Also teach them... No need to work the same person everyday, every pass on FM... sure you wanna do the on SSB birds, enjoy your ragchew. But the ops who seem to find it necessary to make the SAME QSO EVERY DAY on FM need to move on....

Please stress the proper operating procedures when using a single channel Satellite so the existing chaos and mayhem can eventually be abated. One of the biggest problems is that many Stations are not allowing an existing QSO to finish before transmitting on top of it. This causes repeats which uses up the short time the Satellite is available for other Stations.

"I really enjoyed Clint’s presentation last night. The fact that he had taken the time to research and know something about his audience and welcomed interaction made it very informative and enjoyable. This was a refreshing change from many canned YouTube presentations I’ve tried to watch, which were poorly done, fuzzy video or muddy audio, or a badly prepared presenter stumbling his way through, with any valuable info lost along the way. Thanks for hooking this one up.”
Think a 90-minute informative and FUN Zoom presentation on getting started working the ham satellites would be appropriate for your club?
I have dates set for these locales in the next few weeks …
New Jersey Central New Hampshire North Carolina Conejo Valley CA Sonoma County CA Massachusetts Antelope Valley CA
Let me know if your club may be interested!
