Which satellite prediction program do we see on the big screen on the NASA TV
broadcasts from mission control in Houston?

If you configure it the right way, Orbitron can look pretty close.
Orbitron can do the satellite tracks (future, past, and middle), the
"radio-bubble", and several other things that makes it look like the
real-deal here in Houston.
You can get it for free from http://stoff.pl/ (you can also download some
new backgrounds. I personally prefer the night high-res one.)

Hi all.???
I wonder if there is anyone out there who can help me, I am trying to locate a
GASFET for my Landwehr 70 cms preamp model GAAS 435ma. I have been informed
that there is no equivalent as these were specially for Landwehr Electronics
so it would seem that my only hope is that someone, somewhere may have a
preamp that has seen better days, but still has the Gasfet intact.
?
I have emailed Landwehr but to date no reply,
?
Any assistance would be greatfully appreciated.
73.
Howard. G0VBT.

Hi!
Why not just replace the dead GaAsFET with modern GaASFET and retune the
circuits. I dont know what kind of FET that is but if it is single gate
model then you can replace it for example with the popular MGF1302.
There are also dual-gate GaAs-FET amplifiers with S3030-fet.
It is guite simple to modify the amp to use single-gate FET.

I have my Nova software looking almost identical. I have it displayed on a
large flat screen at all times on my wall.

ISS Amateur Radio Status: March 11, 2009
By Miles Mann WF1F,
MAREX-MG News www.marexmg.org
Manned Amateur Radio Experiment
Shuttle Launch Visible Tonight:
If you live along the East Coast of the USA, you maybe able to see the Shuttle
Discovery?s launch tonight at 9:20 p.m. (EDT). People in Florida are use to
seeing the Shuttle launch, however when the Shuttle is launched at Night, to
the International Space Station, the engines can be seen as far north as Maine
(conditions permitting).
So tonight, if you have clear skies, try to find a hill that looks SouthEast.
The hill will need to be dark with few city and street lights. The shuttle
will only be visible for a few minutes to seconds depending on your location.
The first two minutes of the launch are the brightest. The Shuttles Solid
Rocket boosters will burn for the first two minutes; this will be your best
shot as seeing he Shuttle. When the SRB stop, the liquid fuels engines will
still be running and generating some visible light. After about 8 minutes
after launch the main engines will shut down and so will your light source.
Try to monitor the NASA channel. If you can, have someone at home watch the
NASA channel on TV and tell you the countdown by Cell phone.
Boston Weather:
Looks like we will be socked in for most of New England. Poor shuttle viewing
conditions.
Here is a current link I found that gives a few more details on how to see the
shuttle tonight.
