 Robert,
Thanks for posting this information/reminder.
I was hoping that things would calm down after the Election andthe AMSAT-BB
could be safely taken off my Spam List. It nowis, but a return to the
constant griping has got to stop. KYFC

I'm helping a friend get his satellite station set up.

He's using an LVB Tracker, G5500 and SatPC32. I'm working on the rotor
setup. The setting for 450 degree AZ rotation is greyed out. I can't
select it and I'd like to do that. I do have flip mode off.

I have to be missing something.

Mike, do you by chance have 180 deg EL selected?  You can't have both 180
and 450....  so 90/450 or 180/360 or 90/360.

Mike, make also sure that the? turning point of the azimuth rotor (menu
Rotor Setup)? is set to N. By default it is S.

Problem solved. I had to set "turning point of azimuth rotor" to N in
Rotor Setup. Was set to S.

Tnx to all that replied.

I happened to see this while looking for something else on Twitter, which I
do not log into and rarely look at.

So, donate away!

(This underscores why it is important not to prioritize social-media

Thanks for this note, Zach.   I figured that something like that must have
been happening.   The web server sends me messages when various things
happen, usually bad news like low disk space, heavy server load etc.   So
when I saw my inbox full of messages I was concerned that something was
broken.  But no!  The server was reporting that it was happily processing  a
bunch of $50 donations.

Readers are urged to continue this webserver stress test by sending more and
larger donations.

Hi All,

In the spirit of sharing & collaboration: I'd like to offer up my recent
work to develop a 3D printed 70 cm Lindy.  This leverages the excellent
article by AA2TX, striving to make the design significantly more
manufacturable.  In the share folder (link below) you'll find both design
files and descriptive project notes.

Constructive feedback to enhance the designs or clarify documentation is
certainly welcome.  While this effort produced a nicely-performing antenna,
I'm sure there are still opportunities for improvement.

Regards,

Curt / K7ZOO

dream of reaching that goal. 73, Rick WB3CSY

I try to keep Zach enthusiastic about making donations.
Every time he needs to order GOLF parts I tell him "hey, it's about time
for another of your generous donations to AMSAT isn't it?"? I call it
the EZ Payroll Deduction Donation.? EZ for me, mainly...? hihi

Yes, all donations are appreciated!? No matter the amount you can share,
every component counts.
