    "content": "About two years ago, I set out to get my VUCC in 6 months.  Quickly, I\nfound it no challenge when we had AO-51, SO-67, AO-27, and SO-50 on\nFM.  The odds are good because there are more unique stations on the\nFM birds.  Like the FM birds or not, they DO attract more operators.\nIn about four months, I had over one hundred grids confirmed.  In the\noriginal six month goal period, I'd already hit two hundred.  It\nslowed down quite a bit.\n\nI changed my goal a little bit as I neared the 6 month window.  I\ndecided I'd pursue it via Logbook of the World.  That turned out to be\na real challenge!  To this day, of the 300+ grids I have confirmed by\ncard, I only have 120 or so confirmed by LoTW.  Some of the ones I\nhave in LoTW, however, I do not have in paper cards.  I always try to\nreturn the favor and have confirmed 65+ grids for people via LoTW on\nmy road trips.\n\nWith SO-50 our only operational FM bird, I do spend more time on the\nlinear SSB transponder birds.  It's fun, of course, since you can have\nan actual QSO rather than a contest-style grid exchange.  Heck, I even\npick up a new grid square once in a while.  But I miss having AO-51.\nI support FOX-1 as it will be the gateway drug of choice for new\noperators.\n\nOne thing that I have noticed is that about 50% or better of those on\nthe Leader Board for Satellite VUCC are seldom or NEVER heard on the\nsatellites.  Maybe they are silent keys or maybe their interests\nchanged.  It's just an observation.  Not good or bad.  If you're one\nof those who hung that piece of paper up and parked your antennas, I'd\nlike to work you.  I'm sure others out there could use a grid\nconfirmation.\n\nStill learning, having fun, and making new friends....\n\n73\nClayton\nW5PFG\n\n\nOn Mon, Dec 17, 2012 at 8:01 PM, John Price <[email protected]> wrote:\n> My goodness!
