published every week and is made available for unlimited distribution.
* ITAMSAT PROBLEM *
===================
Earlier this month, the PSK modulation on the primary ITAMSAT transmitter
became more and more difficult to decode. A residual carrier and lower
output power seem to indicate a failure in the PSK balanced modulator,
being worse at the current low power setting. Increasing the power level
makes the demodulation better but is not acceptable due to power budget
constraints. Ground controllers decided to switch to the secondary PSK
trasmitter on 435.822 MHz. The first two passes over Italy confirmed the
correct operation of the spacecraft and WOD are being taken to analyze the
performance of the satellite in this new configuration. The BBS is working
as usual and status bulletins are uploaded to the satellite.

* CLEMENTINE IMAGES AVAILABLE *
===============================
Recent images of the Moon that were downlinked by the Clementine spacecraft
are available by ftp or email across the Internet. For those with ftp
access, simply ftp to clementine.s1.gov [128.15.32.9] and look in the
directories under pub/clementine/images. For those with email only, send
a message to ftpmail@clementine.s1.gov with a blank subject line and text
of "help" only. The email server can provide directory listings and
uuencoded binary files such as GIF images.

In response to requests, the Mode-S session now includes 2 MAs beacon at
the start. Mode-B is unaffected. The revised schedule is:

I say: I suppose it depends on which legend re: the origin of the term
"ham" as it applies to amateur radio comes from. Several of the legends
indicate the term is from either initials or an acronym, and both would be
properly capitalized.

Any difference in specs between a 2N2222 and a 2N2222A xsistor?
(And why did I capitalize the N and A?) An xmtr I'm building
calls for 2N2222A's but all I have are dozens of 2N2222's (from
dumpster diving behind the Engineering Department's building -
amazing what they throw out).
I imagine the `A' version is the new and improved model.
I say (now on the real subject): The "A" devices have a different gain
characteristic, (hFE @ 10v 10ma 50-325 for the 2222, 75-325 for the "A"),
higher minimum breakdown voltages, lower VCE sat voltage. In most cases, it
won't matter which you use. The chips are the same and the manufacturer
screens for part type selection. Since the 2N2222 minimums are lower than
those for the 2N2222A, A 2N2222A can always sub for a 2N2222, a 2N2222 may
not always work for a 2N2222A. Both devices were registered at the same
time, so it is not a matter of "new and improved". Check a Motorola small
signal spec book or MIL-S-19500/255 if you really need to know the finer
points.

Phfffft! The phase flatness through the audio phase shift networks
used in amateur phasing SSB rigs was much worse than any phase
distortion in a filter rig. The audio phasing network had to cover
octaves while the crystal filter only has to work over a tiny fraction
of an octave.
Amplitude flatness, low frequency response, and total bandwidth were
often greater with phasing generators. That gave a more AM-like sound
to phasing generated SSB.

We solved that problem years ago without need of DSP. We just
put a delay line in the main channel so the AGC has time to react
before the audio gets out of the box. It used to be a mercury
column, but today it's often a bucket brigade shift register.

Not true. A phasing-type SSB generator specifically depends on a
90 degree phase difference between the two channels. If the phase
flatness were bad, you would get terrible unwanted sideband supression.
Same thing with amplitude flatness. The phase shift network's two
channels must be matched to within a fraction of a dB to get good sideband
suppression.
A typical SSB crystal filter has a couple dB peak-to-peak ripple across
the passband with similar ripples in the group delay. It is easy to
do much better than that with a phasing-type exciter.

Are there any repeaters left in this country that just repeat, including
no musical tones or beeps when you drop your carrier? I miss the old
days when all one heard was a nice solid kurchunk of the repeater
receiver's squelch tail quickly followed by a second squelch tail from
my receiver (the repeater carrier would drop off after 1-2 seconds).
This seemed to be the way most of the public safety repeaters were
also set up (particulary the California Division of Forestry
repeaters back when I was a fireman in the early 70s).
Gary: I'll be disappointed if your repeater beeps.
