I'm sure I've asked this question if the group in the past, but
periodically it's worth asking again. I'm curious if anyone is using these
fine radios with transverters in the birds. If so is there compatible
tracking software? It's a shame if not as the Elecraft quality and line
including the K3 and companion transverters seems to offer great promise
for satellite use.

HDSDR can also work well via CAT control if you use the free Virtual Serial
Port Emulator software. There is some issue with that program and 64 bit
windows. For me o0n my old XP box, it works fairly well with quirks. I can
move HDSDR and SATPC32 moves with it. The key is that VSPE sets up a pair
of serial cables and you use either side of the pair configured to the two
programs and they talk bi-directionally. I am not a pro at this but it does
seem to work. DDE will only allow one way from SatPC32 to radio.

The CAT protocol is compatible with Kenwood transceivers, so it's
possible that SatPC32 would work fine with them.

At approximately 0111 UTC 12-Feb-2016, I was monitoring a wide spectrum in
the area of 460 Mhz in hopes of seeing a signal with doppler movement that
might correspond to the TLE track of the KMS-4 satellite launched by North
Korea.
A very strong signal appeared up near 465.985 and tracked as you would
expect. Since the signal strength and doppler movement correlated nicely
to the track on Orbitron, I suppose there is a decent chance that I was
actually receiving KMS-4.
Naturally I forgot to record the IF until well through the pass, but I
don't really expect to be able to decode the signal anyway. I'm not even
sure if there was anything but a carrier, to be honest.
On the outside chance that I did see anything on this pass, I was recording
the screen and have uploaded the video to YouTube. Orbitron is very small
on the right side as I wanted to have as much area as possible to watch for
a signal in HDSDR.
The max elevation on the pass was 55 degrees. Antenna was a fixed,
omni-directional QFH built for 432 Mhz. The radio was the SDRPlay RSP.
If anyone would like to see what the signal looked & sounded like, the
video is at: https://youtu.be/9JiEyUM-8U4 (please jump to the 4:40 mark
where the signal first appears)
Oh, and sorry about the manual tuning... not knowing the frequency
beforehand, I did not have the software setup to track the doppler
automatically.

Very good point, but not having full duplex hasn't stopped a lot of

I have 2 k3's and have not been successful at getting SATPC32 to control
them both. The kenwood protocol and selection will work on 1 radio but not

Steve,
We have a licensed Virtual Audio Cable that the Fox Team has used for
testing both Fox-1 (via over the air telemetry) and FoxTelem for about a
year and a half.
It performs very well, it is our "standard" for testing.
Be aware that the demo version of VAC has a low volume audio
announcement added to the audio it is transporting, about its name or
that it's a demo version (not sure exactly what it says) that plays once
in a while and that will mess up your FoxTelem decoding.
There are other options available, perhaps at low/no cost, but since you
asked specifically about VAC I thought I would let you know our experience.

Hi Steve,
Not sure if you are asking about VAC the specific software, or generically.
I have version 4.14
running here, and it is working very well. I use if for several other
programs as well. Optimum
setup might not be intuitively obvious, but there are some guides out there.
VB-Cable is also widely used. I ran it on another machine, and did not find
any practical difference.
Much less detailed setup, which may or may not be good. :)
73s,
Alan
