ARRL instructor and AMSAT-NA Ambassador Clint Bradford, K6LCS, will be presenting his "Working Amateur Satellites With Your HT” session at the Saturday, August 15, 2020 meeting of the Team Radio GA in southeast Georgia. The session will begin at 9AM Georgia time.
Team Radio GA (TRGA) is a growing ARES / EmComm group, whose region covers the ARRL’s District 8 in Georgia. Led by Jerome Erickson KK1JE, TRGA was featured in the July, 2020 issue of the ARRL Georgia Section’s newsletter, “Georgia on My Mind.”
The groups Jerome has organized focus on digital and emergency communications. Refreshingly, Jerome told the newsletter editor, “I believe that the privilege to operate on the many frequencies we are granted we should make an effort to give back to our communities through radio communications.”

Clint K6LCS has made it his mission in his amateur radio life to show hams that they really can work a few FM voice satellites with equipment they probably already own. To that end, he has given his presentation more than 100 times to audiences who genuinely desire to expand their ham experience - to clubs, conventions, and hamfests in North America and Canada.
An attendee of Clint’s session at the club a couple years ago wrote:
"K6LCS gave a fantastic presentation on amateur satellites. It was most informative and entertaining. Clint's passion for the subject was evident, and I would imagine that the club members individually and or in a group will be eager to try satellite contacts in the near future.
“We will be using Zoom Video Communications to conduct our session,” Clint advises. “I would much rather be in a room, LIVE, with my audience, but it’s cheaper with Zoom than air fare to Savannah's International Airport … “
Clint always welcomes questions before his presentations. Leave him a voicemail at (909) 999-SATS or send email to: k6lcs@ham-sat.info
