I am overwhelmed by my proposal to initiate some special days to celebrate and Oscar 1 anniversary. Rob's idea to do it over a five day period is very thoughtful, with LEO's...

And specially pleased that some of the responses came from (as indicated by the callsigns) younger amateurs.

I thank you one and all, again...

We have almost a year left before the next event, I will attempt to formulate the procedure. Get opinions from anyone who wishes to contribute, and keep all informed...

This is a busy season for all, so hang in there, guys, and I will do my best to initiate for AMSAT-NA. I will attempt the formulation, but need all of your help...

Again I thank Rob, G8ATE, for doing it this year, and hope world-wide AMSAT's initiate the same procedures. If we had a HEO we could respond to one callsign, but let us assume that by next year we will be lucky enough to have some of the LEO's we have now.

I am fully aware that digital procedures would permit worldwide coverage, but in the spirit of the "early birds" I think ssb or fm voice, or cw would be most appropriate...

Let me know next year! I intend to put it mostly to bed for the remainder of 2007, this household is pretty busy until 2jan08!!
