Many newcomers don't know how to operate on sats, and this \nis often compounded by poor receive performance on many beginners' \nstations.  On many occasions, if an offending station was within \nsimplex range, I'd call them aside after the pass, and have a bit of \na chat.  If there was another pass to follow, I'd invite them to have \nanother go, focusing on receiving the downlink, and if they do hear \nthe bird, giving a quick call and try their luck.  In the downtime \nbetween or after passes, we'd talk about things like improving \ndownlink reception.  One year, while holidaying in Queensland, I had \na whole bunch of locals using UO-14 with portable gear, after talking \nthem through the process on the local repeater before the passes. \n:)  If people have a HT, I will suggest they take it outside during a \npass and have a listen, if they don't have any suitable antennas already setup.\n\nAlmost everyone I have spoken to has gone on to make a successful \nsatellite contact, after this bit of Elmering.\n\n>in, and point them in the right direction for proper operation.

I wrote a similar piece around 8 years ago called \n\"satiquette\", which addressed these issues on FM birds.   At the \ntime, SO-35 was active, and that was hugely popular down here.  It \nwas a lot of fun. :)  I also wrote some articles on using SO-35's \nparrot mode, which took a lot of skill to get any useable \nthroughput.  The parrot (for those who don't know or recall) was \nbasically a simplex store and forward repeater that worked in the \nfollowing cycles:  <single tone> 10 second uplink slot (satellite \nreceiving) <double tones> 10 second downlink slot (satellite \ntransmitting).  As one could imagine, this had _massive_ hidden \nstation issues, but if you did it right, you could get a QSO.  Just \nenough time to get a callsign and RST, with time for one or two \nothers to do the same in the slot. :)\n\n\n>As a community, the first step for fixing these problems on satellites\n>should be outreach and education.

The majority of \"anti-social\" behaviour is actually \nignorance, and education goes a long way to making things work smoothly. :)\n\n73 de VK3JED\nhttp://vkradio.com\n\n",
