    "content": "Jeff and everyone,\n\nRandy is doing well. I emailed him recently while researching the feature on Rob, KD4ZGW, that appears in the new issue of the AMSAT Journal, which has already hit a few mailboxes. Randy is the first to have earned the Central States VHF Society's Reverse VUCC Award on the satellites. Only one other operator - Allen, N5AFV - also has the award on the satellites. Congratulations to both of them. Those who know Randy may be interested in this update he provided, when I asked if he ever gets on the satellites these days:\n\nI do listen on my way to work and did get back on for a few days last month.  I am going to help a school in Salt\nLake county with their ARISS contact which has not been given a date yet.   When they get a date I will on the\nsatellites a lot more to get back in practice.    They last few years I have been active doing EME on 2 meters and I have 107 grids confirmed via the moon.\n\nYou can check out http://emeshack.com/ for my latest status.\n\nIt was fun to give out all of those grid squares.  Feel free to use the map at \n\nhttp://www.xmission.com/~rkohlwey/images/fromgrid.gif\n\nThe map is current of August 3, 2006.  The dots are the locations I have worked a satellite from.  The dots that are not in a shaded area I was not able to complete a contact.  The grids with the grid square displayed are the ones that I did not send out a QSL card for. No one requested one.\n\nPart of my motivation for giving out so many grids was to get help on working all of the grids in the 48 Continental\nstates.  I completed that on August 11, 2001. The blue dots on the following map are confirmed QSOs on satellite.\n\nhttp://www.uglyfrog.com/n7sfi/images/usagrid.gif \n\nI completed a reverse WAS on September 12, 2008 but do not have QSL cards for all the states. \n\nHope this helps,\n\nRandy - WI7P\n\nMoon VUCC! How cool is that?!\n\n73 to all,\n\nTim - N3TL\n\n\n-------------- Original message from \"Jeff KB2M\" <[email protected]>: -------------- \n\n\n> Randy's call is now wi7p. I haven't heard Randy on the bird's since 2006, I \n> hope he is doing ok. The thing I remember most about Randy is that he \n> completed (to the my best of my knowledge) WAS in reverse. Another words he \n> worked someone on a satellite FROM every state! I thought that was quite an \n> accomplishment. He would travel somewhere for work and make sat contacts \n> from as many states as he could drive too while he was in that general area. \n> I remember him discussing this activity while we were having dinner at the \n> AMSAT symposium banquet in 2000 in Maine. There was another person involved \n> in doing this also, but I now forget who it was. \n> \n> 73 Jeff kb2m \n> \n> \n> -----Original Message----- \n> From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On \n> Behalf Of Gary \"Joe\" Mayfield \n> Sent: Tuesday, July 21, 2009 11:58 PM \n> To: 'George Henry'; 'amsat bb' \n> Subject: [amsat-bb] Re: Rare grid squares? \n> \n> DXers produce list of desired countries.
