Cori and I spent a chunk of this afternoon visiting with Leo, W7JPI and his
XYL in DM41. The visit was very enjoyable but prevented us from getting to
DM31 as we'd planned.
We're overnighting in DM32 which I'll operate from tonight on VO52 when it
comes up locally at 18/0340Z. Then tomorrow morning, we'll head back down
the road and expect to hit the DM31 / DM32 grid line on VO52 at 18/1532Z. I
should be somewhere around 145.910 on both passes.
After that, we'll head up to do the DM22 / DM23 line on AO27 when it rises
locally at 18/2042Z.
73 for now,
Jim, ND9M / VQ9JC
Ajo, AZ / DM32

Sorry for the second posting so quickly. Cori's and my QTH can be tracked
during this trip via APRS (ND9M-7, vice -9). Hopefully this will help you
work around our skeds when interruptions occur like they did today!
Tks to WD9EWK for the reminder about APRS tracking.
73,

Hi!
I tried to post a message saying I was at grid DM34we
yesterday afternoon, but it was held up by the mailing list
for 12 hours. I received my copy from the list early Sunday
morning. In any event, thanks to those who made QSOs
with me when I was at that spot, a freeway rest area about
50 miles/80km north of Phoenix. I worked 5 different passes
(AO-7 mode B, FO-29, AO-51, and two AO-27 passes).
QSOs are already uploaded to LOTW. If you'd like a paper
QSL card, please e-mail me with the QSO details. If you're
in the log, I'll drop a card in the mail.
DM34 is one of the 6 grids I regularly visit and work from.
I use a city park in Phoenix that sits on the DM33/DM43
boundary as my "home QTH", and also work from the
DM32/DM42 and DM34/DM44 grid boundaries - both are
an hour or so from Phoenix. I didn't go all the way to the
DM34/DM44 boundary yesterday due to time constraints,
and I had operated from DM44 last month when I was at
a hamfest in eastern Arizona. If you'd like to make a
QSO from any of these grids, please e-mail me so we
can set a plan to do that. I also travel to other Arizona
grids, and ND9M is currently on the road working from
some of the rarely-heard grids in this state. :-)
73!

I was wondering if anyone has information about receiving weather
Satellites. I have the A.R.R.L. Weather Satellite Handbook but its dated
1994 and is rather limited. I would like to know what freq.'s to find them
on etc.
Thanks in advance! 73's

The AMSAT-UK International Space Colloquium at the Holiday Inn, Guildford,
GU2 7XZ, England will be taking place during the activation of ARISSat-1.
Members of AMSAT-UK hope to be active during the ARISSat-1 tests from the
GB4FUN communications module situated in the Holiday Inn parking lot.
GB4FUN: http://www.gb4fun.org.uk/
It is intend to use the GB4FUN station equipment to listen to the various
ARISSat-1 signals and, hopefully make a few contacts through the linear
transponder.
In addition they will be experimenting with the use of FUNcube Dongle
software defined radios to receive the ARISSat-1 signals with a variety of
different antennas.
The Colloquium is open to all Radio Amateurs and SWL's. Either day passes or
full packages comprising overnight accommodation and meals are available.
For futher information see
