Hi Clint !
Congratulations for your next 89th Sat session at Palm Springs, will sure spread satellite passion to new breed, we appreciate that.
To possibly assist your "Work Ham Satellites With Your HT" presentation, perhaps you can show real time availability of ham satellites.
Thru http://lu7abf.com.ar/pass.htm , that works on any portable device (smartphones/tablets) as well as any Op. System in Mac's or PC's.
Also useful as a graphical education tool to simplify and ease understanding of Ham's satellite tracking that could operate offline or online.
Wishing good success at Palm Spring HamFest, with thanks for your your long standing compromise with Sat amateur community.
73, lu7abf, Pedro Converso

I will be conducting my 89th "How to Work Ham Satellites With Your HT" presentation at the Palm Springs HamFest on Saturday, February 4, 2017. Show opens at 9AM. The satellite presentation is at 11AM. Your admission allows access to the marvelous Palm Springs Air Museum exhibits, too! And did I mention FREE PARKING???
One lucky attendee of my sat session will "win" a brand new Arrow Satellite Antenna. Several others will leave with mousepads that have 8x10" copies of extraordinary NASA photographs - just for participating in the Q&A and answering trivia questions.
The HamFest's Web site is at ...

Kids under 12 years of age admitted FREE! And kids who visit my exhibitor table will receive a free NASA photograph.
Hope to see you in Palm Springs February 4, 2017!
