissioned for
regular use later, or is that not yet determined? (I ask because I will
likely not be able to participate because of foul weather....)
