I'll be attempting to work a few satellite passes from
the Cleveland Metroparks at the Westpark Radiops Club
Meeting/Picnic tonight. It is very likely that there will be no
line of sight from this location but I'll try no matter what.
The Westpark Radiops is a very old club, one that I went
to meetings with my cousin xW8BUS(sk) when I wasn't even 10 years old.
Those were the days of cigar smoke, good conversation,
bragging, auctions, and the highlight, coffee and doughnuts. Some
things don't change.
I'll be on the FO-29 at 2204z, AO-51 2227z and VO-52 at 2354z.
Hope I can work someone. Please give me a call if you hear me.
73,
John K8YSE

I just completed a survey ... took me weeks to compile all the data ...
THE RESULTS:
97.3 per cent of AMSAT friends and supporters are totally cool.

Hello all,
I have a BlackBerry Bold cellular telephone and am in search of a tracking
application for it. I normally use a combination of the AMSAT Pass
Predictions or Heavens-Above web pages to get what I need from the mobile
web but I'd like to have some kind of local application that doesn't require
a cellular signal. I realize there are iPhone applications, but that doesn't
help me as a BlackBerry user. Any suggestions?
Thank you and 73,
Clayton

The test of HAM service of PRISM was worked today, 16 Jul 2011,
05:16-05:29UTC over Japan. The frequency was 437.425MHz AFSK.
The HAM service of PRISM will open soon.

Cori and I will try to be on from DM51 tomorrow (Sat) for some ops that
missed us there the last couple times. I'm not sure what pass(es) it be on
however since we're still doing the tourist thing, although operation from
that grid will likely be in the afternoon.
After that, we'll be on from DM31 on Sunday as we head out towards the Yuma
area and then up along the AZ/CA border for the grids in that area.
For Mervyn Hecht (sorry, I don't have your call or e-mail address), we'll be
on from Utah (DM37) in a few days and then New Mexico (several grids
including the high demand DM66) several days later. You can keep an eye out
for W1AW/5 from NM before that though.
I'll keep the BB posted on the schedule.

I built with success an LVB tracker control to remote control an AZ rotator.
I would like to control with the same circuit also another AZ rotator, not
simultaneously with the actual I use.
Any one experienced this?
I think it could work with just switching the two rotators lines (turn
right,turn left, azimuth voltage), if they would be same models or at least
would be of the same type (North or south) and same azimuth voltage return.
But I think that this last thing (voltage return) could be the real problem to
have correct indication of direction between the rotators.
Probably it is time to make another LVB tracker PCB...
Ideas?

Hi all,
Did anyone have any problem with the recent kep's posted out this week on
the mailing list.
The format that appeared on my computer was totally different with spaces
and a specific message of the use and distribution.
My Sat PC software failed to read them , I also checked out the current
pages of Amsat and the Kep's that
were available for download were still dated for the 7th July 2011.
I have also run "Orbitron" and it worked OK when I stripped out the
headers/ tails and spaces that were contained in this weeks kep's posting.
Many thanks for your time.
