The plan is to have a Yaesu 857 for the uplink and a laptop/Funcube Pro+
for the downlink. I am still having issues with AO-73 and SatPC32, so I
will be manually correcting for Doppler.

Steve,

I have been making contacts on AO-73 the past two weeks with the same
setup.  I do have SatPC32 talking with HDSDR using Virtual Serial Ports
(VSP) just fine, but you will need to manually tune. It takes a little
practice.   Have fun!

I have used ICOM W-32 with good results. Some clean ones come up on ebay for
sale.

Hi Steve,

Well, I didn't find you but I did work K4FEG and heard NX9B, so that
makes Frank my first AO-73 contact.
Just wanted to say thanks then Steve, for stirring things up and getting
my head out of Fox and on the air!

I could hear Paul but never clearly. I have to do some more work I guess
because I could never hear myself.

Steve,

I heard a LSB signal briefly. If that was you, remember that the
transponder is inverting, so you should uplink in LSB to come out in USB.

Jerry - heard you right at your LOS, hope to work you on another pass!

73,

Paul, N8HM
