[amsat-bb] Re: SatPC32 not switching modes on 910H

[Erich Eichmann]

Hi Jeff;
the REV/NOR parameter in Doppler.SQF does not switch the radio's tracking 
mode (Revers/Normal),
but the tracking direction of SatPC32. The setting is important only  is 
with SSB sats. If you tune the VFO knob, for example,  10 KHz up the program 
will tune the TX frequency also 10 KHz up if the parameter is NOR and 10 KHz 
down, if the parameter is REV. With FM sats the setting is meaningless 
because these sats work on fix channels. The  frequency changes by the 
automatic Doppler correction change always in the opposite direction, 
regardless of the setting in Doppler.SQF.
73s, Erich, DK1TB
