What would be required (from the point of view of paper work, logistics,
approvals, etc.) to replace the current ISS packet radio TNC by a device
that would implement some more efficient digital communications? The device
could be a digipeater, but employing strong FEC and a more modern
modulation and framing structure and perhaps some better scheme for channel
access. Perhaps something similar to ngham.
https://github.com/skagmo/ngham
With FEC and higher speed, we could accommodate many more users on a single
pass. A dedicated software application on the ground would implement the
modem and process information -- separating different types of messages in
different screens, providing a chat like mode for real-time communications,
automatically forwarding APRS packets, etc.
Am I day dreaming?

Hi Edson,
You're not daydreaming that much. The BEESAT satellites have a
digipeater using the Mobitex-NX protocol, which has some form of FEC.
Many other satellites on the Amateur bands transmit telemetry using
strong FEC. For instance, AAUSAT-4 uses an r=1/2, k=7 convolutional code
and (255,223) Reed-Solomon with CCSDS scrambling.
Support and experimentation for these and many other protocols is very
easy today using SDR.
73,
Dani.

There is already work being done to replace the old Ericsson HT with a
customized Kenwood D710. Not sure what digital setup will be
implemented.

Typically, I enter a separate log entry for each grid in ACLog. I
personally am not a fan of the approach but it's the only way to track
it correctly.
The bad thing is when ACLog fetches from LoTW, it will only recognize
the first grid of the grid line and won't mark the second grid (log
entry) as being received. You have to do it manually. I keep meaning to
email the author but get side tracked.

Andrew, I use VMware Fusion and Windows on my Mac. The Mac software is OK,

Matthew,
To add to Clayton and Paul?s excellent advice, here is how I?m handling
grid line operations in ACLog.
No further developments in Scott?s software for grid line operation.
ACLog does not directly support working from a grid line or working a
station on a grid line. There are work arounds:
If you are on the grid line, most of the work is handled by TQSL which is
used by ACLog to sign and upload your log. Using TQSL, create a Station
Location for the grid intersection. Enter your contacts into ACLog, then
upload them to LoTW using this special Station Location.
I?ve renamed one of the four Other fields to be Rover and put the grid or
grids where I was located for a contact when I?m not working from home.
This helps me keep my entries organized.
Note that ACLog doesn?t understand roving and will add the grids of the
stations you worked into the awards totals.
If you work a station that is on a grid line, then you need to enter the
contact twice for operation on a line and four times for operation from a
corner.
Type the contact using the correct time and one of the grids and press
Enter to add it to the database. Then choose the Recall tag on the ACLog
menu bar (at the top of the window, starts with File, Edit, Settings,
etc.) which will fill all of the fields from that first grid. Add one
minute to both the Time On and Time Off and change the grid to the second
grid, then press Enter. You have to change the time as LoTW treats the
second contact with the same station at the same time as a correction, not
an addition.
Repeat two more times if you contacted someone operating from a corner.
Upload the contacts to LoTW using your the correct Station Location
(probably your home station QTH). When you download from LoTW in the
future, only one of your confirmed contacts will be flagged as received.
ACLog ignores the information downloaded from LoTW that confirms the
additional grids.
Log into the LoTW website, and click on the Your QSOs tab. Click on the
Most Recent QSLs button. Click on Details for the contact with the
station on the grid line. Under Worked Station, you?ll find Grid and a
listing of the grids where the other station was located. If you see two
or four grids there, you have a confirmed contact from those grids.
Now return to ACLog and edit the records for that contact that don?t show
L under the Received column. Manually add the L to that record.
I hope this helps.

Allow me to amend: MacDoppler and Dog Park are excellent Mac developers and
their software is impressive and well-supported.

Andrew, I use VMware Fusion and Windows on my Mac. The Mac software is OK,
but Amateur Radio is mostly Windows as you've seen.

The only suggestion I would make is
+ Add a daily schedule of satellite passes that can be emailed or saved to a
.html file available via a web server
I see UDP output which I will investigate
Loving the interface very good
Can MacDoppler drive my SDR Dongle on freq ?
