Meteor 3-5 APT is off too. APT-frequency of Meteor 2-21 changed from 137.40 MHz to 137.85 MHz, but the signal is weak as always. As Meteor 3-5 is off, old NOAA-9 now is the best source for good vis-images. +------------------------------------------+ |Peter Henne (peter.henne@gmd.de) | | (henne@gmd.de) | |German Nat.Research Center.f.Comp.Science | |D-53754 St.AUGUSTIN, Germany | +------------------------------------------+ ------------------------------ Date: 30 May 1994 07:23:49 GMT From: ihnp4.ucsd.edu!usc!nic-nac.CSU.net!charnel.ecst.csuchico.edu!olivea!inews.intel.com!ilx018.iil.intel.com!ilx049.iil.intel.com!dbraun@network.ucsd.edu Subject: Gear for starting satellite station To: ham-space@ucsd.edu In article <2978870298.0.wk02593@worldlink.com>, "Walter K.

One thing I was wondering: Is it worthwhile to have 70cm CW/SSB transmit capability, or is a 70cm receive converter suffcient? I know that you can work AO-13 with the 70cm uplink, but that satellite won't be around much longer, and I don't know which other satellites are actually used in the "70cm up - 2M down" analog mode. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Doug Braun Intel Israel, Ltd.

Tel: 011-972-4-655069 dbraun@inside.intel.com "Partly as a reaction against the increasingly grubby image of punk and partly because of Paul Weller of The Jam's enthusiasm for sharp 60's beat styles, 1979 wittnessed a mod revival. Largely local to London, this consisted principally of swarms of aggressive young mods parading down Caranaby Street (once the home of 60's fashion but now a tourist trap) wearing period parkas decorated with mod insignia, looking for trouble." ------------------------------ Date: 29 May 1994 22:59:48 GMT From: ihnp4.ucsd.edu!swrinde!pipex!sunic!news.funet.fi!nntp.hut.fi!vipunen.hut.fi!jsi@network.ucsd.edu Subject: V4.2b of OH5IY's MS S/W To: ham-space@ucsd.edu V4.2b of OH5IY's meteor scatter software is available at ftp.funet.fi: /pub/ham/vhf-work/mssof42b.zip A bug found in transmit mode of v4.2 has been fixed in v4.2b (The program moved to "calls only" when moving from "report" to "R report" stage. This can be overcomed in v4.2 by using the "text input" (F7) at this stage). V4.2b contains also msdata files of this year's April Lyrids and Eta Aquarids meteor showers. -- Jukka OH6DD jsi@hut.fi ------------------------------ End of Ham-Space Digest V94 #140 ******************************
