I believe that if\nwe had more \"easy sats\" with Mode VHF up and HF down they might be more\npopular.  Tuning and alignment weren't as critical.\n\nJust my two cents or so.\n\n\nKevin Muenzler, WB5RUE\nGrid EL09uf\nEagle Creek Observatory\nhttp://www.eaglecreekobservatory.org\nI've stopped asking \"How stupid can you be?\"  Some people are taking it as a\nchallenge.\n\n\n\n-----Original Message-----\nFrom: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On\nBehalf Of Les Rayburn\nSent: Wednesday, September 18, 2013 3:32 PM\nTo: [email protected]\nSubject: [amsat-bb] The \"Good Ole Days\" are now\n\nLike many hams (I suspect), I dreamed of working satellites for decades. \nFollowed them with at least a passing interest but always seemed to put them\noff till \"someday\". Even during the craze of the \"work satellites with your\nhandheld\", I was distracted by other priorities. When I got involved in\nVHF/UHF a few years ago, and purchased an Icom IC-910H, I kept thinking I'd\nfinally pull the trigger. But years passed without anything other than\nweak-signal contacts being made on that rig.\n\nA few months ago, I finally decided to give it a try. Downloaded SATPC32,\nand updated my keps. FO-29 was the next satellite coming my way, so when I\nwas inside the footprint, I tuned around a bit, and found some stations\ncoming in. Cool! I was actually hearing hams on satellite---next up was\nanswering a CQ...nervously I pushed the PTT on the mic.\n\n82 grids and a few hundred contacts later, I'm having a ball!\n\nI don't miss the birds that came before, but just enjoy what we have now. My\nonly complaint might be that more folks are not active on F0-29 and VO-52.\nEven SO-50 can be nearly empty after midnight.\n\nMy understanding is that within the next year we'll have 2 or 3 more linear\nLEO satellites, and possibly another FM bird, right? While we may not work a\nlot of DX on those, we should get to the point where no one has to wait long\nfor \"something\" to be overhead. That's exciting to me!\n\nAMSAT is staffed with wonderful volunteers, and seems to be doing great\nwork. I'm thrilled to be a member, even if it is #38965.\n\nThe good ole days are now. Get on the birds and make some contacts. I need\nyour grid! (ha, ha)\n\n\n-- \n--\n73,\n\nLes Rayburn, N1LF\n121 Mayfair Park\nMaylene, AL 35114\nEM63nf\n\n6M VUCC #1712\nAMSAT #38965\nGrid Bandits #222\nSoutheastern VHF Society\nCentral States VHF Society Life Member\nSix Club #2484\n\nActive on 6 Meters thru 1296, 10GHz & Light\n\n_______________________________________________\nSent via [email protected].
