If people STOPPED BEACONING via the ISS we would still be able to use
PC-SAT...
Thanks for taking part in the destruction of NO-44...
AND being annoying on the ISS Digipeater...

Kevin,
Let me start by saying this ISN'T a personal attack.
Bob WB4APR has been asking on and off for years for people to stop
unattended beacons with varying success. The problem is that most of the
"offenders" don't read the BB. Why don't you go on a personal crusade and
figure out who the offenders are and contact them directly instead of
whining about it here, where obviously it isn't doing any good.

I had the pleasure of working HA1SE on Monday 3Dec 2012
on AO-7B cw. The QSO was during the afternoon so I quickly
prepared a QSL card to take down to the post office as Imre
was very excited about the QSO (it was my first HA so me too!)
Yesterday, Friday 7Dec, and to my surprise, I received an email
from Imre advising me that he had received my qsl card! So in
a matter of a few days, the USPS here and the Hungarian Postal
Service there teamed up to deliver this card in what I would
consider record time, just 4 days! Congratulations to both
postal services for an amazing job!
73,
