>> After a lengthy hiatus from the birds, I’m finally moving towards getting back on the air. Today’s first order of business was to upgrade to the latest version of SatPC32 to use with my Icom IC-910H.

>> After installing the new software and updating Keps, I was shocked to see how long the list of available amateur birds had grown to. I “read the mail” on the AMSAT BB and the journal but can’t possibly keep track of everything in the sky these days.

>> Can someone give me the “Satellite for Dummies” version of which birds i want to track? I’m not interested in doing a lot of digital work just yet—APRS through ISS is about as far as I’ve gotten on that trail. Mostly interested in SSB/CW and FM for now.
