[amsat-bb] Falconsat With Wisp and Kenwood TS-200 Internal TNC

[Vincenzo Mone]

Hi folks,

Is there any one that uses the Kenwood  TS-2000 and Wisp

Using the internal TNC to RX/TX on Falconsat-3?

I cannot get success. I can RX but cannot TX since there is the signal.

Please can somebody give me the correct settings.

Actually I have the following settings in the radio:

 

Menu 46 SUB

Menu 47 9600Bps

Menu 48 TNC BAND

Menu 55 On 

 

On the main band I have set the TX frequency 145.840 FM for the Uplink and

On the Sub Band the RX Frequency 435.103 FM for the Downlink. 

The PTT is set on the maid band.

When the MSPE program starts, I can see the STA and CON LEDs flashing for
three times

That indicates the radio is gone in kiss mode.

I can see the data coming in, but when I go to request the directory or a
message the radio does not

Go in TX since there is no signal on the  SUB band but it TX on the SUB Band
instead to TX on the Main one.

Vice versa if while I am receiving, I go to request the directory or a
message the radio does not go in TX since there is no signal on the  SUB
band,

But if I entry in the menu 46 and change for a second from SUB to MAIN the
radio goes TX and it goes on  the correct Band the Main

Which is set for the Uplink then I have to switch back the Menu 46 from MAIN
to SUB again otherwise I will not get anymore the incoming data.

Please what am I doing wrong or which settings is wrong in the radio?

Please any help will be really appreciated.
