I posted the new schedule for August late last night. This time around we had _seven_ specific requests and filled all of them. There are several grid expeditions and cruises that will be on AO-51 in August, both in North America and Europe, that requested "normal" V/U repeater mode. We've also scheduled some L/U and L/S time for the adventurous. Eclipses are getting shorter this month, so expect to see the downlink power move up in response.
Please send your requests for September to [email protected] for consideration.
Thanks and 73, Drew KO4MA AMSAT-NA VP Ops
