Subject: AEA DSP-1232 problem
After some initial frustration, I have been able to get the STEP
function on my AEA DSP-1232 multi-mode controller to work with
modem 13 (Pacsat). Now, my question is this. While waiting
to acquire the satellite, that is *before* the DCD light is
active, the DSP unit continuously pulses the mic frequency
change line. Short of adding a switch in the freq control line
is there a way to avoid this. It seems like the STEP function
should require the modem to hear a frequency error AND hear a
carrier before is starts changing the frequency.
Additionally, when the radio (Yaesu FT-736R) transmits, if a
freq stepping pulse arrives during the short time the radio
is transmitting, the frequency is changed by 100 Hz since
that is the smallest tuning increment while in the FM mode.
Since the DSP unit thinks that it has stepped the VFO by 10Hz
the modem jumps way off frequency. Does anyone have a
workaround for this?
Thanks in advance,
Bob Houghton

Ed,
Listen for Lionel VE7BQH and the 2 Meter EME net on Saturday mornings.
I think they would start about 9 or 10AM PDT on a frequency of 14.345
MHz.
If you would like a full listing of EME capable hams call the BBS at (704)
284-4854 (I forget the name). You will fing alot of EME related stuff
including the current directory there.
Good Luck,
Terry KJ7F DN-13

Message:
Reading through the Kep lists, I keep seeing satellites that are
unknown to me. In the list group "OSCAR", I see UO-11. In the list
group "Micros", I see UO-14 and 22828. Under the list group "Misc.",
I see POSAT and GRO. I know these last two aren't amateur
satellites, but I curious anyway. Can anyone shed some light on
these? If the first three are active, what are the up- and down-link
frequencies and the operational modes?

Gary,
GRO is the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. If I am not mistaken, UO is equivalent
to RS ? 22828 is just a NORAD object number for perhaps a new satellite but I do not know what that one is.

UO-11 UoSat is an Experimental satellite from England. There are no
Uplink Frequencies listed for this satellite. I cant seem to locate the
description of the purpose of the satellite right now. The Down link
frequencies are. 145.826, 435.025, 2401.50. I think this is a telemetery
bird with Pictures as a primary component of that data stream..
Micros are the"Microsats" these are store and forward packet satellites.
POSAT is a Comercial/Ham satellite. Most of the time it is operating in
the Comercial mode. Check 435.250 & 435.280Dn, 145.925 & 145.975Up.
UO-14 ? I don't have a listing for that satellite. There is OSCAR 21 or
RS-14 which is a regular u/V mode satellite (Mode B).
