Great, thanks, I will try that today.

I suppose the main problem I'm having is, I'm giving Soundmodem
something to decode (I can see the trace in its waterfall) but it's not
responding to any of it. I indeed have the "non-AX25 filter" unselected
(it is not selected as default).

There were some other things in my Soundmodem settings that did not
agree with the instructions for DeorbitSail, that may have messed it up,
so I'll try again this morning during the next pass.

I saw some of these appear, with varying length values, but they
appeared when there was no actual signal. When I actually fed it a
signal, it didn't respond. So perhaps I've got Soundmodem set wrong.
Non-AX25 filter is off, but maybe it's something else.

I've looked at the DeorbitSail page so I'll see if my settings match
what's there. Thanks! Will report back.

I'm continuing to experiment by myself on this subject of receiving
telemetry data using an SDR dongle and software. I've appreciated all the
bits of information offered by the stations who are already up and running.

One thing I'm finding with software packet reception is that the software
"modem" or software "TNC" (i.e.: soundmodem) seems to expect packets with a
good checksum. Just a single bit-flip and I don't have data.

My approach at the moment is toward improving my downlink and then I'll see
how many more packets I'll find useful.

In soundmodem, I had "Bits Recovery" set to "SINGLE" initially, while
the DeorbitSail page seems to suggest it's more properly set to "NONE".
Not sure if that's significant, but your comment about flipped bits made
me suspect this. Anything's worth trying once.

The AX.25 implementations used in some cubesats do not implement the specs
for AX.25 destination address field encoding correctly. The last bit of the
last byte of the destination callsing (or digipeater) field should always
be 1 in order to indicate the end of the destination field, but some
implementations keep the bit as 0. This is the reason UZ7HO's soundmodem
says NON-AX25 frame. Soundmodem does pass the frame to the KISS interface
but any decoding software must be careful during the processing of the
destination callsign (by assuming there are no digipeaters).

Comparing the performance of the 1200 bps BPSK FUNcube-1 FEC encoding with
cubesats using AX.25 1200 bps BPSK makes me wander why in this day and age
we still use AX.25 for satellite links.

A small correction:

When I wrote destination callsign, I meant source (or digipeater) callsign.

Update: I'm looking at a pass right now, and am getting a signal, but
Soundmodem is just refusing to budge. Maybe the signal just isn't strong
enough?

Hi all:
A lot of us subscribe to both AMSAT and the Microwave reflectors... the
latter of which seems to have disappeared. I knew Tom was having some issues
with his provider, but it appears that "microwave" is off line. Test and
subscribe both bounce. Anybody have any idea what happened or if it still
alive?

A week or so ago I asked about mounting the Arrow Antenna on something
other than the very end of it.  I appreciated all of the great responses.
In the end, I decided to go with the Elk because I found it on eBay and
could save some money.  The pvc tubing the previous owner used is difficult
to turn and I'd like to correct that.  I tried Googling to see if simply
sanding the inner pipe a bit would help but I didn't get any results on
that search.  What have you done to make it so that the tubing is a easy to
adjust from horizontal to vertical but still is tight enough not to shift
on its own?

Thanks,

Hi Folks,

  I have just set AO-73/FUNcube into permanent transponder mode. Plan, as
usual, is to switch it back to education mode on Sunday PM UTC.

  Enjoy the transponder and have a FUN weekend.

The APRS space channel was designed to support user applications that need
satellite connectivity. All of them use UI packets since they are the most
efficient (all data in one packet):



1)      APRS user message contacts (texting and QSOs)

2)      Remote position and status reporting of ham travelers beyond range
of the terrestrial network

3)      Remote sensor data experiments (ocean buoys or WX data  projects)



Generally, I have learned that trying to criticize how others use ham radio
is a dead end.  So instead we try to nudge them towards proper operating
practice such as the guidelines on how to use the ISS digipeater:
http://aprs.org/iss-faq.html



The recommendations have always been:

* live operators use a beacon rate of 1 beacon per minute and live QSO
packets as required.

* Remote travelers (live) should set one packet every 2 minutes (live and
moving).

* For non-moving travelers and unattended data sources, we recommend one
packet every 5 minutes.



These rates can show good success for a dozen live users, a half dozen live
mobiles and nearly 2 dozen unattended beacons per pass and this is about
the average load.  Though people would see higher suggess if we could get
those dead-woods to cut back their rates.



Yes, it is sad that some people transmit unattended beacons via the ISS at
1 minute rates.  So what we need to encourage those unattended stations to
cut back to one packet every 5 minutes.  At that rate, their load  is
insignificant but they have a good chance of showing up on the heard log (
http://ariss.net) once a day and they exercise and demonstrate the utility
of the channel for remote Amateur Radio Applications.



So It would seem OK for a few policeman to look for 1 minute unattended
beacons and contact them to read the above FAQ page as their responsibility
for using the channel.

That is what it is now Bob.  It is people on the ground doing the bleeping
and they are using it as a pseudo bent pipe transponder doing demod/remod
constantly unattended.  is that how it was intended to be used?



Tell me how to stop this behavior without turning off UI?  Or maybe you
feel this is not a real impediment to comms.  The originator of this thread
seems to feel it is.
