It's always nice (and often refreshing) when we actually talk about satellites and technology here on the -BB.
BTW, I really am interested in using Echolink or IRLP for a new AMSAT net.
Anyone else interested?
Jeff,
Yes, kind of refreshing. Recently I proposed a coordination and scheduling net for VHF+ weak-signal enthusiasts to be held on IRLP. It would provide a bridge between Alaskans and hams in the Pacific NW that share an interest in long-distance VHF/UHF/Microwave modes between us. But I guess the idea was before its time as it was met by indifference and the few the replied were split on liking the idea.
Your ideas of an Amsat IRLP Net is an excellent use for IRLP.
