Not so much the FCC as our wonderful public "Education" system that seems to
have forgotten how to instill critical thinking in their students.

Why does everyone continue to try to talk to this Brain dead person.

it really goes to show how the FCC has dumbed down the tests.

What am I doing wrong?

Twice in the past month I have tried to get a personal answer from an
AMSAT board member to direct questions posed by a satellite builder.
Questions raised after reading our questionnaire regarding sat building.

Can we please get our fecal matter together for this gentleman, and
get authoritative answers to him? Or is this beyond the scope of AMSAT
and its current leadership?

Just received my AMSAT board member personal contact on this inquiry.
Thank you very much. Thread can end now - it is being handled.

I managed to dust off the Arrow antenna and my trusty little
VX-3R (at the last minute I couldn't locate my TH-D7A, which
I like a little better, but the VX-3R works) and aimed it
at the sky.  I had a bit of trouble with the manual tracking,
but I recorded about 10 minutes, netting four different attempts
at the SSTV image.   I blogged it here:

http://brainwagon.org/2009/07/20/40th-anniversary-of-apollo-11-on-ao-51/

MP3 and images are available.  Not the greatest, but not terrible
either.

I write this just after the liftoff from the moon +40 years.

Many thanks to amsat and to nasa for the thrilling participation in the moon
landing - again,+40.

Last night as the *live* audio came over the 'net I sms/texted my (grown up)
kids as if it were live - GO for powered descent, 44000 ft, 60 seconds etc -
and they really got excited about it! "Sorry what?" "Where are you getting
this from?" "Wicked!" My teenage son said how he could tell his son (if and
when he will ever have one, hi) how his father and grandfather heard and saw
it live, and how he experienced it "live" with his own father: and so the
generations go on.

and to get a picture live from space, with the voice of JFK - another story -
Buzz, and Neil, made a superb evening and worthy of such an anniversary.

many thanks

andy G0SFJ

All,

First- If you want to get in touch with an officer or a board member, email
them directly. Callsign@xxxxx.xxx almost always works, or go to the webpage
and use the link next to their name. If it is time sensitive or very
important, call the office and Martha will direct you to the appropriate
person and probably even give you their phone number.

Second- If you can, try investigating the question a bit before immediately
passing it off. I can tell you I am running at about 150% with AMSAT things
that require my attention. Not to sound crass, but at least 75% of the email
questions I get could be solved with Google and 30 seconds of your time. I
love helping people and helping AMSAT, but sometimes folks ought to just look
on their own first. It feels better when you get the answer that way.

73, Drew KO4MA
