- To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
-
- I have a Kenwood TH-27A and TH-28A that I would like to use
- in Europe. Is it possible to Mod these radios to act like a
- "E" version? I.e. generate a 1750Hz tone during transmit?
- I don't care about switching back, since the radios
- will be in Europe for about three years.

- Thanks,

- The Monterey Bay Area PL on 2meters is 94.8
-
- Try 146.970 and 146.665 or 146.790
-
- There are other local repeaters in the area that the folks on the above
- frequencies will share with you. Always ask if anyone on frequency knows
- of a good repeater in the direction you are travelling. The locals always
- know the good ones...
-
- Do Not be confused by all of the repeaters that you hear from the San
- Jose area...as they play in the Monterey Bay Area.

- SB SAREX @ AMSAT $STS-59.016
- SAREX Keps 4/13 at 5:40 UTC
-
- Greenbelt, MD, 4/13/94 at 5:40 UTC
-
- The official SAREX element set at this time is GSFC-014. This element set
- was generated by Ron Parise, WA4SIR, of the Goddard Space Flight Center.
- Gil Carman, WA5NOM, reports that the predictions using GSFC-014 were 13
- seconds earlier than GSFC-005 as of 18:00 UTC on 4/12.
-
- The SAREX Working group has had several inquiries regarding the use of
- "older" element sets during the STS-59 mission. Daily trim burns are
- planned during this flight to keep the ascending node crossing to within
- 0.1 degree of the planned preflight Keps. Thus, for periods of time, some
- of the "older" keps are closer to the current orbiter state vector than the
- somewhat "newer" Keps. If you run a comparison of the various orbital
- elements produced thus far, they are all within 10 to 20 seconds of one
- another. Gil Carman reports that this same trim burn approach was used
- during the STS-9 mission which also carried Owen Garriott, W5LFL.
