[K6BW] Using the 8800 for satellites

[Bill Smith]

...from the FT-8800R at yahoogroups.com mailing list

Ernie,
All good info on working the Sats. Thanks.

I'm sure many on the group would like to work the Sats and a full
explanation of how you set up your 8800 would really help. It could
even be posted in the files section.

Questions:
Do you put the Freqs in memory or VFO?
How do you compensate for Doppler shift as the Sat passes over?
Do you change frequencies on the uplink or downlink or both? Or is FM
widebanded enough that you don't need to bother about the shift?

tnx & 73
