I just want to apologize for not coming back to you (I heard\nyou!) and KC3K something. I couldn't call either of you because...\n\nFN20rk got several thunderstorms as soon as I broke squelch and\nsomeone came back to me on AO-51. I literally heard my call sign\n(KC2ZSX) and rain started to come down followed by thunderstorms. I\nwas outside and my Kenwood is not water proof (and I lose the signal).\n\nI was crying...\n\nI was so ecstatic guys. I am 2 month old ham and a brand new AMSAT\nenthusiast. I have loads of questions but I am making progress with\nmy D72A.\n\nI will definitely look for you and whoever else can come back to me.\n\nOne thing I notice is that its almost impossible not to step on\nsomeone during these sessions. I try my best not to step on anyone\nbut there is almost no window to call someone! :-(\n\nI did however buy a mic/headset combo for the D72A to make my life easier.\n\n> I have tried sending packets through the ISS with a stock rubber duck using\n> my TH-D7A, and it is just about impossible.

My letter has been shredded. I am on the map!\n\nMy first AMSAT victory (actually two, you heard me on AO-51). I am\nagain, really pleased. When I saw \"MY POSITION\" I literally jumped up\nand said 'WOOOHOOO!'\n\nThanks to everyone on the list,\n\n73\n\n-aps (KC2ZSX)\n\n", "attachments": [] }
