I am new to amateur satellite (this month) and signed up for AMSAT (this
week ) and made my first contact Monday. I am excited by the camaraderie of
this group, and touched by the kindness shown after John Heath's passing...I
am looking forward to this new frontier for me and I hope to make contact
with each of you in the group in the coming years.
Cheers!

one, on the first weekend I ever operated satellite. The bird was crowded
and I didn't really know what I was doing. The second QSO later in the year
was a bit more of a ragchew.

They asked me to tell his amateur radio friends here and I know that
amsat-uk have also been told.

various contacts particularly with Russia.

Memories of John are bittersweet... I first worked John on AO-10 in 1999
(from Texas) and met him a year later at an amsat-uk colloquium in 2000. I
had worked John from Russia on FO-20 a few months before as R3/K5OE and we
exchanged cards at Surrey. I looked forward to meeting up with him every
year after that when I could attend the same meeting. I remember one year
he was kind enough to give me a ride to Heathrow when we left the colloquium
on Sunday.
My sincerest sympathies to his family, and like Dave said earlier, I was
privileged to have known John and called him a friend. He will be missed.
Jerry, K5OE

Greetings,
Late last night I saw that our own Jim Adams, K0BAM, from Colorado, in the
March 2013 QST. See page 20 for a picture of Jim operating his portable
Arrow setup in the snow.
Congratulations to Jim on over 2600 contacts - many I'm sure in the snow, as
well as portable ops.
It's always good to hear you Jim on the sats.
73's - Tom
