[amsat-bb] Tracking SSB Birds

[Coy Johnson]

Hello: My name is Coy, Call, K5BCN    EM34
I just got into Satellites  about 5 weeks ago.
I have really been enjoying the FM Birds, but having Trouble Tracking the SSB Birds.
I have A new Icom 9700 Radio.
The Birds seem to Just run off and leave me . My radio won’t Track fast enough.
I open the Cat window and put the Speed on X10, and that helped some, but still not fast enough.
As you can already see that I’m new to this, But would like to work the SSB Birds.
I need to talk to someone who has an Icom 9700 , that can track the SSB Birds.
I’m using SATPC32.
I would like any help I can get.
I do Belong to AMSAT
I’m having fun, but would be more fun If I could Track the SSB Birds.
Thanks   73’s    Coy  K5BCN     EM34
