Wondering why all the hoopla about any of the satellites being in any mode. AMSAT receives only about 15 entries for field day. The rest must be doing only demos or making the one bonus contact. With hundreds of field day stations on the air we should have way more entries.

The few entries you get are from folks like my club K4CQ. The club is not interested in the Amsat Field Day. They allow me space on the tower to mount the antennas because it gets them the ARRL bonus points. I do it with hopes of influencing someone to become interested in Amsat. Has not happened as yet. I wont be in town this year for the operation so it wont get done. Guess you will have one less score to add in this year. I will miss the fun.
