Looks like fun, and how hard can it be?\n\nWell, this old satellite hand had forgotten many of the skills needed\nback before I built a capable, computer-controlled station. I didn't\npractice enough with the new rig at home, I didn't get familiar enough\nwith the location apps, and I assumed too much expertise on the part of\nthe operator. In fact, I couldn't even find the grid line correctly!\nAnd on another pass, I couldn't even hear the bird (still working on\nwhat happened there).\n\nSo, moral of the story, sometimes getting out of one's comfort zone and\ntrying something different is a good thing. But doing so requires some\nhumility. Some things are harder than they look, whether it's building\nand launching a satellite, or just working one from a gravel road in\nNebraska. My hat is off to the successful rovers across the nation.\nAnd I shall work on (re)learning the necessary basic skills before\nsetting out again.\n\n(P.S., if you were one of the stations I worked from the \"grid line,\"\nthe LoTW upload has been corrected. Sorry, it was only EN11.)\n--\nMark D.
