This classic YouTube video expresses one young gentleman's concern for
the future of amateur radio satellite enthusiasts:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sONfxPCTU0
In the last few seconds of the video, an appeal is made to all generations.

At one time I was seeing updates on new SAT projects.
For some reason when I had my computer hard drive problem
I stop seeing such updates and cant seem to find the URL now.
Can someone please pass it to me again? And any word on
what is happening on a replacement for AO-40 other then lack
of funds.
Thanks, all

The predictions seem quaint now, but, back then, they seemed realistic.

I have renamed the files with only the first letter capitalized to fix the
case-sensitive OS issue.
I have also e-mailed Michael Wyrick to double-check the new Topr.txt file,
as it shows the analog transponder only on for four minutes, and it
definitely seemed to be on for the usual 7 minutes when I listened to a pass
yesterday. I think it's a typo...

Just wanted to double check I didn't overlook anything, are there any mode
L (23cm) birds operational in any voice mode?
Regardless, anyone know why I can purchase a 23cm circular pol antenna?
thanks

Hi Miles,
Did you mean why, or where?
Bob W7LRD may have a few ideas where.
A helix isn't hard to build, I did a big one for 23cm without serious
injury! It's actually 1/4 of the VE3NPC array, you can find the details
on my website http://n0jy.org under the satellite antennas tab.
73,
Jerry

With AO-51 inoperative, there are no voice L uplinks left that I know of.
Kiwisat will have voice L uplinks when launched, and CO-65 has a L/U 9k6
digipeater that is available on many weekends.
