Thanks for the comprehensive video! A tip for those who have a conflict between both comm ports..... Plug the cable from the IC-9700 directly into your PC and not via a splitter / USB extender!! It took me many hours to discover this, but luckily it works perfectly now. 73 de PH3V
A video I can watch and learn from and not be confused in the end. No gimmicks, no monkey face, straight to the point, no unnecessary trash and junk talking. Some of those you tubers should pay attention to the video. NU1U de N2NWK 73
well said, there is so much crap on some channels, like i want to be entertained, no i want to be educated, which this video does perfectly. Thank you very much 73 2E0FWE
@@nu1u_ant True that. Maybe higher availability via the new Tevel Constellation will help on that front. I need to get better at CW to get the most out of the linears though. More motivation outside of HF contesting, which is completely unique compared to "conversational" CW haha.
bit late replying, but wanted to say thanks for this comment, i'm just getting into satelittles and have egg beaters on an ic-9700 - its good to know that i'll be able to use them on digital modes.
I am trying to do this and I am getting an error when I start the second XSJTX instance. wsjt-x Another instance may be running try to remove stale lock file How do I get around this? Thank you for all your information. Del K8OCN
Yes, both the radio and the application should save your changes by default. The radio, with an SD card, can save for multiple different configs. The application allows for multiple configs as well.
sigh...cant get my 9700 to key...you were using a USB cable correct and not some type of CI-V cable...when my 9700 is plugged in I get COM4 and COM5 SatPC32 is using COM5
Thank you for the video. Do you have any how-to videos on configuring Sat32 and the 9700? Im familiar with WSJT-X but I have never used Sat32 or chased the birds at all. Thanks and 73 de NF4J
Very Cool! I'm always finding something new to try. I was looking at building an eggbeater antenna for my base station. Being omnidirectional, does the rotor help much with your setup?
just a quick question regards the setup , would i be able to use these settings for the oq 100 satellite too ?, as i am in the footprint of it ?? ps nice no fluff video btw

Brilliant solved several unaddressed issues in 1 video, thanks for taking the time to put this together - Dave M0SAT
I can't believe Bean let you have the radio for that long....LOL Happy Holidays!
Awesome tutorial. This is easier then working the FM birds tbh. I can work down to 5 deg elevation on my eggbeaters and IC-9700 setup.
Once you get used to them the linear birds are easier going. FM birds can be chaotic.

Thanks for this video Ant. Just got my 9700 setup with sat pc32 today. Was wondering how to do the digital modes on satellites.
That was a lot of help. Thank you!
I want the IC-9700 for receiving digital sats. Is it true the 9700 does not have enough bandwidth to receive 9600 baud signals? Thanks, CE4JDM

How do I get around this?
Thank you for all your information.

You need to change the rig name on the second icon. . Check out the video description for the icon launch info.
Can you save the set up in the 9700 and return to it with out re-adjusting the settings each time? Same q for WSJT-X
Yes, both the radio and the application should save your changes by default. The radio, with an SD card, can save for multiple different configs. The application allows for multiple configs as well.
I didn't know about shift + click in wsjtx!

I want to, but haven't had the time. The installation guide is what I used and it was pretty easy to follow. www.dk1tb.de/IC9700_Setup.pdf
Nice video !

I have yagis with a rotator. No experience with eggbeaters.
just a quick question regards the setup , would i be able to use these settings for the oq 100 satellite too ?, as i am in the footprint of it ?? ps nice no fluff video btw
I'm not in the footprint, but I do not believe that the IC-9700 runs the frequencies required for that bird.
Terrific tutorial!! I just might try this with my FT847. Is there a particular freq that is the watering hole for FT4?
AFAIK it's mostly skeds on twitter. Hit me up though and we can make a contact.
