properly during satellite control (or the satellite control does not work properly…)
Using your transceiver(s) in SAT mode
Your transceiver must implement a SAT mode which allows receive during transmit. However,
the use of a second transceiver for transmit gives about the same behaviour and comfort of
use (please see considerations about Transceivers).
If you use the SAT mode of your transceiver (and the Main and Sub VFOs) please press SAT.
If you are using two transceivers, press TRX2 (or TRX1 ). Also press RX and TX to control
both downlink and uplink frequencies.
Warning
TRX-Manager does not check if you are transmitting in the RX band !
Notes for Satellite transceivers
To control the Main and Sub VFOs for RX and TX respectively, SAT mode must be engaged from
the program and from the rig. Otherwise, TRX-Manager will control VFO A and VFO B : this is not a
limitation but a feature allowing the control of both RX and TX in the same band as required for
packet operation with ISS.
See also the consideration about transceivers for satellites
Using a transverter
The TRX tab allows you setting up the program for the use with a transverter (up/down
converter). These parameters (RX and/or TS offset) only affect the frequencies defined from
the SAT interface. Of course, they do allow the correct calculations of the Doppler
compensation.
This option is not related to the Transverter option of the Preferences/Transceiver dialog.
Using both options at the same time is not recommended and my give unpredictable results.
