Grid squares in Georgia
by Will Griffin 28 Feb '10

28 Feb '10

Hey guys! I'm pretty new to working satellites so I have the bug real bad. As the weather begins to warm up I will be doing a lot of travel around Georgia and east Alambama visiting friends and family. I know that Georgia is not the ends of the earth, but since I have been working satellites I have never heard another operator from the state. If you need any grids throughout the state, let me know and I will make it a point to drive through them and work a bird while I'm traveling. I live on the boundry of EM92 and EM92 so if you need those grids, consider it done. What do yall think? Will KJ4PSU

Recording, AO-51 V/S 23:25 pass?
by George Henry 27 Feb '10

27 Feb '10

Anybody have a recording of the 23:25 pass of AO-51 in mode V/S? I was so busy juggling two radios & waving a hand-held K5GNA downconverter (w/ corner reflector) around, I forgot to write down the call of the station in EM13 that I worked... And thanks Allen, Angelo, and Leo for the contacts!! I haven't been on V/S since Field Day a couple of years ago, forgot how un-crowded it is! George, KA3HSW

Planet Pseudo-Keps
by Jeff Yanko 27 Feb '10

27 Feb '10

A few weeks ago somebody posted pseudo-keps to the -bb and from the looks of the queries and comments, many have installed them on their tracking programs. Which brings to question. Are there any pseudo-keps for the planets? 73, Jeff WB3JFS

working FO-29
by Bill Dzurilla 27 Feb '10

27 Feb '10

I tried to work FO-29 for the first time since it started working again but must be doing something wrong. I could hear several stations loud and clear but could not hear my own downlink. My radio is working fine with the other sats, so it must be someone particular to FO-29. Did perhaps the uplink change frequency or something? 73, Bill NZ5N
