The (ONE!) guy I worked on \nSO-50 even said \"Well, that's it on this bird!\", and I got him later on \nAO-7.\n\nWe had a group of people who wanted to watch us work the satellites, so \nmy son graciously surrendered his headphones, and several people \nlistened as I ran AO-7 and VO-52.\n\nThey really enjoyed it, and now have a better understanding of what \n\"Doppler Shift\" is, and by watching the SatPC32 display, and the \nantennas, also have a basic understanding of satellite orbits, and why \nyou need to keep moving the antennas.\n\nI let them listen to some low passes of SO-50 and AO-51 that were mostly \nout over the Pacific, and as K6LCS said, the operators were well behaved.\n\nI wouldn't dare let them listen to a pass over the middle of the \ncountry, as I'm sure they'd be discouraged!\n\n73, Jim\n\nOn 06/28/2011 04:04 AM, Gary \"Joe\" Mayfield wrote:\n> I can absolutely claim at least 3 satellite converts as a result of the old\n> get on the air and hammer away method, but 0 converts since the one and done\n> era.\n>\n> Joe kk0sd\n>\n> -----Original Message-----\n> From:[email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On\n> Behalf Of Majdi S.
