If you have a Twitter\naccount, you can follow and tweet to @AMSAT to contact other satellite\noperators.?? I believe that there is something similar on Facebook.\nSince I don't use Facebook, I'll have to let someone else verifythat.\n\nI would love to have a QSO with you and your students!?? Unfortunately,\nI live in Richardson, TX (EM12px) and opportunities for skeds are\ninfrequent, brief, and at low elevation angles (like less than one\ndegree maximum)!?? It is a bit more possible the further west I go.\nIn March of 2018, I had a successful sked with N7AGF at BK29gq, while\nhe was there on vacation.?? I was at EM12ek and we both heard each other\nloud and clear, so it is doable. The distance was nearly 6000km!\n\nI don't know whether you and your class would be interested in trying\na sked with such a great distance.?? I'm sure that there are satellite\noperator on the west coast that would be willing to have a sked.\n\n73 and Mahalo,\n\nMac Cody / AE5PH\n\nOn 5/3/19 11:58 AM, John Bonewitz via AMSAT-BB wrote:\n> Aloha!\n>\n> I???m a Physics Teacher at Kea???au High School (BK29LO).
