[amsat-bb] Re: FW: SATPC32 & AO73 question

[Alan]

Ted,

Some questions. 
 
Does this problem only happen on AO-73, or all of them?  
In the Radio Setup, do you have Satellite Mode (Satelliten Modus) checked?
Is the SAT mode light on under CAT control?
Do you have the FT-847 TRACK mode selected?  If so, turn it off as in conflicts with the CAT control.

Are you using a USB dongle for a serial port?  What is the CAT port delay?

73s,

Alan

<Hi all,
<
< 
<
<In spite of my usual ineptness with this program, I have 
<managed to have it
<talking to my FT-847, downloaded the keps for AO73 and appear 
<to be tracking
<it!!
<
< 
<
<However, I can't seem to get the radio to hold the up/dn 
<frequencies in the
<proper VFO's. I start out with the uplink showing in VFOA, but 
<after a min
<or so the frequencies swap and I have to use the a><b button 
<to get them
<back.
<
< 
<
<Am I missing a setting?
<
< 
<
<Any help appreciated
<
< 
<
<And Happy Thanksgiving to all
<
<

<73, Ted
