    "content": "Hi!\n\nOn Saturday, 3 May 2008, the Cochise Amateur Radio Association (CARA)\nheld its annual Larry Warren Hamfest on its \"Green Acres\" field in \nSierra Vista AZ (grid DM41vm):\n\nhttp://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=31.5197+n+110.1901+w&ie=UTF8&ll=32.140734,-110.382385&spn=1.809311,2.807007&t=h&z=9&iwloc=addr\n\nAs part of the hamfest, there was an AMSAT table with information \nrelated to amateur satellites and on-air demonstrations during 3 \npasses.  This was a large (for Arizona) effort, with two Sierra\nVista hams (Jeff K7WIN, Bill K7WJS) taking the lead with the \nplanning for the effort.  Larry W7LB from Tucson and I (driving\nin from Phoenix) were also part of this.  Jeff and Bill have \ndone presentations for the CARA in the recent past, laying the\nfoundation for the AMSAT effort at the hamfest.  The CARA even\nauthorized us to use its callsign K7RDG for our radio operations\nduring the hamfest.  Jeff and Bill also had information on IRLP\nand EchoLink, and we monitored K7WIN's 70cm repeater on both of\nthose networks in case anyone wanted to call us during the hamfest.\n\nWe set up the tables in time for the 7am (1400 UTC) start of the\nhamfest, put out flyers and AMSAT merchandise, and prepared our \nstations (satellite and IRLP/EchoLink).  We were ready for the \nfirst pass, and talking with hams and anyone else walking by\nuntil the first satellite pass.  \n\nAO-51 came by for an overhead pass between 1453 and 1508 UTC, \nand it was a busy pass.  K7RDG made contacts with 2 Canadian \nstations, 6 Mexican stations, and 8 stations from all over the \ncontinental US.  Despite the number of stations, this was a\nvery good pass to show those not familiar to satellite operating.\n\nAbout 20 minutes after that pass (1529-1543 UTC), SO-50 went by \nfrom the north to the southeast.  With a maximum elevation of 51 \ndegrees at our station, it was another good pass for a demonstration.\nK7RDG logged contacts with 10 different stations during this pass.\nOne Canadian station, 5 Mexican stations, and 4 US stations - \nagain, a very nice show for the audience.  \n\nOnce SO-50 passed by, we had almost an hour before the next pass.\nAO-51 made a low pass (maximum elevation 8 degrees) to the west\nbetween 1633 and 1644 UTC.  With mountains in that direction \ncoupled with the low elevation, K7RDG logged only 5 contacts on this \npass.  Four in the continental US, and one (Dale KL7XJ) in Alaska.\n\nAs with other Saturday hamfests in Arizona, this hamfest went until\nmidday.  Then we, like everyone else, packed up our stuff.  Lots of\npeople stopped by our tables, we made 31 contacts with stations from \nAlaska to central Mexico and all across the US, and everyone had a \ngood time.  \n\nThanks to the Cochise Amateur Radio Association for the space and\nthe use of the K7RDG call for our demonstrations, to the operators \non these 3 passes (especially the many XE stations that showed up\nand said \"hello\" to the hamfest), and to Jeff K7WIN and Bill K7WJS\nfor their work leading up to - and on the day of - the hamfest.  \n\n73!\n\n\n\n\nPatrick WD9EWK/VA7EWK \nhttp://www.wd9ewk.net/\n\n\n",
