[amsat-bb] Re: Tuning

[Andrew Glasbrenner]

If you are not controlling both with a computer, then try to just tune the 
higher of the two frequencies, which is the uplink on VO-52. Only tune the 
receive when you have to in order to copy the other station.

Take a look at http://www.amsat.org/amsat/features/one_true_rule.html
