I'll be on from EL06 during tomorrow's (Thursday) SO50 pass at 25/1951Z and
AO27 pass at 25/2018Z. If we get into the grid in time, I'll also be
on the earlier SO50 pass which rises locally at 25/1812.
>From there, we'll overnight near Corpus Christi so that I can operate from
the EL17 / EL18 line on Friday. SO50 comes up at 26/1840Z followed by AO27
at 26/1950Z.
Saturday should see us pass through the Houston area, and I expect to be on
the EL28 / EL29 line for two AO27 passes and a SO50 pass that
afternoon. Then we'll head for DM91 at a rate of two or three grids per day.

It's time for another College Satellite night! We hope to see you on the
birds Thursday evening March 4th from 22:00 UTC to 0500 UTC. College
Satellite nights are a monthly event held the first Thursday of the month.
Mark your calendar and spread the word to college hams/club stations that
you know!
College club stations plan on being on birds AO51, SO50, AO7, VO52, HO-68
and FO-29. Welcome and make QSOs with them as we are planning on creating
an award for working college club stations on satellite.

Dear AMSAT-BB Readers,
Please find here below the message I am sending out in these days to known
Developers of smallsats.
Should you be part, or be aware of ongoing projects please contact me and
forward freely. TU
"Our Company has been asked to forecast the number of nanosats (1-10 kg) and
microsats (10-100 kg) to be launched in the coming years.
May we kindly ask you to support our efforts in providing us information
about all your current/future projects ? Thank you very much.
Please format your information as per following :
Mission or Satellite Name / Satellite Mass [kg] / Satellite stowed
dimensions, without appendages (Side 1 [cm] x Side 2 [cm] x Height [cm]) /
(future) Launch year / Number of satellites in launcher.
If interested to do so, please attach in your reply whatever documentation
you consider useful for our activity (i.e. describing mission objectives, ...)
Once compiled, we propose ourselves to provide you (in June 2010) the
results of our analysis.
Please forward this message to other persons/entities you know are working
on nanosats/microsats.
Thank you for support,"

Hello
Is there a "easy" way of figuring out where/when a given apogee will at a
given lat.long?? I want to try to predetermine when the apogee will be on
AO-7 to favor the northern hemisphere.? To "maybe" help in dx contacts.? The
difference is only bout 17km in altitude, it just might streeeetch the
footprint enough.? Also just how much does the 17km add to the footprint??

If someone personally knows either Alan Kung, BA1DU or Shaomin Fan, BA1EO,
would you please write me off-list for a personal inquiry?
Many thanks.
