[amsat-bb] Re: Hell mode on vo-52

[Tony <dxdx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Charles,

Feld Hell mode works well compared to other modes that tend to be 
doppler-sensitive. Nino Porcino's Hellschreiber has a Satellite mode 
option that lets you monitor your own signal with a full-duplex sound 
card.

See -- http://xoomer.alice.it/aporcino/

Doppler can be tricky without some kind of automation, but I've used the 
Feld Hell mode successfully on everything from AO-10 to FO-29 with 
manual control. Of course, there's a lot of dial tweaking with mode J 
downlinks ;  ).

Will look for you on the next VO-52 pass.
