What ever happened to the idea--I think it was floated in an AMSAT newsletter a few years ago--of linking two satellites with a combined larger footprint?  This would certainly help me achieve WAS from Maine FN54, where the problem is and always be Hawaii.

Speaking of WAS "SAT," a dumb question now--but will the moon ever be considered a "satellite," for the WAS SAT award?  If it is, EME just might be the only way I'll make WAS SAT.  I'm stuck at 49.  But then again, it's "location, location, location" as real estate agents say, and I can't complain, being able to work deep into EU and rack up DXCC entities from there.  DXCC SAT appears to be a realistic goal with MEO sats, given enough time and activation from rarer entities.  (Thank you, K3TRM, DL4EA and 4O4A, among others!).
