The KickSat development team are currently investigating uses for the
KickSat bus after the Sprite deployment and are seeking collaborators who
could make use of its capabilities as part of an extended mission.

Hi Dan, N8FGV
Not true !
I will donate only to AMSAT-DL because beginning from OSCAR-10
to AO40 only the policy of AMSAT-DL was able to get launches of
HEO satellites from ESA and actually only AMSAT-DL is working
to get a launch opportunity for P3-E or a GTO satellite as you can

Hi Gus, 8P6SM
Yes Gus, those were magic days but it was nice until it
lasted.
Unfortunately actually AMSAT is like a bomber without
bombs or a bull without horns !

Hello all,
I have a Yaesu G500a elevation rotator for sale, complete with control box
and original shipping carton.
This rotator has been fully rebuilt, the entire unit was cleaned, painted,
regreased, all bearings were replaced, and phillips head case screws
replaced with hex-head screws. All mounting hardware is included. The
original plastic cover for the wiring terminals was lost, but a homebrew
cover is included.
The control box was modified to allow computer control (requires additional
hardware).
This rotator is the same as the Kenpro KR-500. You can download the manual
here:
http://www.comunicacio.net/eb3tc/esquemes/2009/kr-500_user_manual.pdf
$250 shipped CONUS
Paypal preferred
Thanks. 73

I again wish to inquire if there are any current or past satellite station
users with experience using the J Beam, Model MBM88/70cm. It was
manufactured by Jaybeam Ltd, Northampton England. Specifically, what SWR
figures were noted and are there any procedures for optimizing SWR? Any
information appreciated, please reply off line. Thanks.

I had one for a while, but never needed to tune it. It put a huge signal
into AO-40, albeit with some polarity/spin fades. Worked real well
terrestrially as well. Robert, KI4HXT always called it my picklefork beam.
