Hi!
I received this earlier today from Craig KL4E, who is going to have a satellite demonstration Wednesday evening (Thursday, on the UTC clock) on two AO-51 passes. Here's a good way to help him, and - if you need it - an Alaskan contact via satellite.
Good luck and 73!

Hello Everyone >>>
The Anchorage Amateur Radio Club (AARC) is hosting General Class upgrade training at the American Red Cross building on Wednesday evenings during most of January. This Wednesday evening, January 24th, we would like to present the excitement of amateur radio space communications to the many students present.
Would you please consider coming up on AO-51 in standard VHF-UHF FM voice mode on either or both of the passes beginning at 1830L and 2008L Alaska Standard Time (0330 and 0508 UTC Thursday, 25 January)?
Thank you very much for your support of our amateur radio satellite communications program. Please e-mail or call me anytime at (907) 694-4730 for additional information or to schedule Alaskan satellite contacts.
Best 73,
Craig Bledsoe, KL4E
