Hopefully I will be back on L/V Thursday also, still unpacking from my yearly trip south....

If the switch to L Band on AO-92 is successful, please listen Friday morning for N1JEZ/8 from EM79 at Microwave Update. The first at ~ 10:37 local is only 10 degrees. I expect there could be blockage from surrounding buildings. The second at ~ 12:10 local is 39 degrees and should be good.
We will be testing a prototype L Band antenna from WA5VJB. It should be fun! Tnx to Drew and AMSAT for making the switch.

Good Afternoon all, This week we will be doing some a few things with AO-92 out of the ordinary.
Second, at the request of the folks at Microwave Update, we will switch to L/v Thursday night for 24 hours. It is my understanding there will be some testing of new antennas for the L band uplink at their antenna range onsite. I don't anticipate to run L/v on Sunday as normal.
