Re: [amsat-bb] wisp

[Mark <ku7z@xxxxxxxxx>]

Don, running WISP, 847 and 2232 here with a G5400-B rotator.  I have 
rotor set to park and rotor type set to level 1. It works fine 98% of 
the time.  I have had the condition you describe occur several times. 
What causes it, I have no idea.  One note tho, now that I think of it. 
It has not happened since I upgraded the mother board over a year ago to 
a Pentium IV 1.2 ghz.  Running Windows 98se.  Try the park setting and 
perhaps run thru the rotator setup procedure, but try a changing the 
values up or dwn a couple of degrees and see if that may pull it out of 
a value that causes it.  Just a thought.
