I just thought I would check to see if I am using the proper protocol on AO
51. Based on the last pass, I gather one should wait for a station to call
another station, then key up on top of the caller. Then when the other
station attempts to respond, we should all key up on that station. Also, on
a busy weekend pass, one should call out 'CQ' 'CQ' multiple times. Etc.
THAT was the rudest pass I have ever heard...LID City

Mark,
I too am glad we connected today on HRU's W2V special event call, exchanging
grids with you could not have been planned any better. I had 65 "satellite
students" in my presentation today and 17 braved the 22 degree wind chill
for the passes. I then explained to them who N8MH is and just happened to
bring with me some of your detailed and educational details, of the last few
days, on how you and the other command team members are managing AO-51
during the eclipses, they were thrilled with that information. and now want
your autograph! Thank you Mark for helping me make my time at HRU good for
AMSAT!

Hello,
I wanted to thank all the satellite operators who contacted me, as W2V today
on the 19:23 pass of AO-27 and the 20:08 pass of AO-51. I had a blast, we
had 65 "satellite students" in my presentation and 17 braved the 22 degree
wind chill to hear you, and you folks are what "bonds" the entire
presentation. We had a review after the passes and they could not get over
the camaraderie and crisp manner that everyone exhibited on the passes,
thank you for helping me and AMSAT to grow.
If you would like a QSL card, just visit QRZ, W2V and send your information,
I really appreciated your overwhelming response to this event.
73- Pete

No no no no,
You've got to call "OOOOOOOh-la ooooooooohlaaaaa oooooohlaaaaa <whistle
whistle whistle> oh-la oh-la oooooooh-laaaaaaa" all throughout the pass.
Jeez, kids these days with their CQ and their letting go the PTT button.

Hello everyone,
I will be in EM06vu from January 21 to the 23 for the January VHF contest.
This
happens to be close to EM06/EM16/EM07/EM17, so I will be going that corner
also. I can't get to the exact corner, so I can only do 2 grids at a time. I
am going to try to be on most afternoon passes on the following: AO-51, AO-27,
SO-50, FO-29, and VO-52 from EM06 and be on select passes at the grid
corner. I
will let everyone know the exact details in a week or so. If you want a sched
for a certain time/grid combo, send me an e-mail (look on QRZ for e-mail
address) and I can make it happen.

It was the worst I've ever heard which was a shame as there were several new
calls and grids that I haven't heard in the past. I think I made it into
the Bird once but that was it. AO-27 earlier in the Day was bad as well.
It sounded like someone was pushing the buttons on their Mic and sending out
tones over the top of others who were using the Bie times. Etc.
THAT was the rudest pass I have ever heard...LID City

SASI is one of the best simple rotor control interfaces ever and it's too
bad they aren't being made any more. It's what I use for auto tracking on
an old MS-Dos Toshiba notebook and InstantTrack. I got Nova, and Nova
works with SASI, but I haven't used Nova since AO-40 died. InstantTrack is
clean, Simple & fast. Even on a nineteen year old notebook. :-)
I might try PcSat sometime if it could interface with SASI.

Hi!
Saturday (8 January) morning at the Thunderbird Hamfest in
Glendale, Arizona, was a great time. This is the only indoor
hamfest in the Phoenix area, and there was a good turnout.
At different times in the late morning, I had some help at
the AMSAT table from Israel AD7ND (I still need to get him on
the satellites) and Rick K7TEJ. Both are in the radio club
that organized the hamfest, and worked at the hamfest during
the morning. Since I didn't have anyone else to help with
the table, I had no opportunities to go outside and do any
demonstrations until an HO-68 pass around 1722 UTC that
morning. Or so I thought...
This HO-68 pass would have been the best pass to demonstrate
SSB operating. It was a pass with maximum elevation of 89
degrees at the hamfest site in grid DM33vo, and I had my
portable SSB satellite station ready - Yaesu FT-817ND as my
transmitter, Kenwood TH-F6A as my receiver, and Elk Antennas
2m/70cm log periodic as my antenna. I set my radios where I
normally would to start out on an SSB pass for HO-68, and
sent some dits toward the satellite. I heard nothing. As I
am doing this, I'm talking with the crowd who followed me
outside, and we still heard nothing for several minutes. I
kept with the CW for as for a demonstration, seeing some of the calls
listed for HO-68 around that time. Oh well...
Despite not having any successful demonstrations for the morning,
it was a good day for spreading the word about satellite operating.
The ThunderBird Amateur Radio Club, the hamfest organizer, was
helpful as usual in making room for AMSAT at their event. This
was the 4th straight year I've had an AMSAT table at their January
hamfest, the last 3 being indoors on the Thunderbird School of
Global Management campus.
My next hamfest where I will bring an AMSAT table will be the two-
day Yuma Hamfest and Emergency Preparedness Show in Yuma AZ on 18-19
February. Thanks to those who were hoping to hear WD9EWK on passes
Saturday morning, and my apologies for not being on the air anywhere
during the hamfest.
73!

Thanks for the reply . I live in the boonies , at least 10 miles from the
nearest super market scanner . So I think
I can rule that out . I do have a remote weather station , Maybe from that ,
but I've never seen it before . I thought maybe that or some internal
software message ? I just thought it strange it happened as GO32 was
overhead and that is what I was listening for.
Thanks again

Hi Ryan, KB9RID
To solve the above problem the only way is to use satellites with linear
transponder like VO-52. OSCAR-7 and FO-29 with several QSO on CW
and SSB at the same time without QRM in the same passband.
