No Hawaii stations were heard on the 1950 utc 2/14/10 pass of HO-68 FM ...
VE4AMU, KL7XJ and myself were the only 3 trying to drag them away from the
beach.

Hi all on the BB,
I am planning to buy a Netbook computer for my trip overseas next month. I
am looking for feedback on any problems
running satellite programs (Orbitron, SatPC32, etc.) with a netbook pc that
has the Windows 7 Starter operating system.
Also any information using different Atom Processor's (N270, N280,
N450,etc.) I would rather be down level with XP and
a 32 bit machine if anyone has had major problems with the 64 bit (N450)
and/or Windows 7.
Thanks for any information,
Rick WA4NVM

Rick,
I currently use an Acer Aspire One with the N270 with XP running my Icom
910 , and SatPC32. It hasn't given me any trouble at all. Works like a
charm! If you have any other questions about it, you can email me direct.
73,
Dave KB1PVH

Hi!
Later this week, I will have an AMSAT table at the Yuma (Arizona)
Hamfest & Emergency Preparedness Show:
http://www.yumahamfest.org/
on Friday and Saturday, 19-20 February 2010. The hamfest is at the
Yuma County Fairgrounds - east of downtown Yuma, south of the I-8
freeway, and just north of Yuma International Airport and Marine
Corps Air Station Yuma:
http://www.yumahamfest.org/directions.html
Last year's event drew hams from all over Arizona and southern
California, along with the "snowbird" population spending their
wintertime in the Yuma area and along the nearby Colorado River. Many
Mexican hams from the neighboring Mexican states of Baja California
and Sonora also visited the hamfest and the AMSAT table I had there
last year.
During these two days, I will have on-air demonstrations using various
satellites (AO-51, SO-50, AO-27, VO-52, possibly AO-7 in mode B) using
my callsign WD9EWK if I am able to get away from the table and go outside
the main hall at the hamfest. The hamfest site is in grid DM22qq.
73!

>> ... Many Mexican hams ...
I am always pleased when I make contacts on the FM birds when I hear the
excitement coming from hams in Mexico. Those gentlemen love the birds ...
and they always sound pleased as they make contacts.

That would be one for a poster...
Googling for "shuttle silhouette" brings up the NASA page where you can
get high-resolution ones, suitable for becoming your new desktop
background.

I heard VE4AMU and W6ZKH on that pass, but my efforts to uplink were
unsuccessful. Running 50w ERP on 145.825 (67-Hz tone). I also heard
a couple packet signals.
