Wouldn't a big gun with no PLL capture the receiver and prevent it from
coming on?

Hi all,

seems half Europe had the same problem with this WX-1 evening pass.

Only the big guns (UR5BFX, IW4DVZ, SV1EEK, HB9OAB) had more or less success
- but I heard only one successful QSO between Francesco (IW4DVZ) and Nikolai
(UR5BFX) at the begin of our pass. No more other contacts till LOS :-(

Hi,

I was unable to open the uplink with my Yaesu FT-847. The PL tone was
set 67.0 Hz but unable to open the uplink channel.

During the pass I tryed the following.

- Checked Subtone.SQF file twice SatPC32 (XW-1,67.0,$3F,1)
- Checked Doppler.SQF (XW-1,435675,145825,FM,FM,NOR,0,0,Repeater-BBS)
- Restarted SatPC32
- Switched of and on the Yaesu FT-847
- Did a manual setup via menu option 12 for the tone frequentie
- Used FMN on the uplink

Nothing worked :(

There where only three or four stations active during this pass
and that makes me wonder if I was the only one with tone problems?

I did receive some BBS Packets:

BJ1SA-12>BBSTAT>UI,C,F0:
Open BJ1SA-12:0

BJ1SA-12>BBSTAT>UI,C,F0:
Open BJ1SA-12:0


Maybe beter luck next time
