SAT Grid Chasers, My annual Fall Grid Trip will be early this year due to other upcoming personal plans. Between 9/5 and 9/11, I'll travel from Ohio north to Sault St. Marie and make a loop through the following Grids: EN76/86/87/88/98/99/89/79/78/77 Operation will be on FO29, SO50 and AO7. I may check out a couple XW's before I leave to see if I can work them. I usually go about 15 KHz up from center on Linear SATs. I'll be moving across a lot of territory, so some Grids may only be operated ONCE. However, I HOPE to work as many folks as possible that NEED these Grids. C U Soon, 73, Bob K8BL P.S. I have a low tolerance level for rude/inconsiderate operations on Single-Channel SATs. If I encounter too much of it, I'll just go QRT on them.
This posting got me to thinking.
Is there a list of active stations?
Say you are working on WAS or similar awards, and you need a certain state.
is there a list anywhere of active stations you could E-Mail to set up possible schedules etc.?

I can think of amsat-bb, AMSAT on Twitter, and the AMSAT-NA group on facebook.
