I actually had someone start the explanation themselves for me one
time...they were leaving the parking lot where my truck was all rigged up
and they said, "Whatcha doing...tracking a bird?" I replied, "Well, sort
of..."

I will be portable /4 for the last half of this week...
Below is the list of passes that I anticipate working on Thursday, December
23, 2010. At this point, I will be working them from EM67, BUT may try to
get up to EM68 for the last two.
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 23, 2010
18:25Z SO-50 - SHALLOW PASS
19:04Z AO-27 - around 80 degree pass
20:05Z SO-50 - 50 degree pass
21:23Z AO-51 - 50 degree...depends on mode.
Looks like it will be a rainy/sleety/snowy Christmas vacation for us, but I
will try to get some QSOs in from these grids while I am there. I hope the
weather and roads are decent enough for me to work some passes early next
week from EM67 ( and maybe EM68 ), too. I will be traveling back to Alabama
on Wednesday, December 29, 2010.
I will try to give timely advanced notice via the bb when I am able to
confirm other passes that I will work, etc.
As always, if you need a QSL for the grids from which I work, please email
me the details after the QSO and I will get a QSL out to you as soon as I
can when I return home.
Good luck and 73 to all!

Does anyone know the polarization of the 2.4 GHz transmissions from AO-51.
Are they circular? If so which polarity, RHCP or LHCP? Are they linear?
If so is there a preferred receiving polarization? I have examined the
AMSAT web site and many references on the Internet, but cannot seem to find
the answer.
Thanks,
John WA4WDL AMSAT member 10211
