I hope that AMSAT NA does not use an 70cm uplink, because that band is not available for transmitting in all areas of the US. I live near Cape Cod, MA and 70cm is not available for transmitting because of PAVE PAWS.

Hi Fred:

I don't think PAVE PAWS prohibits transmission, it only affected repeater operation. At least I haven't heard anything regarding that, and I was fairly active on 70cm until last Monday when W1WNS/R was PAVE PAWSed.
