I tried yesterday afternoon and got one position report thru PCSAT 
(W3ADO-1) but didn't manage to get a (email) message through it with it 
manually created in a Tracker2 (actually T2-135) COMMENT field. However, 
I tried again this morning and was successful in getting several 
position reports through it and sent myself one email message. I would 
have to get up at some slightly uncivilized times for the next few 
mornings to repeat this though!

For Tracker2 users with a terminal program connected, the procedure 
was...

PATH WADO-1
SEND EMAIL user at domain.com message text

The position report was sent manually with the BEACON command.

I saved the buffer from the terminal program, so have a record of what 
other stations I heard via PCSAT as well as its own beacons...

(sorry - no time stamps)

I was using www.heavens-above.com to show the AOS/LOS times for PCSat.
