FO-20: The following is the current schedule for transponder operations:
ANALOG MODE:
23-Mar-94 7:52 -to- 30-Mar-94 8:15 UTC
6-Apr-94 6:45 -to- 13-Apr-94 7:10 UTC
20-Apr-94 7:35 -to- 27-Apr-94 7:55 UTC
11-May-94 6:54 -to- 18-May-94 7:20 UTC
Digital mode: Unless otherwise noted above.
[Kazu Sakamoto (JJ1WTK) qga02014@niftyserve.or.jp]
MIR: The packet call for MIR is R0MIR-1 and the operating frequency is
145.550 MHz. The crew usually has the Personal Messaging System
(PMS) running. If you hear voice operations ask for Victor, Yuri, or
Valeri. [VK3DFI]
AO-27: AMRAD-OSCAR-27 (AO-27) is up and going, and is said to be working
well. It is in popular use in Europe. The 436.800 MHz FM down-
link can be heard on a hand-held. Uplink is 145.850 MHz. It is
said to be only active in daylight passes. [G3IOR]
UFO: We have a UFO on 145.592 MHz sending data. It was first heard by
G3JQI at 18:50 UTC "dopplering" down until 18:55 UTC LOS on
16-MAR-94. [G3IOR]
The AMSAT NEWS Service (ANS) is looking for volunteers to contribute weekly
OSCAR status reports. If you have a favorite OSCAR which you work on a
regular basis and would like to contribute to this bulletin, please send
your observations to WD0HHU at his CompuServe address of 70524,2272, on
INTERNET at wd0hhu@amsat.org, or to his local packet BBS in the Denver, CO
area, WD0HHU @ W0LJF.#NECO.CO.USA.NOAM. Also, if you find that the current
set of orbital elements are not generating the correct AOS/LOS times at
your QTH, PLEASE INCLUDE THAT INFORMATION AS WELL. The information you
provide will be of value to all OSCAR enthusiasts.

I would like to use the ADC on the game port(joystick port) to digitize
processed (ie filter and other needed things) APT output with my old humble
386.Any known pitfalls or no no's??

Subject: DSP2232 and STEP Function
To: ham-space@ucsd.edu
In reply to your question:
"Just a quick question to those who have received the Dec 1993 upgrade for
the DSP2232. I was wondering if anyone has received any information with
respect to the step funtion for radio frequency control of doppler effect?
It seems to me that the funtion is non-operable when using PB ( KISS Mode )
and I wonder if so - what is it's purpose at least for the digital
satellites. I would like to hear from anyone who has more information as to
the funtion over what is in the manual - esp as to what the numbers signify
on the front of the unit.
My unit works fine with PB in KISS mode. Remember only modems 13 and 23
(the PSK modems) use the step function. The numbers +/- in the non-KISS
display indicate the number of 10Hz steps you are "off".
Does your DSP-2232 work with the steps when not in KISS mode? Make sure
it does before worrying about KISS mode.
