Just relaying this from the news on QRZ.com. SouthGate ARC site was mentioned also ...
The subject for this week's "Technology Net" is Understanding and working the Amateur Satellites, presented by Ron Nutter, KA4KYI.
Being the AMSAT Area Coordinator for Missouri, Ron will introduce you to all the AMSAT Satellites as well as the many Satellites launched by other groups around the world. Having made contacts himself to all states in the Continental U.S. he'll explain every combination of equipment to work the birds from handheld to mobile to fixed location. He'll explain how and what you'll need to get into one of the most exciting forms of Amateur Radio.

There will be a question and answer period at the end of his presentation for you to ask any questions you have.
