New year wishes

Happy new year 2007 to all. Hoping 2007 will bring the amateur radio satellite community his first HEO. For those who wants to view HAM video you can click on this link. Too bad if there is not a bit about amateur satellite... even if they refer to VOIP communication... There is also a bunch of stuff on amateur radio there.

Hello everyone, I have an extra fiberglass crossboom for sale. I'll double-check all of the specs today, but IIRC it's 1-1/4" OD and about 6 feet long. Shipping will be via UPS, and should run $10 or so in the Continental US. If interested, contact me off list with an offer to k0kn at amsat dot org... Paypal preferred.

HELP !!!

Own a Yaesu 5400 rotor. Having a problem with getting it to work and calibrate. When I turn it on the needles are pinned to the left not the center where they belong. Further, the elevation rotor does not work at all while the azimuth does turn but I don't know where it is pointing because of the control box malfunction. Any words of wisdome are appreciated. Tnx es 73. Joe......W8JXM __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

Corot Space Telescope
by John Wright 28 Dec '06

28 Dec '06

Following what appears to have been a successful launch of the new French Corot Space telescope into a polar orbit yesterday, are there any frequencies that we can listen to? The keps are on celestrak under the last 30 days launch section.
