I know this is a bit off-topic, but does anyone know of any meteor scatter email lists? I'm interested in trying WSJT this weekend if possible, and it is predicted that the Leonids should be heavy... 73, Dave N0TGD

EaglePedia Back Online
by Emily Clarke 15 Nov '06

15 Nov '06

The EaglePedia upgrade went smoother than expected and EaglePedia is now successfully online. Some features are in the process of testing and integration, however these should not impact EaglePedia's normal use. 73, Emily --------------------------------- N1DID formerly W0EEC - CM87tm Support Project OSCAR - http://www.projectoscar.net

by W.J. Ubbels 15 Nov '06

15 Nov '06

Hi all, from Friday 17th till Sunday 19th of November I will try to be active on the FM birds from the "Flemmish Space Days", which is a space event in Belgium with the aim of promoting space engineering & science, especially among schoolchildren. We will be there to promote the Delfi-C3 project, and if time premits I'll try to run some demos on AO-51 and SO-50 with an Arrow and HT. Look for ON/PE4WJ! 73, Wouter Jan Ubbels PE4WJ -- W.J.

EaglePedia Down for Maintenance
by Emily Clarke 15 Nov '06

15 Nov '06

EaglePedia will be undergoing a major upgrade beginning Wednesday, November 15. The new upgrade requires an upgrade to the database, and as a result access to EaglePedia is not possible during the conversion. As a result, EaglePedia will be offline during the upgrade. There will be additional upgrades following the database conversion that may also necessitate taking EaglePedia offline. I have put a status page in place of the EaglePedia main page. It will tell you what the current status is and give an estimate as to when we expect EaglePedia to return to online status. I apologize for any inconvenience. 73, Emily --------------------------------- N1DID formerly W0EEC - CM87tm Support Project OSCAR - http://www.projectoscar.net

AO-7 stretch footprint
by w7lrd＠comcast.net 15 Nov '06

15 Nov '06

Hello I am looking for anyone in the norhern part of JA or northern Europe who can "see" Seattle Washington. I did this back in the day of RS-15. It was and is quite a challange to "squeeze" out a 45 second QSO. As I remember it took almost four weeks of attempts. Could we designate a "DX" watering hole on AO-7 for foot print stretchers? I suppose if it were easy everyone would be doing it. 73 Bob W7LRD Seattle
