Hi All,

Yes, the 2 lines for SO-50 as below are correct.

SO-50,67.0,$3F,1
SO-50,74.4,$3E,3

As per the SubTone.SQF file:

; SO-50: Before this satellite can be worked it has to be opened by a 
74.4 Hertz
; "burst" tone. Therefore the file contains an additional line with  
data for
; this tone frequency.  To set this tone frequency with SatPC32 click 
the "T"
; control until it shows  "T2". Then switch to TX for a few seconds. Click
; the "T" again until it shows "T1". That will set the tone frequency 
back to
; 67.0 Hertz.

73
