W9AE replies:
I've seen AMSAT net announcement messages for years, and NEVER understood them. The messages never specify a terrestrial frequency or an amateur satellite. This leads me to the conclusion that the AMSAT net doesn't use ham radio as the communications medium.
What communications medium is used to conduct the AMSAT net?
Is it on a 2-way channel on a commercial satellite? Is it on the Internet? What is REF 60B?
If the AMSAT net doesn't use ham radio, why not?
Please explain...
