Hello All,
In the last few weeks we have clearly been hearing new satellite
operators on the air. It's a great thing. Let's continue to welcome
them to the birds. Two calls come to mind:
K4M0A--apparently our contact at K4T was his first satellite contact.
How cool is that? :) And his call is rediculously close and
confusing with KO4MA, HI HI.
K4MF--Gary was on the K4T Team, and he's been active on AO-51 the last
2 mornings on newly constructed hombrew Moxon antennas. He's a CW
guru from way back, but he was apparently moved by the satellites he
helped me work during the trip :)
Keep an ear open for these folks (and there are others, but their
callsigns are in memory yet). They will appreciate your keen ears
and kind words.
73,
--

Sometime between 1830Z and 2000Z today, AO-51 suffered a software crash.
Thanks to K8YSE for the early heads up. Mark, N8MH and myself restarted
and started reloading the software required to run the repeater. Until
this is finished, I ask that everyone refrain from transmitting to the
satellite. Now is a good time to tweak your 9600 baud receive setups, as
the digital transmitter is on at about 2 watts.

I have for sale a Yaesu FT817ND HF/6/2/70cm QRP transceiver in very good
condition. It does 5 watts on each band and can run off of internal
batteries-1 internal battery pack is included. It comes with the hand mic,
NC-72B wall charger, carrying strap, antenna, manual, and box.
This makes a great satellite transceiver for portable operations, or can
also be used in the base.
Iam asking $425 plus shipping for it, and can take paypal/check/MO.

On March 21 at around 1600 UTC AO-51 will pass directly over Honolulu, HI.
I may get up early and try to work some stations from on board my ship if
there
is anyone out there who might be interested. Actually, we would not be
strictly
maritime mobile as we'd be tied up at the pier at that time so it would be
marine mobile. If anyone is interested, send me an email asap at:

There should be some 3400.450MHz moon bounce from G4RSR later during
National Science and Engineering Open Day. There will be a live web stream
at http://www.batc.tv/ for further details see

All reloaded and open for business. Thanks to Kevin WA6FWF and Mark
N8MH, this was the fastest reload ever I think.

Congratulations to the Control Team N8MH KO4MA and WA6FWF
for their efforts to revive AO-51. This weekend was to
be very active since some were planning grid expeditions.
Not having AO-51 available would have impacted those efforts.
This morning on the 1311z pass, Kerry WC7V was operating portable
from DN46 and DN56 and Chris KC0YBM was in EN24. All of these
are rare grids. It was great to hear them operating for our
benefit. Thank you Kerry and Chris!
The radio that Chris uses for satellites requires 120VAC power
so he purchased a 400w inverter that would allow him to take his radio
on the road! He may operate in EN25 next!
If you haven't tried operating portable away from home, please
consider doing so. It is a lot of fun and others will appreciate
the effort you make to do it.
73,
John K8YSE
