[amsat-bb] Linux, K2 & transverters, SDR Play

[Ron VE8RT]

  As I have a K2 and DEM 432-28 transverter, it might not take much
more to get on mode B.  My preference is to use Linux OS, but how well
does G Predict work with a K2 and transverter combination?  Is anyone
doing it?  On the receive side, for duplex, a SDR Play 1A receiver is
what I'd like to use.  There again I'm unfamiliar with SDR receiver
control, it wasn't apparent in the rig control library of Gpredict, but
I'm getting the idea that rig control works with the SDR software I use
on the SDR Play not directly with the hardware.

  Anyone using this or a similar combination?
