Tnx for QSO and for fast confirmation via LOTW - hope to meet you again - 73 de Johannes

Hello Richard,
I use this progamm for many years and in the options menue you can activate special "fields" for SAT-use.
You can export the Log as ADIF or CSV and also send it "direct" to LOTW. The SAT-Mode and name of satellite etc. are correctly recogniced and accepted by LOTW (and eQSL and Clublog....).
Thus I think it's a very nice programm which fulfills all MY needs and so I reccomend it. And it's freeware.
But I also recommend you to read the instruction manual before use
73, happy new year de Johannes

Hello Wolfgang,
obviously you did not read the instruction manual
In the options menue you can activate different things - one of the features are special fields for Sat-use: e.g. Sat-name, Sat mode.....
I feel comfortable with this (in my opinion) very good freeware program.

I am using XMLOG (works fine with Sat-logging e.g. for LOTW, eQSL....)

Hello Robert,
I have to disagree. The most important thing in a HF-pileup is the 2nd receiver (see all the top HF-radio models !). The monitoring of the pileup is essential for success in a pileup. If you have an experienced DX-OP it is not adversely when you can monitor all the pileup (neither for the DX nor for the caller). You have to observe the habits of the DX-OP and than you have to call on the "right" frequency. (As it should be in HAM radio 99% listening and 1% calling).
As VE4SW already said full duplex (monitoring your own signal) and split is not a contradiction !
For QO-100 I use an analogue receiver to listen to the DX and in addition a SDR to watch all the pileup and to listen (and constantly monitor) my own transmission.
Thus I still can not see "two rules fighting" or any reason why working split via QO-100 (in certain cases) should be omitted.
But lets look forward for an offical statement from AMSAT.

Hello,
did you listen to the simplex pileup ? Could you copy the DX-Station in the crowd of calling HAMs ?
No - you couldn't copy the DX. Thus the DX has to wait until everybody calms down and then can reply to one station.
In split mode the DX has its "own" QRG and will be heard and can answer to a call sign, even when many stations are calling. Thus the QSO rate is much, much higher (higher efficiency).
Thus in my opinion split mode for rare DX with huge pileup is also useful via QO-100.

if you are looking for a remote conrol solution, you could take a raspery and connect it via serial with the Upconverter and via WLAN with your home network. Than you can (e.g. via TeamViewer) remote controll the raspery and with a terminal program you can communicate with your upconverter and switch between TX and RX (and also on/off, forward and refleted power, IF readout and IF change....)..

Was kostet so eine Antenne und wo kann man sie kaufen?

Yup 9M62MY is West Malaysia (special event station)

Hello Arthur, you are right, but I doubt that this missing L in the VCC1 line is leading to an under-performance of the PA.
It is just less "protection" against unwanted HF in the VCC1.

Hello Robert,
thank you - sorry for my mistake - it was so yellow like the moon ;-).
Then we have to look a little bit south east of the QO-100 earth-projection point for a 2,4 GHZ EME-station
