[amsat-bb] FT847 satellite power output problem : solved

[ingejack at cox.net]

Are you using Satpc32 ?? If yes then check your COM PORT in SATPC32... Also Baud rate should be 57600 for the FT847..
restart your SATPC32 and try the FT847 again ... 
I am using the FT847 and have no problems with my power out even if not using SATPC32.. 
Is your Microphone plugged in and tightened ?? I once could not get my FT847 to transmit due to a short in the Microphone plug..   That's all I can think of  73  JACK/KC7MG
