@K7AGE @arrl Do you have an operating schedule of when you may be on sats? Any linear sats?

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

@IcomAmericaInc IC-7300 was my first Icom. Way ahead of the 991. Sold all of my Yaesus and haven’t looked back.

Aurora over central Illinois tonight!

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

@K7AGE It will also work for SSB and FT8 if you don’t have horizontal antennas for those bands.

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

@dtabor I believe sending rr73 will result in it stop sending, but rrr will send until you receive the 73. This will result in more confirmations I think. The other station may not see your rr73 and keep sending and maybe you don’t hear them again and you auto logged it and they don’t.

@paul_vk6 @IcomAmericaInc Where can I get a mug?

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

@KB5FHK_Tom Has this one ever worked on digital modes? Asking because I’m leaning towards an issue (setting) on the rig. It acts like the rig isn’t listening to the audio from the usb port. It still could be windows, but that’s my feeling. Since the RX works ok.

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

@KB5FHK_Tom Ok, so we can probably rule out the rig at this point, and shift focus back to windows. The normal audio settings are junk, I like to go into the old way. I know you are on 11, but at the moment I don’t have access to an 11 machine to find out where that is.

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

@KB5FHK_Tom Menu 072, data port select is USB? That’s the other setting on the rig I was looking for.

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

@KB5FHK_Tom Can you RX ok? Might double check the rig settings to make sure it’s on usb-d (or data) mode and that the rig is listening on usb port for audio while on that mode. I’m not sure what settings those are called on the Yaesu but that might help.

@W6KSR Trustee doesn’t need to be present, just need permission.

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

Good opening to FL from IL on 2m.

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

@N4AKV_ I have most of it recorded.

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

@N4AKV_ @KE9AJ @ac9o_Paul I could use fn66. :)

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

@N4AKV_ I missed this today, will you be back in this location anytime soon?

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

@KN2K1 @randy_ND0C Congratulations!

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

I’m still looking for K2G on satellite.

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

Does anyone have a schedule for K2G on sat? Down to the last one.

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

@NU1U_ant Any other linear passes for the day?

[Nigel KB9RUG @kb9rug]

@MikeN8MR There might be a typo on the first entry. :) I thought you had it right over the air.
