Hi folks,
till a month ago I 've used the Kenwood TS-790E with a Trakbox attached to
it via the ACC1 connector.
I have passed to a Kenwood TS-2000X and have noticed that the ACC1
connector is not present on
This radio so now I am stuck how to connect the trakbox to it for the
satellite Doppler correction.
Has anyone used my same setup and can tell me how to make the cable between
the
Radio and the Trakbox?
I have also tried to look the TS-790E manual but it does not say about the
connections pin.
Anybody can help me?
Thanks in advance.

Uses a Standard USB-A to Micro-B cable or MicroSD card for programming - so

Phillip,
As Dave KB1PVH said, the answer is "no". The TH-D74 is not capable
of cross-band full-duplex operation for working FM satellites,
unlike the older TH-D72 which can do that. When you transmit from
one VFO or "band" on the TH-D74, the other VFO/"band" is muted.
I have written a bit about how I have used my TH-D74A on satellites,
and not just trying to use it with FM satellites, on the QRZ.com
satellite forum at:
https://forums.qrz.com/index.php?threads/kenwood-th
-d74a-for-satellite-work.540096/
I have used my TH-D74A on both SO-50 and AO-85 in FM, as the
downlink receiver when working SSB satellites like AO-73, FO-29,
and XW-2F (transmit radio was a Yaesu FT-817ND), and working
the orbiting packet digipeaters on the ISS (previously on 145.825
MHz, and now on 437.550 MHz) and NO-84 (when available).
Please e-mail me directly if I can be of further assistance with
the TH-D74A on satellites.

Does it still have the 6k something + wide SSB frontend like the 10+ year
old TH-F6a? I read Patrick's post about it and I don't remember any Kenwood
rep at Dayton say it would do full duplex. I think Kenwood really missed the
boat on this one.

Hi Jeff!
With the TH-D74, you get new features for receive filters. For SSB,
the high-cut value has possible options between 2.2 to 3.0 kHz. For CW
bandwidth, it can be specified values between 0.3 and 2.0 kHz. On
AM, the high-cut value can be between 3.0 and 7.5 kHz. This is, I
think, the sort of filtering that the TH-F6A sorely lacked.
Having this filtering makes the TH-D74's all-mode receiver work
reasonably well, especially as an SSB receiver for satellite
downlinks. I am comfortable with using my TH-D74A as an SSB
receiver in place of one of my FT-817NDs or an SDR receiver.
The TH-D74 also has an audio recording function, when a microSD
card is plugged into the radio. I used that to make recordings
of different passes I worked (FM, SSB, packet), and also testing
a Bluetooth headset with this radio. I posted those recordings
in the "TH-D74A" folder at http://dropbox.wd9ewk.net/ . If you want
to hear recordings from SSB satellites specifically, please
let me know and I can get you those file names.
I think Kenwood missed the mark a bit with this radio, not designing
it to have the cross-band full-duplex capability of the TH-D72
and TH-D7. Since the TH-D74A also operates on the 222 MHz band, it
is possible that Kenwood's engineers based the TH-D74 on the design
of the TH-F6A, but with lots of improvements and new features
that weren't possible with the older radio.

Hi Patrick, Well I?m glad there is filtering added to the SSB frontend. I
remember trying to use a TH-F6a to RX FO-20/29 years ago and the RX
bandwidth was a show stopper. The recording option sounds like a real plus
for portable ops...

updating the Keplerian elements.
If you are familiar with this program could you help Quirino? I am not
familiar with this program and I can't find anyone who has used SATSKED. I
see a reference on www.amsat.org in the satellite software area under MS-DOS
programs, Pacsat Programs, but I can't download any data from the link.
Quirino's email address is 6jzh@xxxxxx.xx He can read amsat-bb but is not
able to send messages???
Please read the following messages that he has sent me on this subject and
email him directly if you can help.

Mr RAY
Tnx for the callback
I'm OLD.man and don't have a great familiarity with digital, so You
understand why I use and tubes, DOS, istantrack and satsked..
I use amsat-bb for obtain keps and amsat bulletin, but I don't know how can
I use directly by me for a question of mine. I find SATSKED a great program
to use with Kansas city Tracker and Trakbox. In the past (KO 23) I used also
PBPG
With satisfaction for the easiness and even with satsked... Tell me how I
can ask to the amsat's friends OM.
TNX again Mr RAY for the kind answerback to my annoying question
