Hello all, I decided to listen in on the contact between K2ZRO (Kopernik Observatory) and I believe RS0ISS. The astronaut was Gennady Padalka.

Question pool and more information on it is here http://www.southgatearc.org/news/2015/july/ariss_event_0907.htm#.VaCbMvmZPs1 . I picked it up very strong on my handheld with a rubber duck. Hope you guys enjoyed it. 73's KE8AKW

W5PFG/P DM9x/8x grids next week
by Clayton Coleman 11 Jul '15

11 Jul '15

13-17 July, I will be out in the Texas Panhandle near the DM84/85/94/95 line (Amarillo, TX.) I am not bringing all my usual gear -- just FM. Listen for me on daytime SO-50 passes if you need any of those grids. I have operated from many of these grids a dozen times and I'll be back again so don't worry if this trip doesn't fit into your schedule. 73 Clayton W5PFG

Field Day Submissions
by Bruce 09 Jul '15

09 Jul '15

For those of you that only worked one or two stations on the satellite or if you worked 10, 20, 50 or more stations, please still submit your scores for Field Day. Although the form online at http://www.amsat.org (click on the Events tab and then the Field Day link) is in PDF format, you can copy and paste the submission portion into Word (amazing how they migrate back and forth). Or you can download the DOCX file from me at http://www.amsatnet.com/fd2015.docx Please remember that ARRL submissions are due much later than our submission date. I must have your submission received by 11:59 PM Central Time on July 13, 2015 (Monday). I then have less than a week to tabulate and write the article for the journal. Please include any pictures that will show off your field day site. We have had flamingos, long horn steers, clocks running on lemons, campers, ladder towers and all kinds of neat stuff in the past. I will confirm that I have received your submission, usually sometime that day. If you do not hear from me, please send to my other email address, or send to both at the same time. kk5do(a)arrl.net kk5do(a)amsat.org 73...bruce -- Bruce Paige, KK5DO AMSAT Director Contests and Awards ARRL Awards Field Checker (WAS, 5BWAS, VUCC), VE Houston AMSAT Net - Wed 0100z on Echolink - Conference *AMSAT* Also live streaming MP3 at http://www.amsatnet.com Podcast at http://www.amsatnet.com/podcast.xml or iTunes Latest satellite news on the ARRL Audio News http://www.arrl.org AMSAT on Twitter http://www.twitter.com/amsat
