    Hallo Jens

    Danke für Deinen Input. Der Transverter Shop ist im Moment offline, da er in den Ferien ist.


    Im Prinzip läuft ja meine Anlage zu Hause bestens mit dem IC-9700 und dem Transverter von PE1CMO

    http://www.hb9ryz.ch/sat-qo-100/index.html


    Wäre halt schön den Flex 6700 dafür einzusetzen - es eilt nicht und ich werde sicher bald einen geeigneten Ttransverter finden, der einfach mit dem Flex 6700 zu betreiben ist.

    Hoi Matthias

    Danke für Dein Feedback.

    Ich habe von Rene PE1MCO eine spezielle voll-duplex Lösung erhalten. Die default Version ist simplex auf 70cm.

    Ich kann also auf 70cm senden und gleichzeitig auf 2m hören.


    Habe die Transverter auch einen 5-Band Transverter von Q5 Signal gefunden:

    http://q5signal.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=70


    Habe diese mal angeschrieben und bin gespannt auf deren ANtwort. Sie haben bereits viel Erfahrung mit Flexradio.


    Im Moment benutze ich den IC-9700 mit dem dem PE1CMO Transverter.


    Da ich jedoch den Flex 6700 zu Hause und auf meiner Remote DX-Station einsetze, möchte ich halt den QO-100 auch mit dem Flex mit SmartSDR betreiben.

    Hello All

    I found the soltion with HDSDR v2.8 and my IC-9700 using Omnirig v2.1 for the QO-100 SAT Operation :)


    Setup:

    - SDRPlay RSP2 for Downlink 739 MHz (LNB with 25 MHz Ref-In)

    - IC-9700 as Transceiver for the Up-Link 431 MHz

    - Omnirig v2.10 for HDSDR v2.80 http://www.hb9ryz.ch/omnirig/index.html

    - QO-100 Transverter from PE1CMO


    You need to install the the ExtIO_SDRplay_RSP2.dll for the SDRPlay RSP2

    https://www.sdrplay.com/softwa…HDSDR_Installer_2.76a.exe


    HDSDR Offset Configuration in the Omnirig SAT Menu:

    - Options - CAT to Radio (Omni-Rig) - set Converter Offset



    - Options - RF Front-end Configuration



    Omnirig v2.10

    http://www.hb9ryz.ch/omnirig/index.html



    The whole QO-100 SAT Setup is on my website

    Hello


    I just got the new HDSDR v2.80 running with my SDRPlay RSP2 and with the new Omnirig v2.1 with my IC-9700.

    But I’m not able to set the up/dwon converter freq. correctly.

    If I use on my IC-9700 the freq. 431.740 MHz should be 10’489’740 MHz on QO-100.


    If I change the freq. manually on HDSDR to 739.740 MHz, I see all QO-100 QSOs 😊

    But how can I enable the up/down converter function?


    The offset should be: 739.740 MHZ

    Minus IC-9700 freq. - 431.740 MHz

    Offset: 308.00 MHz

    @ Lucio

    Hi Lucio

    Thank you.


    The SDRPlay RSP2 is working with the correct ExtlO Plugin :)


    Normally, I'm also using SDR Radio Console v3.0.22 with my IC-9700 and Omnirig v1.19


    The reason why I would like to use HDSDR v2.80 is the support of the new Omnirig v2.1.


    I'm using the IC-9700 with the Transverter from PE1CMO. So if I use 431.740 MHz on the IC-9700, it would be 10'489'740 MHZ on QO-100.


    I was not able to setup the up/down converter correct.

    Und gleich noch eine Frage ;)

    Wie habt ihr eueren LNB mit aufgestecktem POTY geschützt? Ich denke da an ein KG- bzw. HT-Rohr. Die Seite "zum Spiegel hin" muss ja aus HF-durchlässigem Material sein, eine simple Abdeckkappe eines HT-Rohres wäre da wohl eher kontraproduktiv, oder?

    Würde mich über Tipps bzw. Fotos als Anregung freuen.

    Vy 73, Hans

    Hi Hans

    I'm using a simple plastic cover where you can buy in every SAT-Store.

    Hi All

    I have issues to connect my IC-9700 over USB Com Port 5 with SDR Radio console v3.0.17.


    I tried with Omnirig v1.19 but I'm not able to use my ICOM IC-9700 as an external Radio with SDR Radio console v3.0.17 in order to synchronize QO-100 with my IC-9700.


    I have no Idea why this is not working. It works with Log4OM over OmniRig or with the ICOM CS-9700 Programming Software.


    Who knows how this will work?

    What kind of settings are need within the SDR Radio Console?

    What kind of Omnirig INI-File is needed?

    I have Logger32. It works fine and export data is accepted by LotW.

    You need to make some settings: Bandplan for 13cm, prop mode = SAT and sat name = QO-100.

    Hi Armin

    I already installed Logger32. But as I was importing my ADIF-File from HAM Office, Logger32 was not able to handle the freq. 2400 MHz. So no QSO was imported and I don't know where to tweak Logger32 to import my ADIF-File without any error.


    Thanks and 73 de HB9RYZ

    N1MM

    Hi Remco

    I know N1MM but I never got happy with this software - for contest OK.

    Perhaps at the end my choice if I don't find any other better log software.


    Thanks and 73 de HB9RYZ

    Wolfgang

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

    Hi Johannes

    I just installed XMLOG on Windows 10. This software is a very old piece of software and the Window to enter the QSO is to small using on big screen. And I found no evidence of SAT-fields in the Log exept the freq. but not SAT-name and no SAT-PROP fields.


    So, this will be not my logbook program for the QO-100 QSOs


    Thanks and 73

    Hi All

    Thank you very much for your answer and tips :)

    I'm using Log4om for short wave but would like to separate short wave and SAT.

    I'm now going to test these log programs and let know.

    Hi All

    But I was not able to see any DATV Video with this software and the VLC-Player :(

    Is there a complete Quick-Quide how to do so?


    Why are developers in the HAM-Community never never write manuals how to use there own software - this is the missing USP.

    And let the users share how it works. Just a Quick-Quide in a PDF for dummies would be engough. But every time I have to collect all information our and our in the Internet - its just a waste of time for everybody.
