RE: [amsat-bb] Echo TLE copy

["A.J. Farmer" <ajfarmer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I used MixW on this last pass and got constant data, but I'm not sure which
mode I should be choosing.  The "PacSat" mode is not an option in MixW so I
basically went through them all just to try them out.  When set to QPSK31, I
got a lot of random characters which verified I was receiving okay, but they
were not Hex which is what I was expecting.  What mode should I be using?

Thanks!

I don't have an 847 except on my wish list.  I'm using a TS-790 with a tap
off of the sub-rx discriminator.

Yes to both 2 and 3.

the
> level slider bar at?

My sound card only has a mic input.  I know convential wisdom says it won't
work but in my case it does.

> 5. The Setting for G3RUH Number is 15 , what is yours?

15.  I did set the DCD setting to its far left position.

> 5. Any entries in the Rx high freq gain other than 0?

No, I left them at the 0 default values.

> 6. Can you get MixW to decode a D7 or D700 set at 9600?

I don't have handy access to those rigs so I  haven't tried.
