Hi!

A reminder that AMSAT will have a booth at the Palm Springs Hamfest on Saturday, 4 February 2017. More information about the hamfest is available at its web site:

http://www.palmspringshamfest.com/

During the day, there will be demonstrations of satellite operating using satellites in different modes. I hope to be able to have these demonstrations to show off operating in FM, SSB, and packet. If you hear me on during any of these passes during Saturday, please call and be a part of the demonstrations. Any QSOs will be uploaded to Logbook of the World after the hamfest, and QSL cards are available on request. The hamfest site is in grid DM13rt, at the Palm Springs Air Museum along Gene Autry Trail, south of the I-10 freeway.

For up-to-the-minute news on demonstrations and other AMSAT activities at the hamfest, I will tweet using my @WD9EWK Twitter feed. If you do not use Twitter, you can still view these updates and any photos I tweet in a web browser at:

Thanks again to Rick Fearns and the hamfest committee of the Palm Springs Hamfest for extending an invitation for AMSAT to be a part of this event.

73!
